FURIOUS Simon Cowell last night called in the police over “fix” smears against Britain’s Got Talent.

A malicious internet campaign claims bosses have been “grooming” youngster Ronan Parke for the past two years in order to win this year’s show.

The slur spread like wildfire across the web yesterday morning, prompting Cowell’s production company Syco to contact Scotland Yard.

A BGT spokesperson said: “We will not tolerate unfounded claims such as this about the show.”

The 12-year-old singer sailed through to Saturday night’s live final after his stunning performance of Bob Dylan’s Make You Feel My Love wowed the show’s judges and helped him to top the public vote.

But the vile campaign, which was yesterday viewed by more than 140,000 people, suggested hot favourite Ronan had been signed up by Cowell’s company two years before his audition.

A BGT source said: “It’s sickening. A 12-year-old boy hoping to fulfil his dreams is being viciously attacked by someone who won’t even reveal his name. Simon wants this liar found. There are lots of people in the industry who are very jealous of Simon’s success.”

Meanwhile, Scottish singer Jai McDowall and comedy dancer Steven Hall last night went through to the final.

Jai was voted through by the public, while Steven got the nod from the judges over singer Edward Reid.

Cowell called it the week’s “weirdest” semi-final.

A bit over the top,still I guess it's more pubilicity which Simon craves and I guess some crediblitiy for Ronan is at stake too. So maybe it's the right thing to do.

If it's not true why all the trouble Sy? This is not the first time such things have been claimed, why are you getting your tight shirts in a twist now eh? eh? eh ?eh?

But someone must know who wrote it because in the article the person quoted something that someone else told them. So when that person reads the quote they'll be like oh **** son, I said that...oh **** I know who it is...SIIIIIIIMMMMOOONNNN I KNOW WHO IT BE

There is a lot of spin in this. The way I read the original piece they were attacking BGT and Simon Cowell not the boy.

What have the police got to do with anything. Let the police investigate REAL crime, not stupid celeb gossip.

Simon, hang your head in shame. You SHOULD be big enough to dismiss this story. Fool.

A very valid comment.
