Check out the promo video below of Simon Cowell’s latest creation – The X Factor USA. It features our own One Direction, Cheryl Cole and Steve Jones.

We would just like to ask – Where have all the American talent gone? It would appear that America has become a place for Brits desperate to enhance their fame and fortune to run to. We just hope the UK version of the X Factor is not going to suffer as a result of this talent drain both behind the scenes and in front of camera.

Don’t get us wrong, We wish Simon Cowell all the best with his new venture, but we think the UK might be left with a second rate show this year. Let’s hope we are proved wrong.
