Simon Cowell returned to Britain’s Got Talent tonight and boy did he make an entrance. The media mogul was elevated to the stage surrounded by smoke as the Superman theme played and he was just as smug as ever. Would we have it any other way?
Then he took his seat among the other three judges and the hosts teased him about Cheryl Cole being fired on the US version of The X Factor. Ant and Dec (since I don’t know which is which) said to him, “Can you understand my accent?” Referring to that is the “reason why” she was let go. Simon blew it off with a smile by saying, “Am I missing something here? I just got back, what’s been going on?” Nice way to avoid the question that everyone has been waiting to hear about for a week on both sides of the pond. Seriously why hasn’t Fox or him said anything about it yet???
But back to Mr Mean, his best line came later on when the hosts asked him if he planned on using his buzzer a lot during the semi-finals. The former-American Idol judge said, “I think I am going to be using my left hand a lot tonight.” Once he realized what he said could be interrupted a different way, he had a big laugh and I even think he blushed a little.
I wish he would be as naughty and quick witted here in The States when he returns to the judging table in the fall on Fox because that is the Simon Cowell I love. Seriously after watching his appearance in his home country, doesn’t it seem like he is holding back in his adopted one?

Simon Cowell and Paula Abdul were promoting The X Factor at the Fox Upfronts and I have to wonder if the media mogul has something to us about what he has going on with Paula Abdul’s nose? Seriously what is up with the way he is playing with her snout? I have never seen an adult do that to someone that wasn’t under the age of 5.
I guess you can say he nose what he is doing with her schnoz. Nyuck, nyuck!

Simon Cowell and Paula Abdul were caught kissing and I wonder if the two of them have something to tell us? Nope it is just the two of them celebrating being together again as judges on their first day of The X Factor along with LA Reid and Cheryl Cole.
Am I the only one who can’t get into this show with all the names that are attached it? I mean there is no one making me want to watch and that is including those two kissing in the above picture.
BTW what is up with is up his Wonder Woman pose?
Simon Cowell is not cheap when it comes to giving gifts, it is just what he gives might be considered inappropriate. The former-American Idol judge gave his X-Factor judges Botox. According to WENN Louis Walsh told Sharon Osbourne, “Right before going on stage, Sharon, on the final he says, ‘I’ve got a present for you three’, and he gives us envelopes… I got home and opened (it) – it’s £3000 worth of Botox… he gave it to me. I think he gave it to the wrong judge!” When Osbourne asked Walsh, “Are you winding me up?”, he replied: “No I’m serious… for all three of us… I’d never use it.” I don’t know about you, but I would consider using it if it were free, wouldn’t you?
It seemed like Simon Cowell and Mezhgan Hussainy’s were rushing things with their relationship and now his mom has confirmed it. His 85 year old mum told the Daily Mail that her son and his fiancee’ are on a break. She returned to the US while Simon is filming the UK version of X Factor. His mother added, “I think [the engagement] was too quick. This might give them the break they need to think it through. Marriage is a very, very big step.” I wonder if that means that his mother is not really a fan of her future-daughter-in-law by revealing this to the British paper?
Simon’s people denied the break and said she would be joining Simon in the next few weeks. We shall see…
