Feb 07, 2011 09:48

The X Factor is Simon Cowell’s brand new singing competition and we’re on a mission to find America’s next undiscovered superstar.

When The X Factor debuts on FOX this fall, we’re going to give someone like you the chance to win a $5 million recording contract with Sony Music.

What’s great about The X Factor is that it is open to anyone - ( Read more... )

BUT WHO ELSE IS JUDGINGGGGGGGGG

also, just found this:

On January 7, 2011, FOX, Syco Television, and FremantleMedia North American announced that Pepsi will be the official sponsor of The X Factor.[1][12] The sponsorship includes an extensive multi-platform on and off-air marketing partnership.[1]

I really hope that one of them is Paula!!! LOL

Only if they agree to pay her a decent amount, which I think Simon would ensure for her.

lol, i guess pepsi doesn't want to be left behind since Coke sponsors Idol! it's so cute they think they're as big as coke... at least in the US they're definitely not...

I'm also hoping for Paula!!! I was rewatching Idol S8 (aka the best season) the other day and I miss her!!!!!!!!!!!

Well if he's following the UK format, then it'll be him, some other guy, and two women. Hopefully one of them is Cheryl Cole.

$5 million is so much! omg! and that's their own money- $1 million per year. Then, on top of that, they pay for recording expenses and all that jazz too.

THIS IS GOING TO BE FUN. Now the fall won't just be filled with me being sad that I have no reality show to watch.

ivybgreenflower February 8 2011, 06:41:22 UTC

AND I'LL GET TO KEEP MAKING WATCH POSTS AND CONTINUTE TO HAVE A PURPOSE IN LIFE.

Everyone's gonna try this. Why didnt he brought this show sooner? 5 mil dollar for Christ's Sake, way more than Idol.

There were probably contractual problems, like how even though America's Got Talent is his show, he can't appear on it because it isn't on Fox, and he's always had to deal with having both Idol and UK X Factor. This has probably been several years in coming.

I'm liking the no age limit format. I always thought it silly to think only certain aged people can have talent.
