Oh well, after paying all that out, she should have just enough for her Bus Fare home !!
thats why he does the programme
did you think it was just to promote talent?
hahahahahahaha
I think he's pretty smart.
I think he's rich enough not to need it.
It might have been last year's X Factor, but Simon was sitting outside his villa! The size of it!
He should give the 20% to someone who needs it. Like charity of something.
thats her fault for having an agent as well as simon,
the fact is their are a billion singers out there so she needs him a lot more then he need her.
I think it stinks. I've heard the producers argue that without them none of those kids would be famous, so they should just appreciate everything that has been done for them.
I think he's one clever b*st*rd.
he gets 20% because of his name and because without American Idol the singers would just be wannabes.
whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?
ok even if i don't understand your question i do understand math and it seem like even though you are paying 40% in commission you are keeping 60% of something and that is better than a 100% of nothing
he is now in charge ..she signed contract, mainstream moosic sigh same old tune ! fame, popularity, pay up or be a nobody! same old story!
I can't begrudge having him being able to get it while he still can. After all, interest in "American Idol" is cooling off and I wouldn't be surprised it it gets canceled in the next year or two. After that, people won't really know or even care who he is.
That's disgusting...but it's what she signed to.
'
is anyone gonna actually go? 20% of 0 is ￡000
20% for what? Voting her off the show!!
That's outrageous but I guess that's showbiz! lol
Well at least he might be able to afford better trousers,and not those stupid high waisted things...lol
How do u think he can buy so many new cars? It was reported that he has just brought 2 cars for the total of 1 million
Yeah it's a pain in the ar se for Kimberley, but at the end of the day she's making more money than she would have before the X Factor!
At least she got her 5 minutes of fame!!!!!
And Simon just gets richer and richer.
So thats how he makes money from one hit wonders.
What do I think? I think it annoys me that Kimberly signed a contract and now presents the situation as if she's being taken advantage of.
this is diabolical. yes i suppose she would not have been booked if it were not for x factor but even still 20% is a bit steep.
Money for old rope if you ask me!!!! Well I have heard this before that by the time everything is paid out the performers don't actually get much. At the end of the day Kimberley will be doing what she wants to do - sing - and, who knows she might get something permanent out of it. That's showbusiness!!!!
you can see why he,s a millionaire
my opinion in this state you should becareful
and try to make the biggest percent to the agent like 20% and for Simon 10% is enough
and if you want this clear send to me more information
