Simon Cowell to appear on Strictly Come Dancing?

X Factor star discusses charity job swap with Bruno Tonioli

Simon Cowell

Simon Cowell could be popping up as a judge on Strictly Come Dancing.

The X Factor star, 48, discussed the idea when filming on the same Hollywood set as Bruno Tonioli, 52.

‘Simon has a lot of ideas for new TV shows and we were discussing swapping jobs,’ Bruno says.

‘I’ll do X Factor and he’ll do Strictly. It would be for charity, perhaps Children In Need. It would be funny.’

Since working in the US on rival shows American Idol and Dancing With The Stars, the pair have become pals.

‘We like a bit of a giggle,’ Bruno tells The Sun. ‘There's no competition between us.’
