Simon Cowell supposedly called the singing superstar on her Video Phone and offered her $100 million a year, for a five year contract with X-Factor USA., Mediatakeout.com reported.
The news comes from an “extremely reliable source” the very same source who reported Jennifer Lopezwas joining American Idol in 2010, the website claimed.
Cowell wants a big name female star on the panel, the source told Mediatakeout.com. Mariah Carey is all right, but she's not that spicy today. He wants Beyonce because that would immediately give him the leap needed to beat American Idol.
The report was released just days after Cowell announced the removal of former judges Paula Abdul and Nicole Scherzinger, who are reportedly "laced with hurt and disbelief" at being dumped.
Anxious to revive the franchise, Cowell believes Beyonce is the magic button.
Beyonce Knowles would be the highest paid female entertainer in the world, if this is true, and push her and husband, Jay-Z’s combined revenue to well over $1 billion.
Knowles and Cowell didn’t made any comment regarding this rumors but MediaTakeOut.com said to wait for a “major” career statement from the singer in the next month.
Knowles is not a stranger to the X-Factor franchise. In 2008 she played a role as a mentor and performed a duet with the winner.
