Simon Cowell On Ellen DeGeneres

So many changes — and obviously Simon Cowell is commenting!
Simon opened up about Ellen DeGeneres, his former co-judge on American Idol, saying:
"As I got to know Ellen, I grew to really, really like her. I have huge respect for her because she's always been in control of her own destiny."
True!
As for the upcoming US version of The X Factor, Simon says it likely won't be on the air the same time as American Idol and the show is expected to launch next fall.
Which one are U going to watch?

Definitely XFactor. AI is on life support and the additional of Lopez and Tyler won't help it at all. They are both snooze-fest material.
None…everybody is tied of those shit shows…
ok,they will still insist on producing them…but I think people will abandon to watch them for good…ratings will get lower and lower..
it seems like nothing will help…the days are numbered
now there you go
why would you waste your time watching IDOL where people sing
if you can watch a show where they dance & sing and perform…
In Britain the X Factor is WAY better than Pop Idol was.
Yeah, I love her too. I'm glad she's bailing on Idol.
Which will I watch? American Idol or American Idol? How about neither
XFactor and I really hope Paula will be on X as well!! I love these two together!
Both! But I have a feeling that X Factor's gonna have many viewers.
Now that Ellen is gone, I may watch AI again. She should stay with daytime shows while I am working and do not have to see her.
Ummm yeah, would be really hard for those two shows to air at the same time anyway because the BOTH will air on Fox!!!
Well it's surely not going to be AI. With the new judges there is no way. An old long haired drugged out fuglier than fugly can be, skinny, weird with an annoying voice idiot and a middle aged wanna be lip sinc has been thought she could sing and act person. NO thank you. Gonna pass on this one.
I'm glad to see Ellen and DiGuardi get the ax!!!!!!!!!! Get the fuck out!
I think it would be funny to crop her hair and put it on his and vice versa. What do you think?
