" Gary Barlow has pulled out of an upcoming trip to film Judges&amp;#039; Houses for The X Factor. The judge was due to fly his contestants to Majorca to select acts for the live finals, but he has chosen to stay in Britain to comfort wife Dawn.  The couple announced on August 6 that they&amp;#039;d lost their baby daughter Poppy, who was delivered stillborn. Barlow, who will also miss today&amp;#039;s X Factor launch in London, will instead film Judges&amp;#039; Houses in the Home Counties. &amp;quot;The Majorca plan has been ditched. Gary is in no fit state to be out of the country. Everyone is completely behind whatever he wants to do,&amp;quot; a source told The Sun. &amp;quot;He has said that he will stick to the planned September 10 and 11 dates but now we are looking for a suitable venue near London.&amp;quot; Robbie Williams will once again appear as Barlow&amp;#039;s sidekick at Judges&amp;#039; Houses.   Meanwhile, Nicole Scherzinger has failed to secure Tinie Tempah as her guest judge in Dubai and will instead be joined by Ne-Yo. Tempah is still in talks with producers, being one of two artists in the running to accompany Tulisa Contostavlos in St Lucia. 50 Cent is the other artist in talks to join the show, after he recently expressed an interest in working with Contostavlos. The X Factor premieres on ITV1 this Saturday at 8pm. Photo gallery - The X Factor series nine promo shots:  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
