As he steps up to replace Simon Cowell
Take That's Gary Barlow is set to earn 1.5 million pounds for his new role as X Factor judge, it has been reported.
The singer has been offered the sum to replace Simon Cowell as head judge on the X Factor, The Sun reports.
''Gary Barlow is the first person confirmed. Gary is not exactly a D-list celebrity so hiring him comes with a cost. With Cheryl and Simon out of the picture there was some decent cash to hire big names,'' a source told The Sun.
As previously reported on Gigwise, Gary Barlow and Louis Walsh are now the only two confirmed judges for the new series of the show.
Cheryl Cole is sitting on the X Factor USA panel alongside Simon Cowell, Paula Abdul and LA Reid.
