Howard Stern Criticizes Simon Cowell For Hiring Britney Spears!

Loud mouth Howard Stern is now criticizing Simon Cowell for hiring Britney Spears for America’s The X-Factor and he thinks that she will be a got damn “train wreck” on the show. Yes oh yes she will. But oh Howard, this is all about television ratings, NOT for who will be the best judge!

Stern tells Access Hollywood, “Britney still thinks the Earth is flat. Listen, I think we’re going to tune in to see her, if she can sort of function through the thing… As far as any real criticism, I think Simon and (fellow judge) L.A. Reid will be doing that. I think Britney is going to stand there and eat a lollipop and wear a sexy outfit. I don’t anticipate great opinions out of her. I think she’s going to sit there like J.Lo (American Idol judge Jennifer Lopez) and (say), ‘Oh, you’re wonderful. You’re terrific. Do you think I could get a perfume endorsement out of this? You think I could perform on the show?’ I think that’s what it’s about… I’ll tune in to see what kind of train wreck she is, absolutely.”

Well he does have a point. I know I’ll be watching just to see if Britney can fully function because really, when was the last time we’ve actually heard the girl talk?

Britney Spears Is About To Make It Rain

Simon Cowell is obviously not paying any attention to me, because I have just learned that not only is he trying to snag the grand dame of the Louisiana swamps for X Factor, but he is also in negotiations to pay the lip-syncing pop star upwards of $15 million dollars for next season.

As I type this, Britney’s handlers are working out the small print of the deal, but it is basically a foregone conclusion that she will be judging the show next season, replacing one of the seats left vacant by Paula Abdul and Nicole Scherzinger. The final contract must go through several people before it is approved – namely Britney’s father, who is conservator over her and her estate, as well as the judge that oversees the conservatorship. Britney’s soon to be husband is also reportedly playing a prominent role in the negotiations.

Simon Cowell, the X Factor executive producer, said this week: “I would love to have her on the show. I think she would be a fascinating person to sit next to.”

I can read between the lines. This is what he really means…

“I cannot wait to get that crazy, country ass bumpkin on live TV. Hopefully, her brain will split into a million pieces on air and we can get the ratings I need!”

Simon said an announcement could come within the week.

Excuse me, but wasn’t it Cowell himself that said a few weeks ago that he would never shell out that much money to one celebrity judge because it was not in the budget? How quickly times change. The good thing is that by snatching up Britney, you’re getting more than one person…on a good day, you could have several faces of cray cray. The other good bad news is that there is only a 7-second time delay on live TV.

For $15 million dollars a year, Britney better bring the crazy, because anything less deserves a full refund!

SAVE A HEAUX: An Open Letter to Simon Cowell

Because yes, folks, it’s true. A heaux can be either gender and by far the heaux of the moment appears to be the only man in Hollywood with titty balls almost as famous as a woman’s…Simon Cowell.

Not only is a new biography on him set to hit the marketplace and release new information on his private life, there are other things happening around the mogul that are coming to light.

He has been outed by Sharon Osbourne as a tiny-meated himbo after he accused her of leaving X Factor because of his affair with Dannii Minogue (who’s still denying it ever happened to which I say… “whatever, lying ass liar!”). Sharon Osbourne may be a lot of things: overly botoxed, lipo’ed, nipped and tucked, but one thing she is not…is a liar!
Also in the news lately is how Cowell has given his latest ex-girlfriend an LA pad valued at over $8 million dollars. Now, even I know in the gold-digger’s handbook of hussery this should be viewed with intense skepticism. True gold-diggers usually have to marry it and pop a few babies out of their worn out poons before they are eligible for such assets, but Simon’s tricks are not even having to go that far. Do they possess magical poon action or is Simon Cowell paying off these girls to not speak on his tiny meat or philandering?

Um, yeah. There’s your answer!

I’ve got some advice for Simon Cowell, because I’m Sir Heaux here to save a heaux. So, I will lay it all out on the line and pray no one snorts it.

Dear Simon,

First of all, you need to stop getting hitched up with women that look like trannies. From Sinitta, Terri Seymour, and the recently tricked, then kicked to the curb Mezhgan Hussainy, stop cavorting with these ladies that look like ladyboys! All the girls I have seen you with look like the kind Eddie Murphy would try to give a ride home at three in the morning. This is not helping kill that rumor that you are gay and homosexual-like either.

Secondly, stop getting engaged to these alleged women! For what? Everyone knows you’re not going to marry them. Stop stringing them along. Just be a playboy for the rest of your life and have women on both sides of the Atlantic. Besides, it’s better for business.

Third? If you want X Factor to thrive in America, you need to listen to me carefully on this next one. If you don’t listen to the other two, you should definitely listen to this last one…

Do not hire Britney Spears to be a judge! Are you mad?!She can’t read the cue cards! What advice can she offer contestants? She can’t even lip-sync on time!

Heaux up…or blow up!
That is all.

Simon Cowell Robbed After One Night Stand!

Simon Cowell is a man who loves hookers. Who knew? For how prim and proper this guy seems to be and for all the money he rolls in, you would think he would be choosy in the women he hooks up with. Instead, he opts for one night stands like the rest of those celebrity heaux. And unfortunately, his fooling around with an unknown got him into a bit of trouble.

According to The Sun, Simon had been drinking at Drai’s nightclub in Hollywood last October when he met a woman and really wanted to have sexy time with her. So he went through the sneaky sneaking past hotel staff to get her into his room. Apparently when he woke up, the woman he did the nasty with was gone AND emptied out his wallet and stolen his computer, which had some important “X-Factor” documents on it. Damn!

Biographer Tom Bower has a book coming out called “Sweet Revenge: The Intimate Life of Simon Cowell” and there is more than just that story to dish on.

One of the most juicy stories was that Cowell had an affair with “The X Factor” judge Dannii Minogue, who split from the father of her son just this month after four years together!

Former X-Factor judge Sharon Osbourne confirmed the news saying that the affair “wasn’t a secret” and that Simon was exercising his one-eyed willy with both model Jasmine Lennard and make-up artist Julia Carta. AND to top it all off, he was carrying on his shenanigans with all these women while he was engaged to former-fiance Mezghan Hussainy.

As for the rumors that Sharon Osbourne left “Factor” because Simon and Dannii were getting it on, she made her point clear. “I’m not Simon’s mother – I don’t give a toss who he [bleeps]. I didn’t leave the show because Simon and Dannii were [bleeping], I left because she became unbearable.”

Well she became unbearable because she was probably sick of sharing Simon with everyone and their got damn mother! That bankroll was being fought for!

Britney Spears Will Probably Be An X-Factor Judge

Unless something really effing unexpected happens.

It seems that X-Factor may after all be bringing a bit of country cray cray to their show. Britney Spears is said to be very close to signing on as a judge for The X Factor show in the US.

It was back in March when we all thought that Brit was in final negotiations for the reality talent show and then she apparently wouldn’t sign due to the lack of money being dished out for her musical expertise. But hey, it isn’t really on the talent, my dears. It is all about the ratings. And Brit is definitely a good one to land for an all-eyes-on-us moment. Supposedly, $10 million wasn’t enough to get Brit to hee haw her way into a spot next to LA Reid.

Rumor has it now that Spears and Simon Cowell have figured out a contract that will see Brit earning $15 million (which is more than J-Lo makes for American Idol). I hope that fifteen mil also includes on call busted up weave repair services.

I’m pretty sure we will get an “official” word soon. Brit did get permission from her conservatorship judge to sign an X Factor contract back in March, so the ball should be rolling and the weave hair shall be placed. Be ready for some big time cray!

Britney Spears Offered $10 Million Dollar Deal For X-Factor

Well after all this talk, Britney Spears may be an X-Factor judge after all. That is, if she is willing to accept the $10 million offer to join the second season of Fox’s singing competition from Simon Cowell. Heck, it is about what her Mickey Mouse Club cohort and former rival Christina Aguilera is getting for her judging gig on The Voice.

After “letting go” Paula Abdul and Nicole Scherzinger, peeps have been trying to figure out or throw in their two cents in who they think will take their places. And now Britney’s name has come to the mix after Janet Jackson said no and Mariah Carey won’t do it.

Recently Cowell publicly praised Britney saying that, “Are we flattered there would be interest from Britney Spears? Yes. I’m fascinated by Britney. The fact that she’s one of the most talked about — not just pop stars but people — in the world today, means that you’ve got this star power. This girl has resilience. I would think that if she’s managed to sustain a family, a career, which is tough, (X Factor would be) a walk in the park. I would be fascinated to hear what she has to say. She’s still hot, she’s still having hit records and she’s still controversial. There’s a reason for that.”

So will she or won’t she? And will she be able to formulate coherent sentences when asked her opinion?

Adam Levine Snubs Simon Cowell’s Talent Show Face-off

Adam Levine is having great success with The Voice and Simon Cowell is seeing that. But the music mogul is dead set on making a competition among the top talent shows in one huge television spectacular.

In case you haven’t heard, Cowell is determined to pitch the next winner of The X Factor against the champions of his ex show American Idol and the new wildly successful The Voice.

Cowell recently offered up a challenge via Twitter saying, “Maybe the winner of The X Factor USA this yr (year) should compete with (the) winner of The Voice & (American) Idol in a super final. Just a thought. I’d be up for it.”

But Levine thinks it isn’t such a good idea. Adam responded by telling Access Hollywood, However, “Simon’s just so clever. He’s so hell bent on competing with other shows. We’re not really interested in a way… That’s kind of a cool idea, actually, but I’m not so sure we’re totally interested in what everyone else is doing. We’re just kind of worrying about what we do because we all know the more we worry about everybody else, the more the quality of what you’re doing tends to suffer. So, we want to just do what we do.”

I don’t think it isn’t a good idea either. I’m thinking that Simon Cowell is just a tad pissed that he didn’t think of The Voice concept first.

Simon Cowell talks Paula Abdul’s firing, replacement rumors

Believe it or not, Simon Cowell is blaming himself (more specifically his big mouth) for the big shakeup at The X-Factor. Since the firing of Paula Abdul and the disappointment that has plagued Paula’s fans, Simon has felt…well, responsible because he was the one who set unreasonable expectations for the show.

Cowell told Extra, “I would’ve liked to have kept [Paula]. She was very gracious, and I said that to her. She understands it’s business; it’s never personal.”

And as far as letting go Scherzinger? He really doesn’t think she’s punching her fist through walls. “I don’t think she’s mad. I think she’s disappointed.” Well, yeah. Unfortunately it was her big mouth and her actions that got her canned.

So why in the hell did he have to shake up the roster? Cowell explains, “It’s only because I opened my big mouth and said we were going to get 20 million [viewers]. If I hadn’t said that, everybody would be saying the show was a huge success.”

And why did he decide to ONLY keep L.A. Reid? As far as Cowell is concerned, “There’s not a record executive out there who is as good as him for the job.” True. I adore Reid.

Here is what he said about potential new judges:

As for the Beyonce rumors, they are “complete nonsense.”

He would love to have Madonna but she would be “expensive” (can you imagine the salary she’d be asking for? Cripes, she is charging her fans $300 to see her live in concert)!

So what about Katy Perry? Cowell thinks she would “fun” and “feisty.”

Even though Nick Cannon pretty much shot down rumors that his wife Mariah Carey would take on the X-Factor judge role, Simon says the door is still open. He said, “I would love her. but you can’t expect someone who’s just had two kids to make the kind of commitment you would need on this show.” But oh how we would LOVE her, despite her being too legendary for the show. Wink, wink.

The Next (Hopeful) Judges for X-Factor

Now, with Paula Abdul, Nicole Scherzinger, and Steve Jones gone, we can all begin to speculate and dream about who our ideal judges would be for the X-Factor.

The problem with having judges replace this cast is that the people who…actually liked the show…may have trouble with getting used to a new format. Do we really want Paula Abdul/Nicole Scherzinger act-alikes who end up being wishy-washy about their voting power only because they don’t want to hurt feelings? And do we really want judges who keep complaining about how “tough” judging is?

No.

That’s why we like Simon Cowell.  For him, judging is like taking off a band-aid you’ve had on for too long…the process can be very quick, to the point, and extremely painful. But once it’s done, it’s done.

So, how can we add to the dynamic of the judges table without making an awful cry-fest?

Well, let’s hope that we can figure this out with our dream cast of X-Factor Judges…

Dream Judge # 1 – Lady Gaga

Okay, usually these judging gigs go to B-list celebrities that are hoping to revive a dying career, which is definitely not the case for Lady Gaga, but…one can only hope, right? With her combination of talent and her (seemingly) understanding (albeit, weird) nature…she would be a nice balance of actually knowing what she is talking about without the cruelty of Simon.

Dream Judge # 2 – Madonna

I mean, come on, really…I sing poorly and I would have no problems trying out for X Factor just to see Madonna in person. She has talent, she is an icon, and she tells it like it is. And, if they could some how bring Madonna and Lady Gaga, we are bound to see a bit of fun animosity (which, really…we all love that) between those two judges.

Dream Judge # 3 – Gene Simmons

 Aside from the fact that as the lead singer of Kiss he has made a name for himself with that extra long tongue of his, Gene Simmons is no stranger to the world of singing contests. He appeared on American Idol as a guest judge and was considered for some time to be a great replacement for Simon Cowell.

Dream Judge # 4 – Katy Perry

 Now, Katy, we all know that you are recovering from your post-marriage breakup, and so we all know that with any breakup the busier you get the less time you have to think about your former beau (it never works, but we all try). Plus, not only did she give great critiques on the people she judged while being a guest on American Idol, she has the love of the fans as well. She would definitely get my attention onto the X-Factor (plus, she doesn’t have the “once-was” factor that the newer judges for American Idol have…)

Dream Judge # 5 – Paul McCartney

 I thought I would throw another icon on the list. How can we ever get a great contestant if we don’t have “the greats” up there to judge them? If X-Factor really wants to beat out American Idol, the judges table will have to be strengthened. And adding a former Beatle, and rock icon would definitely do the trick.

Paula Abdul, Nicole Scherzinger, Steve Jones unemployed by X-Factor

It seems as if things have gotten a tad nasty over at X-Factor due to what I am guessing are as a result of the horrible ratings. Paula Abdul, Nicole Scherzinger AND Steve Jones are no longer employees over at the FOX show.

We heard last night that host Jones and judge Scherzinger would not be returning to their positions and that was confirmed. As for the Abdul news, there has not been confirmation, however it will be damn interesting to see if it is true and what will happen as a result of Abdul’s ousting, considering Paula’s popularity.

Apparently Cowell didn’t miss Abdul THAT much. It was after much contemplation that Simon decided to bring Paula back beside for X-Factor’s premiere season. He was quoted as saying, “I missed her the second she left (Idol). Always loved working with her even though she can be a pain. I don’t know what it is about her, but I’ve always clicked with her. You just have to get that chemistry, and she’s right. I’ve never found anyone better than her.”

Welp, his thoughts have certainly changed is the ousting is the case. Here’s hoping that next season Simon can snag up some decent judges and they can get better ratings than the measly 12.4 million they drew in.

Simon Cowell’s ex girlfriend Sinitta says he is “excessively horny”

Somehow I knew that Simon Cowell had a naughty streak in him. He wears tight t-shirts with his chest hair sprouting out. Of course he’s a little on the frisky side, but his ex-lover Sinitta is saying that Mr. Cowell is incapable of being faithful.

And get this, she also says that he is “excessively horny”. So what the eff does that mean?

Britney Spears talks turning 30 in Glamour UK’s October issue.

Over the past couple of years, Britney Spears has lived a pretty quiet lifestyle in terms of being involved with the press, particularly interviews. So when this Glamour UK October 2011 issue showed up online, I had to double check the dates. Britney DID in fact take part in a photo shoot, but more surprisingly she gave an interview.

We’ve got highlights from the interview and stunning photos from the shoot below.
