Simon Cowell blame lawyers for Abdul delay


LOS ANGELES - Simon Cowell blames prosecutors for the deal is that Paula Abdul to serve as a judge on Cowell "X factor" closed at 11th hour Sunday - just as the towers of the judges of the hearings were about to begin.


He even said on a talk about the use of a judge invited, but he ultimately would have called off Sunday hearings if Abdul deal had not closed.


"I would have cancelled today (if deal had never crossed)," Cowell said The Hollywood Reporter on Sunday in the Centre of Gaten of the University of California of the South prior to the hearings of the judges began.


"The problem was that these conversations had lasted long enough." It's not as if I it bloomed on someone. I thought that it is time for everyone to do their work and obtain the agreement. I couldn't have sat in front of you and the said lot (Paula) wanted to make the agreement and us could not. ?


Cowell said it was important for Abdul - who served as a judge alongside Cowell on "american idol Fox" - to be part of "Factor X," which debuted on Fox in September.


"I could just sense that the public would have been disappointed without Paula," Cowell said. "" "". You see how we are; We get really well. ?


One issue, according to sources, was an option that CBS had Abdul based on an agreement to allow it to participate in his short-lived competition show "Live dance". This agreement, according to two sources close to "X factor", contained language that could have prevented Abdul to join the new show.


Cowell said: "it is Paula Abdul." Nothing is never easy, but I'm used to it. ?


Abdul serves as a judge alongside Cowell, Antonio "L.A." Reid and Cheryl Cole.
