Media mogul Simon Cowell is said to be in secret talks with supermodel Cara Delevingne about her music career, with the Syco Records boss seeing her as a potentially huge star.
The media mogul is said to see the model – who previously gave up a deal with the X Factor boss’ rival Simon Fuller – as a potentially huge star and while a contract hasn’t been offered, the two parties have been having private meetings.A source told the Sunday Mirror newspaper: “Simon reckons Cara has the chance to make them both money. His people haven’t offered her a record deal but have been interested in talking to her.”
According to the reports, Cara is keen to develop her career naturally rather than use Syco Records as a fast-track to the top – which would see her get a lot of exposure on the likes of The X Factor UK and Britain’s Got Talent.
Meanwhile, it is said while the pair have met, they were “informal” and no deal is on the table as of yet. An insider added: “There were a couple of informal meetings earlier in the year.”
It was recently claimed the Burberry model launched her music career in a “dive pub” in New York. During the solo gig, Cara reportedly sang several original tracks along with a set of covers, which she performed acoustically at the small venue.
