Caroline Flack has revealed that she didn’t get off to the best of starts with Simon Cowell.
The X Factor host revealed on Lorraine this morning that she was anxious about finally meeting the music mogul on her first day.
Caroline had never met Simon Cowell before.
She revealed: “I’d never worked with Simon and I found myself getting really nervous on my first day.
“The first question I asked him was if he thought all the talent in the UK had been exhausted and he just looked at me and said ‘that’s a stupid question.’”
The 35-year-old with co-host Olly Murs.
She added: “Then he turned his back on me and just walked away… I thought, I’m going to be sacked.”
Caroline and Olly Murs took over from Dermot O’Leary as hosts on this year’s series of the singing competition.
