Simon Cowell’s new recruit

The music man recently hired the singer Cheryll Cole to judge on the “X-Factor” after being supposedly very moved by her performance on the show. However, she seems to have some problems being able to sing in the US so Cowell is trying to solve those problems. A source had the following to say: “Simon was dazzled by Cheryl’s performance on “The X Factor. He’s certain he can turn her into a global star, but he just needs to iron out her visa problem. He’s employed a firm of experts in Miami and is confident they will be able to reach some kind of arrangement.” Right, and I’m sure he’s doing this out of pure clemency for her situation, he can’t possibly have anything to profit from this, can he?
