Simon Cowell

The performance earned Farmer a Golden Buzzer to continue on in the competition, hugs from Mel B. and Tyra Banks, as well as the accolade of an unforgettable performance via Simon Cowell.

Between Tamyra Gray's shocking elimination and Kelly Clarkson's come-from-behind win, the show's first string of episodes played out like a reality TV fairy tale.

Word on the street is that Carmen Electra (yeah, she's still around) and snipey 'X Factor' judge Simon Cowell just might be a thing. Paparazzi caught them out on a dinner date Saturday night, and now we can't stop wondering how Cowell rated her try-out.

Simon Cowell can add “hero” to his long, long list of achievements: The former ‘American Idol‘ and current ‘X Factor‘ judge came to the rescue of nine people who were trapped on a sinking boat in France!

The 'X Factor' released another promo that teases the mean side of both Britney Spears and Simon. They also have released an interview from behind the scenes at the Greensboro auditions.

Sources close to Britney Spears apparently told US Weekly that Brit is very interested in becoming a judge on the upcoming season of 'X Factor'. So far the only judges cemented in for the show are Simon Cowell and L.A. Reid, but there has been a plethora of names thrown around for the two empty seats.

According to some shady gossip blogs, Simon Cowell might be trying to make a power play to boost next years 'X-Factor'. He reportedly offered Beyonce $500 Million dollars to be a judge on the show for the next five years.

The X Factor showed a sneak preview during last nights MLB All-Star game, and for the first minute or so it left audiences shocked! Simon promised to be nice, not to hog the spotlight and even to care about the environment; then he woke up.  See what real life X Factor will be like.

Ladies and gentlemen  prepare to be dazzled by the highly skilled and talented .....OH SH#T!!!!

X Factor Auditions are coming up soon, This show is gonna be HUGE. Read what Simon Cowell has to say about the show!

I am the self-proclaimed biggest American Idol fan in the country. I watch the show every week, I vote for my favorites not just once, but up to 100 times if I really like contestant. I Google the contestants, host and judges just to find out as much information as I can about them. All that being said, I am concerned about what my show will be like without Simon Cowell.
