Oh No!! How can Simon Cowell allow this to happen?

Just a few short weeks ago we reported on rumours that world renowned weirdo Michael Jackson would be making an appearance on this years X Factor series.

I hoped it was a tabloid rumour, but Simon Cowell today confirmed that it was true.

“I got a call from his people saying he really likes the show and would love to be a part of it,” Simon told The Mirror. “There are also some other amazing guests. Kylie’s doing the live final and Leona’s coming on too.”

I just pity the finalists left at that stage. How on earth do you make conversation with a man that has a hanky tied round his face?
