Simon Cowell is considering quitting as a judge on The X Factor.
The music mogul and creator of the show said at the weekend he is considering giving up being a judge on shows like The X Factor, Britain's Got Talent and American Idol, because he finds it too much work.
Simon, 49, told Live magazine: "I'm definitely not retiring. But I am going to make a couple of changes.
"The contracts are all up at the end of next year and what I may well do is stop actually being on TV. Give up the panel. The thing that gets me is the schedule. Every day of my week is filled for the next year.
"[Fame] takes a lot and it's something I never wanted. I'm a music business person."
