Simon Cowell Owes The Lady Millions...Pay Up!

Esther Rantzen

If you gave someone an idea for an enormously successful show would you not expect to receive appropriate  financial credit for it? Acknowledging the obvious with gratitude and eating humble pie serve as valuable qualities in any given profession. The charming journalist and television presenter, Ms. Esther Rantzen claims that "The X Factor" was her idea, Simon Cowell  owes the success of his franchise to her. "Sadly, unlike Simon and his millions of pounds, I didn't make a single penny" she expounds. Whaaaaat, say it ain't so! 


Now from what we have seen of the incredibly caustic, arrogant and sarcastic Mr. Cowell, I doubt we would be witnessing such favorable and gracious restraint if the shoe was on the other foot. THE DAILY MAIL has the rest of this unfortunate piece of work. Is conscience truly in the head of the beholder?
