The busiest man on television is undoubtedly mogul Simon Cowell, who is wrapping his stint on "American Idol" and now focusing on the British reality TV series "The X Factor" where singers compete for a lofty prize.

Cowell is teasing out the names of high-profile stars to join the judging panel at The X-Factor auditions.

Cowell, 50, is tipping that singer Robbie Williams, Ronan Keating, Mel B and Paula Abdul are to be featured in guest judging spots on the panel.

Word is that Charlotte Church may also join them.

These guest judges will sit alongside Cowell, Cheryl Cole and Louis Walsh.

The show's fourth judge, Dannii Minogue, is due to give birth in July and on hiatus.

The Daily Mirror reports Cowell will mimic the popular move done in American Idol where a round robin of guests will sit in during audition weeks.
