Simon Cowell lifts Calvin Harris’ X Factor ban

Simon Cowell has lifted Calvin Harris’ X factor ban, as he’s rumoured to appear on the Judges Houses round with Nicole Scherzinger.

The DJ was banned from the show by Simon Cowell after he jumped on stage during one of Jedward’s performances back in 2009.

“It was a long time ago and both have moved on so much since then,” a source said.

The judge had the ban lifted because he wants A-listers on board after he brought back the show’s original judges and host.

“Calvin is rightly regarded as one of the biggest artists in music due to his phenomenal chart success,” the source revealed to The Sun.

“Simon wants A-listers on board and made a beeline for Calvin, ensuring him there would be no issues after the Jedward row.”
