Cowell spots Kate factor
Supermodel Kate Moss is to appear in the Little Britain stage show, according to David Walliams.Moss will make her theatrical debut later this month, most likely as a shellsuit-wearing pal of teenager Vicky Pollard.The special show, Little Britain's Big Night, takes place on November 22 in aid of Comic Relief.Walliams persuaded Moss to take part after she and boyfriend Pete Doherty went to see Walliams and partner Matt Lucas perform.He said: "Kate has natural comic talent. It's just that most people don't know it because they see her in pictures and beautiful people aren't allowed to be funny."But I know she's going to be great. It's a real coup and we're absolutely chuffed."Meanwhile, pop impressario Simon Cowell said he would sign Kate Moss on a huge recording contract - even if she can't sing a note.The X Factor judge revealed his desire to launch a pop career for the supermodel after she sang with Doherty at a recent concert in Dublin.He said: "The thing about Kate is that she's a star - it's the 'Kate factor'. People attach themselves to her and instantly become interesting."The pop guru has insisted he would not include Doherty in any deal however.He said: "There's no way I would take him on. I doubt he'd turn up for anything."© Independent Television News Limited 2006. All rights reserved.
