Simon Cowell reveals Cheryl's last-minute BGT exit

News summary

Simon Cowell has revealed that Cheryl was initially offered a judging role on Britain's Got Talent but withdrew just days before the show's 2007 launch, leaving the team scrambling for a replacement. Cowell emphasized that Amanda Holden, who has been a judge since the first series, was the perfect fit due to her enthusiasm and humor, calling her the 'Britain’s Got Talent queen.' He recounted the quick decision-making process, stating they had only a week to find a new judge after Cheryl's exit. The 18th series of the talent show returns with Cowell, Holden, Alesha Dixon, and Bruno Tonioli, and features KSI as a guest judge. Cowell praised Holden's longevity and success on the panel, noting their strong friendship over the years. Despite never joining BGT, Cheryl became a well-known judge on The X Factor, solidifying her role in the talent show scene.
