AMERICAN IDOL judge SIMON COWELL has doomed a wannabe singer's chance of winning the TV talent contest by revealing he'll quit the show if he wins.
The acid-tongued British svengali admits he was stunned when contestant SANJAYA MALAKAR (corr) beat rocker SUNDANCE HEAD for a place in the final 12 on Thursday night (08MAR07), and he'll leave the show if the Indian-American singer is crowned the next American Idol.
Brutal Cowell says, "He's not going to win. I won't be back if he does!"
