Simon Leaving American Idol?
(MSNBC) Every week, millions of viewers tune in to "American Idol" to hear what Simon Cowell has to say but according to the Mirror, the no-nonsense judge may be planning on leaving the show.

"Most people do one show a year and I do three and they involve a lot of traveling. One may have to go," Cowell, 49, told the paper on Saturday. "I don't know which one. That is the problem, I like all of them. I can't imagine not doing 'Britain's Got Talent' and I can't imagine not doing 'X Factor.'

"But I guess America is more likely to go because I have got one year under contract. Maybe that will be the end." - more on this story
