Simon Cowell has earned the nickname King of Mean for a reason, he is mean. But ever since he became a dad to not only his son but also his pooches, he has gotten a little nicer. Yesterday on America’s Got Talent, he did a first for himself.
After Sara Carson and Hero the Super Collie did their act, neither Howie Mandel nor Mel B thought that they should move on the next round. When the dog trainer started to cry, not only did Cowell go up there to comfort her; he got Mandel to change his vote. That meant with the two men and Heidi Klum voting for Sara and Hero, they got to advance to the next round.
Just when you think you have seen it all in Reality Television, they still manage to surprise us. Whoever thought that Cowell would go that length that he did to save a contestant who was about to eliminated, but he did? I sure as heck thought it would be a cold day in hell before that would ever happen, but we had a warm Spring.
When it comes Sara and Hero’s routine? I thought it was OK but not as great as Simon thought it was. I like dog acts but I was not that wowed by this one. What did you think?

If Simon Cowell ever decides to retire, we won’t have to worry about his dynasty coming to an end. That is because his 3-year-old son is ready and able to take over his father’s reign.
Yesterday on America’s Got Talent, Prince Eric showed us that is more than willing to “press the scary button all day.” Which means that someday in the future, he will be known as the King of Mean just like is father is now, and it seems like he will be a supreme one at that. So to the future talent contestants of the World, it doesn’t look like you will be ever be able to avoid the Cowell Monarchy. Be good or be mocked!
ABC picked up American Idol for a 16th season this week and they are having a problem finding people from the Fox version to join their show.
The Voice announced in the last 2 days that they hired Oscar winner and American Idol season 3 contestant Jennifer Hudson and the original American Idol winner Kelly Clarkson as coaches for their upcoming seasons. That means those are two alumni that they cannot hire for Idol.
What about their most famous and loved judge Simon Cowell? He told Extra they asked him, but he told them “no”. They he explained why, “I have no interest. My memories are when we first started. It was a different time with Randy [Jackson], Ryan [Seacrest] and Paula [Abdul]. You can’t recreate that.” He also revealed to Terri Seymour that he left the show for a reason and has not regrets for doing so.
What about host Ryan Seacrest? He told Extra, “I would love to do it, but I got this job right now.” Of course that job is Live with Kelly and Ryan. My theory is he wants his old salary and ABC doesn’t want to pay him twice. Therefore, money not time is ABC’s biggest problem with him signing on for the reboot.
Who can Idol get? I am sure they can Randy Jackson, because what else is that dog doing? When it comes to the other possible Judges, I am sure they can get William Hung and Sanjaya Malakar, That is if they can find them.
Granted after having said all of this, I think that American Idol should start completely over. New faces would be a good thing.
Simon Cowell loves to show off his chest by wearing his shirt half unbuttoned and that could be a problem for him when it comes to being on camera. The makeup department of America’s Got Talent made his face look good for air, but they didn’t have the talent to do the same for his chest. His top half is fair, but his bottom half is tan.
Thankfully, Heidi Klum left her mark on his face to distract our eyes from the mismatched skin.
Was it enough to help move on to the next round or do you think he needs an X?

So yesterday, I am sitting down checking my Twitter feed when I see Nick Cannon and Heidi Klum Live Tweeting about an act on America’s Got Talent and saying, “Not the nipples! Not the nipples!” As soon as I saw that, I knew I had to see what the hell they were Tweeting about.
They were talking about The Baron of the Universe who lifts heavy things with the assistance of medal rings from different parts of his body. Like his the middle of his nose, his eyelids and his nipples. The last one was too much for the Klum and Mel B who turned around. Simon Cowell moved his hands from covering his eyes to his nipples back to eyes and finally over his nipples again. We know how much he loves those things, so this was really painful for him. Then there was Howie Mandel who watched it without a problem.
Finally, there is us the audience, both at home and at the show, who were doing the same moves as the King of Mean. In fact, it is tough for me to type this because my hands are still on my nipples. Which is probably why, Cowell immediately declared, “My nipples hurt,” as soon as the act ended.
So is the Baron of the Universe moving on? Believe it or not, he is. I will skip that episode when it airs.
