Simon Cowell - Hot For Sexy Dannii

Sexy Dannii is driving fellow judge, Simon Cowell, wild with desire on X Factor. It appears that glamorous Dannii has already made a huge impact on the show. Bitter, old Sharon is clearly threatened by Dannii's otherworldly beauty and stunning intellect, while Simon has fallen under Dannii's mesmerising spell. In an interview with UK's Daily Mail Simon states the obvious by declaring that he finds Dannii sexier than Kylie. I'm sure his dressing room is covered in old copies of Dannii's erotic calenders!

Kylie? I'd go for Dannii any day, says Simon Cowell

X Factor star Simon Cowell has revealed he finds his new co-judge Dannii Minogue "incredibly sexy" and would choose her over more famous sister Kylie "any day".

TV's Mr Nasty is a big fan of the 35-year-old Australian singer - and the feelings are mutual. "There's something about her (Dannii) that's very mysterious - I think she keeps some aspects of her character private," Cowell told The Sun. "She's an incredibly sexy girl, but she doesn't realise how sexy she is. I tell you something, given the choice between Kylie and Dannii, I would go for Dannii any day," Cowell told The Sun.

Returning the compliment, Minogue, who is single, told YOU magazine: "Simon's very fanciable! It's his confidence. I like that in someone."

Dannii is best known in the UK as Kylie's younger sister, however Cowell believes her appearance on X Factor will see her emerge as a star in her own right. "I think she has been a little bit in Kylie's shadow, but she is, in her own right, very intelligent and very savvy. She told me she watched the X Factor with Kylie. When we did the first day of recording she was in a bit of a shock as she kept telling me, 'I feel a bit strange to be here, in between you and Sharon (Osbourne)."

However it's not Cowell's long-term girlfriend Terri Seymour who is slightly jealous of Dannii's impact on him but fellow judge Sharon Osbourne. Cowell explained: "When I sit next to one, the other sulks. I have to try to give each one equal attention. You know girls can be very catty and it's been very interesting watching how another woman has affected the dynamic of the group."
