We might not get Paula Abdul but we’ll definitely get a whole lot of Simon Cowell.
Robert Sillerman, CEO of 19 Entertainment parent company CKX, let it slip yesterday that Fox is expecting Simon back for not one, not two but three more seasons of the hit reality competition.
“We’ve heard from Fox, who has asked us for approval for Simon Cowell to appear for three more years on ‘Idol,’” Sillerman said, later adding that nothing should stand in the way of Cowell’s return. Word is that Simon will pull in $45 million for the new deal. Not too shabby.
There was no word on any other new guest judges scheduled to replace Abdul.

I wish Simon and all those that think hes of Scottish origin, would do a bit of proper research on the subject, his name is of ancient irish decent like most other early primative Scots names, in English it is defined as cu + hyll or a Cow-Slope or a Corner, but this is typical bunkum used by those who have no time to delve into the deep origins. The real Origin is Celtic) its an abbreviation of MacCathmhaoil, Son of Cathmaol = Battle-Slave [Irish cath, a battle + maol, a slave].MacCathmhaoil (MacCawell), descendants of Fergal [Fearghal], son of Muireadhach [Murdach], son of Eoghan. The MacCawells are famous in Irish history for their learning,many of them were dignitaries to the church, while theres not so many around now,many of the ancient sept concealed their ancient links by anglicising their name Caulfied! The Manx surnames Cowle and Cowell are also, derived from the Irish Mac Cathmhaoil. The Clan Ferady with its leading sept the MeCawells settled around Clogher.”
