Report: Simon Cowell being offered Oprah-size deal to stay with ‘Idol’

http://www.realitytvworld.com/news/report-simon-cowell-being-offered-oprah-size-deal-stay-with-idol-9167.php

Simon Cowell is reportedly on the verge of extending his American Idol contract — and receiving an Oprah-sized payday in the process.

The Idol judge has been in talks with Fox and Idol’s 19 Entertainment production company to renew his contract in a deal that is “likely to surpass even Oprah Winfrey’s estimated earnings,” The Financial Times reported Tuesday, citing a person familiar with the negotiations.

The November 2005 five-season agreement Cowell signed with Fox expires after Idol’s ninth season next spring, and he has been upfront about his willingness to leave the show due to his other obligations to his The X Factor and Britain’s Got Talent U.K. reality competitions.

In addition to negotiating his new deal, Cowell is also teaming with British retail billionaire Sir Philip Green to form a new global entertainment company geared towards creating television content in the U.S. and U.K., according to the U.K. financial newspaper, which added Green has been traveling to Los Angeles to advise Cowell on his Idol contract negotiations.

The joint venture between Green and Cowell will reportedly serve as a holding company for all of Cowell’s entertainment interests, according to The Times, including The X Factor, Britain’s Got Talent, America’s Got Talent and new programming devised or produced by Cowell.

The fact MJ passed doesn’t change one of The Rules: Never do MJ, Elvis, Aretha, Elton John, Freddy Mercury or The Beatles.

>>I forgot how angry Lil sounded when she sang.<<

That is because her mouth was saying the lyrics while her mind was saying “I am the WINNER! THE WINNER!”

Like an episode of Bridezillas ;)

LOL!! I’ve only watched that show once. The one where the girl wanted a “Clue” themed wedding and threw a fit because her fiance thought it was dumb.

The women on that show should be happy ANYONE wants to marry them.

I didn’t realize when this was live how much time the judges wasted with their comments. Kara especially.

Hi, Di :) How is your ankle?

I could care less about this little shit....he abused young boys and now he’s being treated like the greatest performer on the planet!!!!

That's the way I feel too. But, FOX is replaying the whole two hour show so I thought it would be worth some laughs.
