Thank God Simon Cowell wasn't around in the 60's

Simon Cowell says Ringo Starr would have scuppered The Beatles' chances of winning 'The X Factor'. The pop impresario says he would have had no qualms about turning The Fab Four down, because drummer Starr wasn't talented or good looking enough. Asked if he'd have taken The Beatles on if they auditioned for the show, Cowell quipped: "No, we would have said, ‘We'll take those three [John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison] but probably lose the drummer.’ Ringo, I'm afraid, we would have said is ‘bad news’."
