One Direction and Little Mix are of course two of the most successful groups to have ever been spawned by The X Factor, and that is of course all the more remarkable since the singers in both bands originally tried out for the show as solo artists…
But irrespective of how both bands began, music mogul Simon Cowell is making more cash out of them than you can throw a stick at, assuming you’d want to throw a stick at a pile of wonga.

The Voice coach Jessie J has dropped a fairly large hint that she may not return to the show next year because of her “schedule.”

Amanda Holden thinks her two daughters could go on to become winners of Britain’s Got Talent one day.
The – probably biased – mum of two has been a judge on the ITV show for seven years, so she knows what she’s looking for in a winner and despite the fact that one of her children is still a baby, she definitely thinks they have what it takes to walk away with the title and Royal Variety spot.
