The judges from The X Factor -- Simon Cowell, Nicole Scherzinger, L.A. Reid and Paula Abdul -- appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Monday, where the gorgeous ex-Pussycat Doll "owned [up to her] decision" to defer the vote of Rachel Crow to viewers, who promptly sent the emotional 13-year-old home.

"It's crazy, because in the moment and under pressure, it's not as easy to just be like, 'Hey, this what I'm going to do and you're going home' and you have to say, 'I'm sending you home,'" the Jai Ho singer told Kimmel. "I owned the decision that I made right then."

Scherzinger added, "I'm really happy for Rachel because I think she has a deal with Disney now."

X Factor Favorite Melanie Amaro Hopes Win Will Save Parents' Home From Foreclosure


Posted on Dec 11, 2011 @ 02:23PM - 4 comments

By Radar Staff

Melanie Amaro is not only Simon Cowell's preference to win The X Factor. Sportsbook.com has made her the odds on favorite to take home the $5 million, five-year recording contract.

And if she does, one of the first things the 19-year-old Florida girl will do is help out her struggling parents.

Debra and Hipolito Amaro live in a two-bedroom house in Sunrise, Florida, the same home where Melanie was raised. Dad had a long period of unemployment and the house -- the value of which has dropped from the $265,000 they paid to under $100,000 -- has been in foreclosure.

Hipolito recently landed a job as a maintenance foreman and Debra has a sales clerk position, but they're living "oaycheck to paycheck," she tells The Miami Herald .

That will change if Melanie does win.

"She can do whatever she wants with the money," her proud dad said. “But she knows we think it’d be really nice if she can take care of us a little bit.”

After last week's shocking elimination of fan favorite, 13-year-old Rachel Crow, the buzz for the show has never been greater.

The X Factor winner will be announced live December 22.
