Gwen Stefani Rumored as X Factor Host

The X Factor carousel has stopped on Gwen Stefani.

One day after rumors surfaced that either Miley Cyrus or Demi Lovato would join Simon Cowell, L.A. Reid and Britney Spears on the season two panel, an insider tells The New York Post that this female singer is under consideration for a different role.

The singer would take over for Steve Jones, who was let go after a disappointing opening season.

A Fox insider says Stefani has been contacted, is interested and would seek compensation between $5-7 million.

“[Cowell] is feeling the pressure and knows only a big-time, well-respected name will do if he wants anyone to flip the channel from The Voice," the source claims, adding that the NBC hit may face off against The X Factor this fall.
