Former X Factor panelist Dannii Minogue is returning to British TV screens as a judge on Britain And Ireland's Next Top Model.

Minogue, 41, who last judged The X Factor in 2010 and runs a fashion label, will join host Elle Macpherson on the next series of the Sky Living show.

The petite star joked: "I am brushing up on my model moves and with my highest platform heels on.

"I am excited to come face to face with (well maybe look up to) the glamazons (in the show)."

The ninth series also features US model Tyson Beckford.

Australia's Got Talent judge Minogue co-founded fashion label Project D, which has been worn by the Duchess of Cambridge and Elizabeth Hurley.
