Well, it's basically the viewers who determine it. We - well, basically the producers and myself chose the people we felt had the best reaction, you know, through the press, the Internet, the people we thought deserved a second chance. And they've chosen a winner, I believe.
Simon Cowell
The best way to kill someone is from the inside, by crushing their hopes and dreams.
Simon Cowell
I look at him [son Eric] and I think of my dad all the time.... I was born to be a dad.
Simon Cowell
Have I got a black book? Yes, it's called a mobile phone. I do get offers. There is no shortage of people if you want to go on dates - working in TV, living in L.A., it is there if you want it.
