Simon Cowell Declares War On “The Voice”

In part two of “Extra’s” exclusive interview with Simon Cowell, the X Factor creator told our Terri Seymour his plan of attack for competing this fall in what may be the same time slot as NBC’s “The Voice.

“If I’m right, ‘The Voice’ is now going to compete with us in the fall. You have to rethink things even more than we were a couple of weeks ago… ‘cause now it’s war.”Simon added, “I really am up for that. I think it’s crazy, but if that’s what they want to do, then we have to be better.”

The wildly successful TV mogul, who has to fill two judges’ seats and find a host for next season’s “X Factor,” observed, “You know what’s interesting? When everyone talks about artists competing, it’s like suddenly this massive punch-up between all these competition shows. So it’s really, really, really competitive… in a way that’s more exciting than anything else at the moment, and I kind of feel like the underdog, so I like it.”

This’ll be interesting. He will definitely ask Britney to be a judge to get the whole Xtina vs. Brit rivalry going again and get everyone talking about his show.
