Simon Cowell to quit `Britain`s Got Talent`

London: Music mogul Simon Cowell will not attend the auditions for new season of "Britain`s Got Talent" and says he will eventually leave the show.

"I won`t be doing the BGT auditions next year. I will join the show at the semi-final stage," a website quoted Cowell as saying. "I will eventually leave but nothing is decided yet. We launch US `X Factor` next year too which is a huge challenge," he said. Cowell said that he likes "Britain`s Got Talent" "but it takes a hell of a lot of time. You sit watching horrific acts and think `I genuinely can`t do this any more`." IANS
