Simon Cowell leaves the X Factor (UK)

[cub]

I know this is the Mail, but it looks pretty conclusive that Simon Cowell has left the UK X Factor.

Boo-hoo.

[Marsh.]

End the show, ITV, end the show.

[Doogle]

Should've ended after Leona. She will always remain the main winner of the show in my eyes.

[Jack_]

No Simon, no show. What utter ****.

[Kerry]

Wanna make up their/his mind. It was announced last week he was doing both the UK and USA versions

[Stacey.]

It'd be **** without Simon.

[Tom4784]

I'll believe it when I see it, I really don't think he'd risk it.

[Jordan.]

Don't care, all he did was arse lick Cheryl for the last two years. Dannii and Louis are the real judges.

[cub]

He'll turn up on the last few live shows, I'd guess. And definitely the winners show - he may even announce the winner.

I have no inside knowledge of course.

[Zippy]

If Simon goes then it should end IMHO.

Its his show and, love or hate him, nobody else has his presence. Certainly not Louis! I don't wanna see Louis and Dannii as head judges suddenly. And God knows who else theyll bring in.

best to just end it and ITV then come up with a new show.

He had lost his edge, definitely last year anyway.

I think he maybe knew it was his last series. He was the same on the last AI. Later he said that he was tuned out for the series because he'd moved on mentally already.

:bawling:

no Simon, no show

well, maybe it has run it's course now anyway?

[mkdfan]

Yea it might as well be cancelled now, his is the only opinion that matters.

he was a useless judge last year imo.

[Jords]

Didnt we know this months ago, or this just confirmation?

[Jords]

Anyway I think BGT and now TXF are killed this year.

[Locke.]

As long as Cheryl and Louis stay it is ok.

This.

He hasnt been the same since cheryl came at all. He just goes on like a lovesick puppy and seems actually scared to air his true views now, once upon a time that was what I loved about him, his honesty.

I agree. I miss when it was just Simon, Sharon and Louis. At least then Simon wouldn't be afraid to speak his mind. It's so obvious sometimes that he hates a certain act just from his facial expressions yet he'll refuse to slate them because he sits next to Cheryl.

[bbfan1991]

Meh not bothered, actually agreed with Cheryl quite a bit last series:shocked: (was tough liking Cher and Katie). Dannii irritated me a little bit but Louis is there doing his annual WUM role and he doesn't care:joker:.

Would love Sharon to come back, not gonna happen though..

'End the X Factor'? I see none of you have any business acumen. You do realise how much this show makes for ITV?
