Simon CowellSimon Cowell unwittingly saved a girl's life when he said her voice sounded "weird" on TV show X Factor - she got it checked and doctors found a potentially fatal lung disease. Jacqui Gray received a withering put down by Cowell on the British talent show after she sang for him.

He told her, "Something weird happens in your throat when you sing." Gray went to a specialist - who found the condition in time.

She recalls, "I was told that if I had not caught it in time it could have killed me, which is frightening. I am just so glad that Simon said something, and that made me do something about it."

A spokeswoman for the show says Simon was thrilled Gray's problem had been diagnosed, adding, "It is great to hear that Jacqui is on the road to recovery."
