Lisa chats to Simon Cowell about the X Factor

The new series of the The X Factor has already got the gossips going. Will Simon be back? Will the judges change? Has what happened to Susan Boyle changed Simon's mind about how to do things? Lisa found the answers to these questions and more when she caught with the definitive 'Mr Nasty'...

To hear the full interview with Lisa click the link on the right.

Simon reveals that in the early rounds of The X Factor the audience will now play a part in deciding who goes through. He said "What happened with Susan Boyle helped me change my mind about having an audience in the auditions. They sometimes see things the judges don't."

It's fair to say Simon seems pretty much convinced of his opinions (that is a polite way of putting it) , but Lisa gets this astonishing confession from him:

"I trust a crowd more than my own judgement."

Judges:

Lisa also asked Simon about changes to the judges, Simon confirmed "We'll have the same judges, myself, Cheryl, Dani and Louis." Find out what Simon had to say about the rumours buzzing around about Cheryl's salary by licking the link above to listen to the full interview.

  1. Due to experience of Simon cowell judgement about his decision of X factor he is basically honest and I would not mind being judged by him. Simon should not mind what people say about him because truth if bitter and people shy away from the truth.

  3. I feel that simon cowell has made the right decision about the X Factor. He is basically making the show like britains got talent, which i think is great .The general public can now have their imput on the show instead of shouting out at the TV. PS where can i get the tickets from?
