WALSH FRANTICALLY TAKES BACK INTERVIEW
LATEST: Irish music mogul LOUIS WALSH is backtracking on comments he made about TV colleague SIMON COWELL before he was rehired as a judge on the British talent show The X Factor.
The 54 year-old reportedly made scathing remarks about fellow judge Cowell, who he believed was to blame for his firing, in an interview for the BBC programme You Can’t Fire Me I’m Famous - which sees the firing of celebrities broken down and carefully analysed.
Walsh, who was fired from the X-Factor in March (07), was reinstated to the judging panel with Cowell and Sharon Osbourne last month (Jun07).
Producers hope to air the interview with updated comments from those involved, but Walsh’s people have made desperate attempts to block it.
A spokesperson for Walsh says, "Louis gave us a very emotional interview after he was sacked. We’ve had to make frantic calls to arrange emergency filming with the show’s host Piers Morgan."
