Susan Boyle and Simon Cowell to feature on Oprah's World's Got Talent show
Oprah is set to host a global talent show called World's Got Talent, which will feature our very own Susan Boyle and string quartet group Escala.
Simon Cowell will also make an appearance on the show, along with 40 acts from a host of talent series around the world.
A source told The Sun: 'Oprah is a huge fan of the Got Talent idea so she wanted to do something special.
'She is friends with Simon so thought it would be great to have him on with some of the best acts from around the world.
'It’s a massive springboard for Escala and Susan.'
It's not the first time Simon has employed Oprah's help in promoting his acts. He famously made Leona Lewis an instant name in America by showcasing her talent on the chat show queen's sofa.
