SM scalar and extra singlet(s)

Abstract

I discuss the question whether it is possible that the LHC will find no signal for the Higgs boson. It is argued that in this case singlet scalars should be present that could play an important role in astroparticle physics. A critical view at the existing electroweak data shows that this possibility might be favored over the simplest standard model. In this case one needs the ILC in order to study the Higgs sector.
