Pop mogul Simon Cowell wants to sign supermodel Kate Moss for a recording contract because of her star quality – not for her singing ability. ” I would like to offer Kate Moss a recording contract, whether she can sing or not,” explains the British `Idol’ judge. “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 32-year-old catwalk queen is certainly hot property at the moment; she won Model of the Year at the fashion industry’s oscars recently and last month she was named the most influential celebrity in the world in a poll by the search engine Google.
