Would love to judge 'The X Factor': Kian Egan

London, Nov 15 (IANS) Irish Singer and television host Kian Egan says he would love to judge Britain's singing reality show "The X Factor".

The 32-year-old, who was member of band Westlife, has been following the show since it started.

"Being on 'The X Factor' judging panel would be an amazing gig and something I would thoroughly enjoy. It's an amazing TV show and a great one to be a part of," thesun.co.uk quoted Egan as saying.

"I certainly feel that since 'The X Factor' started, I've been around it and in it an awful lot," he added.

"I would hate to replace Louis Walsh. That would never be my intention," he said.
