Before Simon Cowell was judging contestants on shows like America’s Got Talent, he was a contestant on Sale of the Century. The 31-year-old was quite brilliant on the 1991 episode of the game show.
Simon Cowell was a guest on The Jennifer Hudson Show today, and her team had the perfect song for him to walk through the Spirit Tunnel to. What was it? The Greatest Show from The Greatest Showman!
While he is a showman who can pick the best acts for his circus, he is like P.T. Barnum and can’t do what they do! But the Ringmaster can still enjoy getting the attention from the crowd, and he did.
He told his old friend from his American Idol days, Jennifer Hudson, “The best way of coming on a show, seriously, I have ever done in my life.” And he has done a lot of shows through the decades.
Then he asked her if he could steal the idea for America’s Got Talent. She had one requirement for that to happen. What is it? That her people do it. And with that, they shook on it.
Will they be there? We will find out during AGT’s season finale episodes tomorrow and Wednesday! It is not like they have to travel far to get there. Warner Bros is across the street from Universal Studios, where the latter goes live!
A month ago, it was revealed that Heidi Klum was returning to Project Runway. So some wondered if she would be able to do America’s Got Talent and the fashion competition show.
Today, we got that answer. She cannot. So, instead, Mel B will be rejoining the talent competition show this season. The singer was previously a judge from the 8th-13th season.
England’s Scary Spice will sit alongside British Simon Cowell, Canadian Howie Mandel, and Colombian Sofia Vergara, and American Terry Crews will host.

AGT returns to NBC for its 20th season on May 27th.
Today is Simon Cowell’s 65th birthday, and the senior citizen sang Happy Birthday to himself.
By doing so, the music producer is pretty much saying that is why he produces music and is not a singer. Since it is his birthday, I will not be mean to the King of Mean, but you know what I am thinking.
The talent finder also said, “I am now at an age when you say how old you are, people clap. And that is depressing.” However, the old man doesn’t let it get him down because he added, “I’m alive. I’m healthy. I’m happy.”
And that is all we can ask for. Although, we could also ask for his wealth because he is very rich.
Happy birthday, Simon! Here is to many, many, many more!
Here is a trivia question for you: can you guess which Amwerican Idol winner shares a birthday with the judge?
Simon Cowell is one of the wealthiest people in entertainment, thanks to shows like America’s Got Talent and The X Factor and the musicians he produces. However, the competition show judge was seen working at Domino’s Pizza. So, has he hit hard times? Nope! He is just doing commercials for the pizza giant to promote their Quality Captains.
The Quality Captains ensure we get the best pizza. They hold customers’ pizzas to an even higher standard, checking every inch to make sure they’re made exactly to order.
“Domino’s demands greatness,” said Cowell. “They know exactly what it means to deliver the perfect pizza. Domino’s is a definite yes from me.”
And Cowell is the perfect person to get the word out about their pizza judges. It is a tough job, but someone has to do it. And I want to do it.
