American Idol 2010: Simon Cowell is looking for a Taylor Swift

March 16th, 2010 by Lisa McGarry. Tags: ,

American Idol judge Simon Cowell has revealed that he is hoping one of the more current and relevant singers wins this year’s season of the TV talent show.

Speaking to RockStar Weekly, the 50 year old music mogul admitted that he is looking for his very own Taylor Swift. He said:

“I want somebody who represents what is going on at the moment. I’d love to find a Taylor Swift, somebody who’s relevant rather than just a contest winner. ”

On whether a female will triumph this year he added:

“There is a better chance of a girl winning the show this year, certainly than last year.”

We’re hoping that Crystal Bowersox at least makes it to the final. If you have a favourite, make sure to leave a comment below.

    Crystal Bowersox is absolutely hands down without a doubt the front runner. She should win!

    I’m looking forward to Taylor Swift’s new CD. Seems like ages since her previous one.
