Talking of Pop Idol, Simon Cowell has told the Sun that he met with Victoria Beckham recently and advised her to drop the embarrassing pop ambitions.
Cowell: "I saw Victoria when she was out here [LA] a while ago. I told her I thought she should concentrate on what she is good at and quit the pop. I doubt whether her music career will ever get off the ground again, unless she finds an absolutely brilliant song. If you ask me, her best asset is her eye for style. Fashion is definitely what she should be concentrating her energies on. I told her my advice would be to launch her own clothing range."
That said, Cowell also sees Victoria's future career including TV, and he is hoping he can find a TV format where he can work with her himself: "I know we would work really well together and she comes across very well on television. That's when you get to see the real Victoria Beckham."
