LOS ANGELES, CA—American Idol creator and music executive Simon Cowell sat in his judge’s seat for the final time last week, ending nine seasons of recording breaking TV ratings. The British music mogul and entrepreneur has found enormous success in his brutally honest repertoire.
Clearly a man whom knows how to market himself and his concepts, Mr. Cowell has set a new standard for reality television and hopes his newest venture, The X Factor will outdo American Idol and has amassed a net worth of over $170 million. Cowell’s brilliance comes from bringing to the public what is not seen in music videos: the arduous task of shaping young talent with no direction and prima-donna instincts. His shows reveal what managers and producers have long been yelling from the recording studio. We wish Mr. Cowell much success in his venture and its short history already has a proven track record for such success; as for American Idol, we believe the best course of action is to re-brand and re-vamp the entire show because you wouldn’t continue to call a show Seinfeld if Jerry Seinfeld had left before the franchise ended.
