Peter Andre is no liar

The singer defends himself after The X Factor deny they ever asked him to judge the Australian show.

Last month Mr Andre announced that he had turned down an offer from TV bosses as he didn’t want to be apart from his children. Now the Daily Star reports that a spokesperson for the X Factor has said that Andre had not been asked to be a judge “in any country”.

So Peter wrote in his New magazine column,  “The fact is that Fremantle, the company that co-produces the show in Australia, sent my manager Claire Powell an email to ask me if I’d be interested in joining the show about three weeks ago – I saw it with my own eyes.

“Why would I feel the need to make something like this up? It’s so weird when people will do anything to try and make you look stupid when all I was doing was telling the truth.

“Every week, Claire and I sit down and I look at all the projects I’ve been asked to get involved in, and we work out what’s possible and what’s not. I wish I’d never mentioned it now!”

Ah never mind Pete, we still love you.
