Simon cowell is pretty much the most famous judge in the world for all these worldwide lame ass talent shows that never really produce any real talent. Now the U.S. version of The X Factor will basically be American Idol 2.0 with Simon cowell as the head judge and Paula Abdul being on the panel as well. I think Paula's ship sailed a long ass time ago and she should just retreat to her mansion and drink her life away. I won't watch but there are a shitload of lazy, obese Americans who like nothing more than to stuff their face with ice cream and watch bullshit like this so I am sure it will be a hit in this great country of mine known as the U.S.A.
