Making good television is what Simon Cowell does. That's his business.

I don't have anything against Simon Cowell and 'The X Factor.'

I can't touch Simon anymore.

Simon is cool. You know, it's different if you ever see him around his mom. He acts totally different.

I'm proud to be involved with Simon Cowell and 'X Factor.'

I like Simon Cowell - look at how many great artists have come out of the U.K. because of him.

The rest of my family are obsessed by 'The X Factor:' I'm intrigued by it, although its musical values are far away from mine, like a cup of tea with 400 lumps of sugar in it. There's something very strange about Simon Cowell's lips, isn't there?

I don't have many famous friends, really, except Simon Cowell.

There is love there. And then there's times when I can't even stomach Simon. You don't have to sit next to him. That's all I have to say.

I'm always being asked if I watch 'The X Factor,' and I do from time to time. I know it makes for great TV and that Simon Cowell has a real gift.
