Speaking recently to Digital Spy about this year's contestants, Dermot said: "It's really interesting, we went out and shot it in LA and as long as you pick the songs, there's some good singers out there.
"You have to make sure you're in the comfort zone but most of the people we had we were pleasantly surprised with. It might not work.
"We need to make a really fun Saturday night show. Whether we can find a recording artist, I have absolutely no idea. The chances are we probably won't but I love the idea of trying."
The X Factor: Celebrity begins on October 12 at 8.35pm on ITV.
