X Factor star Danyl Johnson has been banned from appearing on anymore American TV shows by ITV bosses.

After becoming quite the internet sensation, Danyl has been invited to appear on Oprah and other major US TV shows. However Cowell and Co think that huge exposure on that scale would be unfair to the other contestants and said no to all offers.

An insider told The Sun: “There has been a huge appetite for Danyl over in the States.

“Everyone has been watching his performance on YouTube and the Oprah producers caught wind of him.

“They thought it would be great to book him on to the show so lined up a slot for him.

“But X Factor producers and ITV didn’t like the idea. They reckoned it would be unfair on the other acts as they are only supposed to be judged on what they do on the show.”

On the other hand, Susan Boyle had HUGE exposure in the States before the Britain’s Got Talent final and she didn’t win. The hype went against her in the end and maybe thats what the X Factor bosses are really scared of.
