'Glee' Star Rumored to Host 'X Factor'

Kevin McHale joins Khloe Kardashian and others on list of reported possibilities

Kevin McHale might be the perfect option for a new "X Factor" co-host, which is the latest gossip being reported by TV Guide. After all, the "Glee" star, best known as that show's wheelchair-bound academic decathlete Artie Abrams, already has a veritable six degrees of separation from the reality talent competition. 

In a past life, McHale was a member of boy band NLT, who at one point opened for ex-"X Factor" judge Nicole Scherzinger's Pussycat Dolls. Not only that, but he co-emceed this year's Teen Choice Awards with, who else, Scherzinger's ostensible replacement, Demi Lovato.
 
 
As for who he'd potentially share the stage with, rumored female hosts have included Khloe Kardashian and Stacy Keibler. In either of those scenarios, McHale will look very, very tiny by comparison.

We'll be sure to update you soon as gossip becomes reality.
 
"X Factor" Season 2 premieres Wednesday, Sept. 12, at 8 p.m. ET/PT on FOX.

A DASH sister hosting the Factor? It was pretty bad last season with Abdul and Scherzinger crying and displaying their stupidity and "dinginess" on national TV, but no one will ever take this show seriously again if you allow that media whore to actually speak on a national network. This is not even worth being a rumor, if it is indeed one.
