Simon Cowell is set to leave American Idol? Such rumors are in the air, for quite some time now.
When “American Idol” executive producer Ken Warwick held a conference call with the press earlier in the week, he spent much of it reiterating that he wanted Paula Abdul to stay on the show, but he never said a word about Simon Cowell.
Regarding this Cowell said on December 17 that “I’ll make a decision about (whether to stay with the show) next year,” Cowell said Dec. 17 in his own call with reporters.
Cowell also backed up Warwick’s earlier statement that the show wasn’t aware of how troubled Paula Goodspeed really was.
Abdul has said show producers knew the woman was stalking her and let her audition anyway, but Cowell says that the producers have been portrayed unfairly.
