I may be completely wrong as I am working 12 hour days at the moment but has anything been heard from Mr Cowell? It appears that Ms Minogue and Mrs Osbourne have been very quiet as well. With all the controversy over the outcome should Simon and the other judges not be saying something to the public? The only one I have seen any comments were from Louis. Surely it is in their long term interest to protect the brand?

^ I think he's in Barbados, so unlikely to comment!

The only comment came from Louis. If Simon wanted to comment, he could of sent a message to the media here.

Simon does not want to get involved with all the fall out from the series.

Apparently Simon went abroad soon after the show had finished.

Simon cares only about his business, everyone else are just pawns in his game.

Do any of the judges actually live in the UK? I'm sure Sharon & Simon live in California, Louis I'm assuming lives in Ireland & Dannii...?

Simon splits his year between LA and London depending on whether he's working on AI or XF- lucky sod will be in Barbados now

I sat next to her having lunch in the Summer, so I assumed she's mainly UK based.

In the Mail online today there were pics of him in Barbados and a long article about the real winner of X Factor - this seems to have been removed ? So Max Clifford is working on something ...

Both Simon and Sharon do have houses in LA but don't actually live there. Dannii has also said she's lived in England since she was about 16, but her parents live in Australia so she spends some of the year there, like when filming Australia's Got Talent.

I think this is a very valid question. It seems a bit strange to me that there's been no statement from xfactor / Simon. And being in Barbados is not relevant, they have telephones and internet there, you know! But what do I know, I'm just a member of the manipulated public.

Max Clifford makes me heave. Just had to say that.

Simon lives in LA at least part of the year. He just spent millions building a home there. I suspect when he's done with UK TV, he'll live there 90% of the time. Why not live in the warm weather as much as you can?

Don't know what Sharon's situation is.

Clifford used to make me heave until I learned a bit more about him. He's a very shy and private man (ironically), totally devoted to his family and wife, who sadly died a couple of years ago and he was absolutely broken hearted. I like him now.

Simon is embarrassed because it took him a while to realise that Leon has the X Factor and not his previous favourite..

He must have a thing for sticks.

Either that or women with the body of a teenage boy.

I learned so much about him from reading his book and my opinion totally changed too.

Must admit I like a bit more to get hold of, but teenage boy

Nobody in my old football team looked like that


Showers would have been more fun
