The Sugababes have criticised new 'X Factor' judge Cheryl Cole, saying that she doesn't have enough experience to take part in the show.

Keisha Buchanan told The Mirror: "Actually, I would have preferred Boy George.

"He has got so much more experience, and so many more years behind him. I think he would have been much better as the judge."

Her bandmate Amelle Berrabah also said: "Yeah, Boy George has generations more on her."

"Not that Cheryl hasn't got any experience, but someone who has been going for as long as he has should have been given a chance."
