?Oh my God,? the 45-year-old said on-air with a laugh. ?No, I?m not a judge on 'The X Factor.'?
?You?re not currently a judge on 'The X Factor,'? responded Cooper.
?No, I am not,? said Jackson. ?But that?s all I really think I should say.?

Any talks are currently in the preliminary stages, as Simon Cowell holds meetings this week with potential candidates to fill the shoes of ousted judges Paula Abdul and Nicole Scherzinger and host Steve Jones.
Another source tells THR that pop bad girl Pink is high on Cowell?s wish list. The singer, whose real name is Alicia Moore, has credibility, Grammy awards and sass, plus ?she can take on Simon.? Cowell also has acknowledged an interest in ?I Kissed a Girl? singer Katy Perry, telling "Extra," ?I worked with Katy once. I think she would be fun because she is hard -- in a good way -- and she?s feisty.?
?She would be great,? he continued. ?In terms of experience, success ... brilliant.?
