Music mogul Simon Cowell plans to formally invite current US presidential candidates, Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, on his show "America's Got Talent."

The 56-year-old creator of "The X Factor" wants them to show their talent on his reality competition and revealed that the invitation process is in work, reported People magazine.

"I think we can take it a stage further in addition to the debates, why don't we invite them on? They can sing, dance, whatever they want.

"I only just thought of it now, it sort of just came into my head. So we're going to put the invite out and it sort of changes the election process a little bit. It would be good, right?," Cowell said.
 

Cowell said he got the idea of calling them after he heard Democratic Vice Presidential nominee Tim Kaine playing several tunes on the harmonica recently, including Bob Dylan's "Wagon Wheel".

He is currently on the judging panel of "America's Got Talent" alongside Mel B, Heidi Klum and Howie Mandel, which is hosted by Nick Cannon.
