"The X Factor" is reportedly bringing back pop legend Robbie Williams.
Williams has been lined up to accompany Sharon Osbourne to her Los Angeles home for The X Factor's upcoming Judges' Houses round, according to Digital Spy.
Osbourne will be judging the contestants this series - although this has not been confirmed by show bosses as of yet in spite of rumblings on social media.
While Williams has never been an official "X Factor" cast member, he was Osbourne's partner-in-crime for Judges' House during her last go-round on the show in 2013.
Williams also famously staged his 2009 comeback on "The X Factor" with an electrifying performance of his number-two single "Bodies".
The 42-year-old singer-songwriter isn't the only pop superstar apparently being lined up for Judges' House - as rumours persist that Louis Walsh will call in his old friend Shayne Ward.
