Dannii Minogue is reported to be hopping mad after her move to the end of the panel of X Factor judges was made permanent this week.

The pop star-turned-reality judge was allegedly given just a few minutes notice that she was being swapped with Louis Walsh - so that she was at the opposite end of the panel from Simon Cowell.

And the Daily Mail claims that despite her making her unhappiness known to show bosses, 38-year-old Dannii is now expected to stay in the same spot for the rest of the series.

The Mail quoted a source as saying: "The situation is that the producers like the banter between Simon and Louis and wanted to move Louis up the panel. He livens things up, whereas having Cheryl and Dannii sitting together was getting a bit dull.

"But they also felt that Dannii and Simon give the most constructive comments on the show, so they would make good bookends, so Dannii is also somewhat a victim of her own success."

There is no suggestion that the move is a punishment for her comments about Simon's act Danyl Johnson's sexual preference a few weeks ago.

Dannii recently told how she posed nude for Playboy in the mid-90s to pay off her bills, and we've done a round-up of other stars who have also bared all for the title...
