David Cameron watches The X Factor
David Cameron is a fan of The X Factor.
The Prime Minister, who has children Nancy, seven, Elwen, five, and 15-month-old Florence with wife Samantha, tunes into the TV talent show with his eldest daughter, but says he is not a fan of the early rounds of the competition because of the eccentric contestants they attract.
Mr Cameron said: "Nancy loves The X Factor but I wait until nearer the end of the series. I can't be dealing with the man in the silver suit."
While the politician is happy to watch The X Factor, he is not a fan of fly-on-the-wall reality show The Only Way Is Essex, which Samantha's father Sir Reginald Sheffield suggested he watch.
He told Grazia magazine: "My father-in-law told me I should watch it, which is very funny, so I saw about half an episode but it was just too raucous for me."
Mr. Cameron is not the only celebrity who likes to watch The X Factor with their kids.
Supermodel Kate Moss is a huge fan of the show and even themed her daughter Lila's recent ninth birthday party around the programme.
A source said at the time: "Lila is a massive X Factor fan and so is Kate. It's become a Saturday night tradition, sitting together and rating each act.
"Kate came up with the idea of having an X Factor-themed party and wants to make it as realistic as possible."
