Moss, Cowell & Green = Disney?

cowellmossgreenSupermodel Kate Moss is set to join forces with Simon Cowell and Sir Philip Green to form a “global entertainment super-company to rival Disney” – at least according to Daily Mail in England. The multi-million-pound deal would see Miss Moss directing the style and image of the £1billion as yet unnamed brand, as well as giving fashion advice.

The Daily Mail revealed how Cowell and Sir Philip, who owns stores including Topshop and Bhs, have decided to pool their finances, resources and industry knowledge to create a worldwide business which straddles showbusiness and fashion.

The plan would see them own all the rights and content of the TV programmes Cowell produces, including Britain’s Got Talent, The X Factor and America’s Got Talent.

The idea is to take the hit shows to more countries and sell millions of pounds worth of merchandise on the back of their success. Although the two men have been friends for more than a decade, they have only seriously discussed going into business together this year.

Successful? – probably. Rivals to Disney?….hmmm….
