Now that the audition stages of this year's The X Factor are OVER, the competition is about to seriously heat up, with the savage Six Chair Challenge taking place this weekend. And now that it has been confirmed which categories each judge will look after, One Direction fans are CONVINCED that Liam Payne will be joining his pal Louis Tomlinson at the Judges' Houses.
Despite Niall Horan more or less confirming he was set to join Louis a few months back, Liam has been dropping some MAJOR hints that it is in fact him that could be appearing as the guest judge. After Liam posted a snap of himself chilling at an airport, fans were quick to speculate that he could be flying out to Ibiza, where Louis' Judges' Houses filming is reportedly taking place.
These reports were then fueled EVEN further when a fan of Liam bumped into him at Ibiza airport, with the 'Strip That Down' singer happily posing for a selfie. The fan wrote on his account, 'Off to Ibiza with my mate @liampayne #onedirection #liampayne #holidays #vacation #mode #eivissa #tbt #partynonstop #directioners'. sic
One Direction fans went into complete meltdown at the news, with many commenting on the photo. One user wrote, 'Omg is he going to be louis' guest judge?!?? 😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️', with another adding, 'IT'S HAPPENING'.
A third excited fan then added, 'Yess Liam and Louis reunion on X Factor!'.
