A small break from politics with reports that Simon Cowell is offering Beyonce an annual salary of $100 million to become a full-time judge on X-Factor.
According to USMagazine this would be the highest Television salary ever.
Back in October a video was uploaded to YouTube where Cowell described Beyonce as "ambitious, talented, competitive." Cowell added "She defines this new breed of (unintelligible) of super popstar, and they're all girls at the moment. It's like a new super species who literally want to rule the world. When she came out with that song, there is no irony, she wants to rule the world. (laughter)"
In that same interview LA Reid described her as "The most talented performer alive."

News came out on January 31, 2012 that Cowell had ousted both Paula Abdul and Nicole Scherzinger from the second season of X-Factor although from the same report Cowell indicated that he expected to collaborate with Ms. Abdul on a new project.
