GOING THE X-TRA NILE

FOLLOWING his successful stint on The X Factor Nile Rodgers is eyeing up his very own talent show focused on songwriting.

The Chic mastermind got the idea while guesting on a rival talent show in North America.

He told me:

“The show in Canada people were doing their own songs as well as covers. It’s a different format.”

Asked if he would be interested in doing a show like that in the UK he added: “Good idea.”

Catch Nile and a host of stars including George Ezra and Jess Glynne on Children In Need Rocks on BBC One tonight at 8.30pm.
