Madonna’s brother taking over from Cowell on American Idol?
Madonna’s brother is trying to encourage people to get behind his fight to take over from Simon Cowell on American Idol.
Christopher Ciccone – who wrote a tell-all book about his famous sister which was released in 2008 – has high hopes that he could be the man for the job, when Cowell steps down to focus his attention on the US X Factor.
And he believes he’s more than qualified for the job, having grown up with the Queen of Pop herself.
Speaking to the New York Post, Ciccone said: “I think I can bring a particular kind of credibility to the show.” He added: "I'd be the only person sitting at the table who actually created a popstar from the beginning, and helped keep her there for 20 years. I know what it takes to make it."
Madge’s brother also claims the star would be “supportive” of his dream.
