Simon Cowell whisks BGT winner Pudsey off in his private jet(pics)
Britain's Got Talent boss Simon Cowell and his precious pooch Pudsey the dog are headed for Hollywood.
The BGT 2012 winner Ashleigh Butler and her loveable mutt have been treated to a VIP trip to LA, New York and Las Vegas by doting media mogul Cowell.
No expense has been spared in making sure Pudsey travels in the style he has become accustomed too.
Already familiar with being ferried around in Simon's Rolls Royce Phantom, Pudsey's taste for the high life is set to rocket now he has flown in first class position on board Simon's private jet.
Upon arrival in the U.S. Pudsey will have to show his skills off stateside, as Simon's signed him up for a two week tour of America.
Ashleigh and Pudsey, who hail from Northamptonshire, won £500,000 after winning the ITV talent show in May.
The teenager says she is saving the money but has bought her beloved Pudsey a few treats, adding: ‘I have got him a brand new poof and of course more luxury dog biscuits which he loves, he’s also had a nice new collar, but I am going to save the money to make sure I can take care of him for the rest of his life.’
If the work keeps flooding in, it is estimated that Pudsey could make around £10 million in the next five years in TV and personal appearances alone.
He is also set to make a small fortune from merchandise and has this week signed a £350,000 for his Autobiography.
Pudsey, who is a cross breed between a border collier, Chinese crested powderpuff and bichon frise, was bred by Ashleigh’s mother Penny.
We will have to wait and see whether the Americans share Simon's puppy love or think he's barking mad?!
