I find it very amusing that after all these years that the year I wasn’t on American Idol, it would win the Emmy, and I think that would make me laugh so it probably will. I think it would be more ironic. But I think I’m going to say if it does win this year it’s for all the years we did before, so whatever happens I’m going to claim the victory, I promise you, and replicate the Emmy and just put my name on it. _Simon Cowell: Judge on THE X FACTOR
