We’re hearing that Corbin Bleu of High School Musical fame is close to inking a deal to be the co-host for the U.S. version of X Factor alongside Pussycat Dolls’ Nicole Scherzinger.

Sources are emphasizing that both Corbin and Nicole are close to finalizing their deal with producers to host X Factor, but are not final decisions as hosts.

Time is running out though. A decision needs to be made by May 8th, when production begins shooting in front of judges.

We actually think Corbin and Nicole would be fantastic hosts together for this type of a show! What do you think of them?
