Media mogul Simon Cowell, who is currently on the judging panel of singing talent hunt 'The X Factor', says he cannot stand celebrity reality shows and will never be a part of them as a contestant.
Cowell, 54, said he finds shows like 'Big Brother' and 'I'm A Celebrity' bad. Reported Daily Star.
"Strictly? 'Big Brother'? 'I'm A Celebrity'? I couldn't think of anything worse. I couldn't pick one. Which one is worse? And if I ever do, shoot me! Just make it quick, painless and I'll go," he said.
