Pop Idol with Dr Fox, Nicky Chapman and Pete Waterman was great. The format was then transferred in the same format worldwide. What happened to make it stop and change to X Factor Was it money or personality based.?|||it was called pop idol cos pete waterman was the record contractor for the winner,then simon joined as the record producer and pete withdrew so after a long legal battle by pete for copy rights the name was changed to x-factor|||I personally think they tried something new with the X-Factor and they found it had a lot wider appeal to potential entrants and audiences, due to the fact it didn't say 'Pop' in the title. It opened the door for rockier, more RnB and 'cooler' contestants.
In America, American Idol is such a well loved brand that simon has said he would not want to risk messing with that and doesn't think it's necessary. Plus I don't think they have ever had that problem of only attracting will young's, michelle mcmanuss's and whoever else as it's called American Idol and doesn't put people off who don't consider themselves 'pop'.|||Well this is wot i gt from star stories so prob complete garbage but mayb right... sos
it was summit lyk he was in buisness wiv another guy (can't remeber name) and then i wanted al lthe money so he made a new show n then they had a big legal battle|||Well Simon wanted to have his own show and he wanted the winner to work for his record label, so in the long run the winner would essentially make money for him |||it was probably as you say money
