Simon Cowell has said that call girl Chloe Mafia will not be banned from The X Factor, as long as she doesn’t continue her activities whilst on the show.

The Sun revealed that the former Snog Marry Avoid contestant, was charging £160 an hour for sex and was going by the name of Candy. None of this seems to have bothered Cowell, who told the newspaper:

“We haven’t banned prostitutes.

“I think you’d want to show the story if we’re allowed – I want to see the story.

“We can’t just take people off the show because they might do something that upsets some people.

“If a person applies to be on The X Factor it’s obvious to me that they want to do something better with their life.”

An X Factor spokeswoman added:

“We don’t discriminate. We will look into the matter.”
