In the latest issue of GQ UK, Green says, “The plan is to take it to Vegas … We’ll have a permanent place. The home of The X Factor - live from Vegas ... It’ll all be online. You have 20, 30, 40 million people tuning in twice a week. You bring two or three hundred million viewers to a venue. It’s turning it up a peg.”
