"It's only because I opened my big mouth and said we were going to get 20 million [viewers]. If I hadn't said that, everybody would be saying the show was a huge success."
You, Simon? A big mouth? Get out.

Rumor has it that Mariah Carey, Katy Perry and even Nicki Minaj are in talks to join the judging panel of the X Factor.

Simon Cowell must have had a really bad day on the ‘X-Factor’, because from the looks of it, he went storming around the set, saying ‘You’re fired!’ to everyone who crossed his path.
Reports surfaced this morning that Paula Abdul was out, and she responded to them in a statement.
“Yes, it’s true; I won’t be returning to The X-Factor next season.”

I think this is exactly what I would have seen with Nicole if she'd have been 20, auditioning for this show for the first time."

So in a nutshell, the show mentors some people who want to be famous, and then whoever wins gets a bunch of money and a recording contract with Syco/Sony Music. How is this different from Idol? Well, the prize is $5 million—five times as much as the American Idol prize. Oh, okay. I get it now.
Abdul says the performances are "Grammy-caliber." Does that mean someone's going to be rapping while half the song is bleeped out by censors? Or is someone going to announce their pregnancy during a performance?

“I am in love with the judges,” Sherzinger told Hollyscoop while celebrating her birthday at Marquee Dayclub at The Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas. “I love Paula, L.A. is a force to be reckoned with. Simon is Simon. Kind of brilliant.”
Looks like she already...
