X Factor? I’m glad it all went wrong: Her eviction caused an outcry and left her fearing jail in Zimbabwe. Now Gamu’s back – and she doesn’t need Simon Cowell
The last time I interviewed Gamu Nhengu she was a broken 18-year-old, fearful of being deported from Britain to Zimbabwe to potentially face jail, or worse punishment, under Robert Mugabe’s regime.

It was October 2010 and the sobbing teenager was at the centre of a national controversy, quickly dubbed Gamugate, following her appearance on The X Factor.

Sharon Osbourne: Can she revive ‘The X Factor’?
All the signs point to Sharon Osbourne being announced very soon as a new judge on this year’s X Factor.

Simon Cowell is not known for his radical thinking (Mel B and Dannii Minogue appear to be on a constant conveyor belt around his various Got Talent and X Factor franchises) and bringing back his old pal Shazza, who he sat alongside on the panel for the first four series, looks close to set in stone.

Bringing Shazza back has some obvious plus points: Nostalgia. Fuzzy memories of the good old days when Si, Shaz and Lou-Lou larked about on Saturday nights.
