'Simon Cowell targets' added at Las Vegas gun range

An American shooting range has announced that it will offer paying customers the chance to fire at pictures of TV judge Simon Cowell.

The X Factor boss will join the likes of Osama bin Laden, Saddam Hussein and Muammar Gaddafi as potential targets at Machine Guns Vegas.

A spokesman for Machine Guns Vegas stated: "We agree with Martin Gore from Depeche Mode that Simon Cowell has committed heinous crimes against humanity, and single-handedly demolished real musical talent across the planet.

"The Cowell target is expected to become a popular target - ranking up there with Osama bin Laden."

Controversially, Depeche Mode's Martin Gore has previously said that Cowell "should be shot".

Cowell took to Twitter to respond to Gore, writing: "Why I am angry about weirdo gore is a ton of people have got shot this year and people.like weirdo gore encourage this."
