In the business of music talent shows, there’s always room for one more.
If Simon Cowell’s deal with Fox is a success, he’ll be the executive producer of a U.S. “X Factor.”
The Hollywood rumor mill churned all summer long about Simon Cowell’s “American Idol” contract with Fox, and it looks like a U.S. version of the UK’s “X Factor” will be thrown in to sweeten the deal.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Fox and Cowell are now said to be negotiating a deal that will not only lock Cowell in as an “Idol” judge through the 2011-12 season but will allow the acerbic arbiter to bring “X Factor” to U.S. audiences. He would serve as the executive producer.
