Chrissy Teigen battling Khloe Kardashian to host ‘X Factor’


With reports of Khloe Kardashian being the front-runner to host “The X Factor,” Page Six is exclusively reporting that her biggest rival is gorgeous swimsuit model Chrissy Teigen.

Sources close to the show tell Page Six that John Legend’s girlfriend is currently a favorite for the high-profile hosting gig.

Teigen, who made her debut in Sports Illustrated’s Swimsuit Issue in 2010, naturally tested well for the camera but sources say that her feisty personality was also a factor. Teigen has a popular Twitter feed like:

“Just learned that teig means "dough" in German. So my last name is "of dough" which is awesome.”

And, “Tomorrow we're testing a low-carb fried chicken recipe for me. It is coated in.....drumroll please....PORK RINDS.”

If reports are accurate, producers are leaning towards the reality star because of her large following. TMZ recently revealed that the reality star has “at least an 85% chance” to get the job.

The show’s producers, including Simon Cowell, reportedly think that the “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” star is the best pick since judges Britney Spears and Demi Lovato also share Kardashian’s fan base.

But Teigen has her own huge following and, sources say, is a natural on camera, while Kardashian is more used to a semi-scripted reality show format rather than live TV.

Producers will have to make the decision soon, as the live shows will begin airing next month.

Oh god, pick Chrissy. Anyone who follows her twitter knows that she is clearly the best choice.
whitegirlmob 8th-Sep-2012 10:47 pm (UTC)
Huh? Who is that other woman and why would Khloe be involved in the X-Factor? Her face or personality doesn't sell shit. Is this show dying?
haverchuck_bill 8th-Sep-2012 10:50 pm (UTC)
I would just hope that she doesn't baby voice the whole thing.
flaca 8th-Sep-2012 10:53 pm (UTC)
you know she would

she does it when she's around lamlam or when she's trying to be cute
fiercenessness 8th-Sep-2012 10:48 pm (UTC)
Ooh she's the one who went off on all those Chris Brown stans that one night. I'd like her to be the host! She's attractive and genuinely seems like a nice person.

whitegirlmob 8th-Sep-2012 10:53 pm (UTC)
Ya, I'm on her twitter page rn and I'm not impressed. They're all filled with shit like:

Mom: "why every bicycle have no wheel when locked up?" me: "because they take it off" mom : "so they go around w a wheel?" "great question"

Not all that fun

why.

she's kinda rude on her blog. someone pointed out her 'terrorist' comment and she started effing and blinding.
kiran59 8th-Sep-2012 10:50 pm (UTC)
I had no interest in X-factor really, but I love Chrissy and if this helps her get a cooking show where she drinks and cooks and John sings the theme? I'm in.

If that show existed I would watch it on repeat until I died.
groffiswin 8th-Sep-2012 10:50 pm (UTC)
Get Victoria Justice instead imho
false_hate 8th-Sep-2012 10:54 pm (UTC)
I think she'll be too busy with Fun Size promotions
groffiswin 8th-Sep-2012 11:00 pm (UTC)
true

I just want the Victorious kids to succeed, you know? Isn't Ariana Grande trying to break the pop music scene or sth rn? That'd be excellent promo for her. Same goes for Avan and queen Liz.

Chrissy Teigen should win.
im_a_lewser 8th-Sep-2012 10:52 pm (UTC)
i'm not sure either one of them would be a good fit...

chrissy might have the edge though since she went off on all those chris brown stans.

also, i just watched 'think like a man' yesterday and that song john legend has on the soundtrack is pure perfection!
flaca 8th-Sep-2012 10:52 pm (UTC)
chrissy would be such a better choice based on personality alone.

people are going to mock the whole "she's only known on twitter/being john legend's wife" while khloe is a kardashian, but chrissy would actually do a really good, entertaining job of hosting, as opposed to khloe who would be OTT and baby-voiced, ugh.
whitegirlmob 8th-Sep-2012 10:54 pm (UTC)
Oh holy shit. I thought they were being called in as judges. Makes so much more sense now.
mrskulash 9th-Sep-2012 12:01 am (UTC)
am i the only person who knew teigen as an SI swimsuit model before finding out she's popular on twitter and engaged to john legend
flaca 9th-Sep-2012 02:56 am (UTC)
no i did to sal, lol, i just meant the general public
brucelynn 8th-Sep-2012 10:53 pm (UTC)
Chrissy Teigen is so annoying on twitter now


I loved when she dragged those crazy Chris Brown stans tho
blessedbell 8th-Sep-2012 10:56 pm (UTC)
that was fantastic.
shortliljackers 8th-Sep-2012 10:53 pm (UTC)
i have such a crush on chrissy. she's fabulous. khloe would be good for the job too, though.
between_lights 8th-Sep-2012 10:54 pm (UTC)
I love Chrissy and find Khloe incredibly irritating so I hope Chrissy gets it.
