Louis and host Kate have been sacked from the next X Factor and simon speaks about when he considered leaving the show and how Leona was the reason he is staying. Simon: “I was not sure I wanted to carry on as a judge on X Factor. It’s a lot to juggle — making the shows, being on the shows, running a record company and a TV company — so I had to think twice about it.
“I think Leona probably changed my mind. She reminded me why we do these shows, to find talent.”
