Cowell: 'It's not you Kelly, it's the format!'

Simon Cowell has reportedly apologised to dumped Britain's Got Talent judge Kelly Brook for her sudden exit and offered her a job on ITV2's Britain's Got More Talent.

The Daily Mirror reports Simon saying: "I have spoken to Kelly on the phone and apologised. She was very pragmatic and very professional about it, although obviously a bit sad about no longer being a judge.

"I am sure she had shed a couple of tears, but she’s a tough little cookie."

On Monday, Kelly, 29, was sacked after six days as a judge on Britain's Got Talent.

Cowell continued: "I’ve offered Kelly a part on my ITV2 show. I actually liked her – she was good, she was fine. The problem was not her. Britain’s Got Talent just doesn’t work with four people.

"She is a warm person, who looks great and is very enthusiastic and that is why I spoke to her about the ITV2 show. I hope she’ll accept."

There is no word yet whether the actress and model has accepted the role as a roving reporter on the ITV2 spin-off show.
