Is Simon Cowell's influence on the wane??
Just noticed the DS headlines earlier & they were about Strictly, not X-factor. This would not have been the case a few years ago, where Strictly was sidelined in nearly all forms of media to the X-factor juggonaut.
I also notice that the charts are now less clogged up with Cowell's influenced acts (Ella Henderson, Olly Murs & 1D being notable exceptions). It seems that most acts appealing to teensies & young people have no Cowell's connections these days.
Added to this his presence is noticeably less in the media overall. Obviously a lot can be put down to the loss of Max Clifford but for me, this was starting even before he was jailed.
Is it just natural fatigue amongst the public?
