Simon Cowell<\/a> to create a new television show.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Snoop Dogg wants to team up with Simon Cowell to create a new television show<\/p>\n
Revealing he has been discussing the idea for more than a decade, the 54-year-old rapper, who has built ties with UK figures including David Beckham, said the time could be right to collaborate with Simon, 66, known for creating programmes including The X Factor. <\/p>\n
Snoop, who is also a minority stakeholder in Swansea City AFC, has been spending more time in the UK and suggested a meeting with Simon could lead to a joint project.<\/p>\n
Speaking to the Sunday Mirror, Snoop said: \u201cFor real, I have been talking about working with my boy Simon for over 10 years.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere are times when it could have happened, when it nearly happened, but one of our schedules always got in the way.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nSnoop described Simon as \u201cone of the great talent scouts of all time\u201d and said there was still potential for a new programme. <\/p>\n
\nHe added: \u201cTV has moved on, the way people watch TV has moved on \u2013 but shows like The X Factor used to bring a nation together \u2013 and we need more of that.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nSnoop also said he was planning to meet Simon in the UK. <\/p>\n
\nHe added: \u201cMaybe this is the time to make the Snoop and Simon TV partnership happen. I got a few ideas that could be huge, but I got to speak to Simon first.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cI should be back in the UK in a couple of weeks \u2013 so I am going to take him out for a curry, and a business chat.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nSnoop has previously expressed interest in working on a version of The X Factor and said he had been offered a judging role on the US edition, which he declined in favour of a mentoring role.<\/p>\n
\nSimon saw his ITV programme The X Factor end in 2021 after 17 years on air, while Snoop has expanded his interests into football, acquiring a stake in Swansea City AFC.<\/p>\n
\nAddressing comparisons with Ryan Reynolds, who co-owns Wrexham AFC with Rob McElhenney, Snoop dismissed any competition between them. <\/p>\n
\nHe said: \u201cThere is no rivalry with Ryan at all! I can see why people want to hype that because there are similarities in what we are trying to achieve.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cRyan and Rob just doing his thing, and I am doing my thing. The plans and ambitions I got for Swansea are bigger than people can imagine.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cI don’t have the time to focus on what anybody else is doing.\u201d<\/p>\n
