Simon Cowell is apparently furious today that the new craze sweeping the world - the lethal Swine Flu, is out-googling both Susan Boyle and Shaheen Jafargholi combined.
Rumours suggest that Cowell who had intended the current series of Britain's Got Talent, to propel him to even greater levels of world domination, had worked all winter to construct the plot line for the most recent series of the reality TV show.
Following this latest worldwide phenomenon, and further suggestions that Swine Flu may be intending to release a Christmas single.
It is believed that Cowell may well turn to an emergency plot line on next week's show in which Amanda Holden is kidnapped by bitter Les Dennis.
