Amy Childs wants to be the next Simon Cowell.

The reality TV star - who shot to fame in ITV2 series The Only Way Is Essex - is keen to follow in the footsteps of the media mogul and be a judge on Britain's Got Talent or The X Factor.

The beautician said: "I could be the next Simon. Who wouldn't want to be an X Factor judge? I'd rather do Britain's Got Talent though because I like singing.

"They asked me to be the understudy for Carmen Electra on the main show of X Factor. If she didn't turn up I would have been on there, which is amazing. I'd be so honest. That's just me, do you know what I mean?"

Amy - who quit TOWIE after the second series to branch out on her own - also revealed how she wouldn't rule out a reunion with former boyfriend and co-star Kirk Norcross.

Speaking about her ex-lovers, the 22-year-old beauty told the Daily star on Sunday: "I'm a nice person and I want to keep in contact with all of them."

"Me and Kirk have always had chemistry. I'm not going to lie to you, I did fancy him but he's a mate."
