More quotes by Simon Cowell
Not everybody is perfect, and I don't think we should be looking for perfect people.
Simon Cowell
So I would only feel guilt if I misled somebody who was terrible.
Simon Cowell
I was living life like in one of those Disney movies, where I genuinely believed nobody was ever going to die
Simon Cowell
I like spaghetti bolognese, I like baked beans on toast. I hate French food. I hate fancy food.
Simon Cowell
What I'm interested in watching is to make sure that they give the right advice now to the contestants who are going forward because, you know, it's one thing just to criticize but you've got to also give, you know, good advice which is going to help them. Overall, I think they're a good panel.
Simon Cowell
Talking to celebrities is too much effort. They all think the same.
Simon Cowell
Harshness to me is giving somebody false hopes and not following through. That's harsh. Telling some guy or some girl who've got zero talent that they have zero talent actually is a kindness.
Simon Cowell
My dad wasn't someone who was a great disciplinarian, we had a fun relationship, but he gave me really constructive advice in my life, which I still carry today and I do pass on to other people. So if I can have the same relationship with my son as I had with my dad, then I think he'll be very happy and I'll be very happy.
Simon Cowell
It's not our intention to be mean. That's just within us.
Simon Cowell
I think of stress as the creator of cancer and heart attacks, like a tiny little ball you feed. I believe that one of the reasons I've never got ill is that I'm not stressed.
Simon Cowell
Women say hello and then put their hands down my trousers. I thought it was my hand they were supposed to shake.
Simon Cowell
If I went to a psychiatrist, it would be a long session. I've always thought that I do have a number of issues that probably need dealing with, because I am quite odd in some ways.
Simon Cowell
I turned down many chances to be on TV before 'Pop Idol' because I really wasn't interested in being famous. I didn't need it and didn't want it.
Simon Cowell
For the music business, social networking is brilliant. Just when you think it's doom and gloom and you have to spend millions of pounds on marketing and this and that, you have this amazing thing now called fan power. The whole world is linked through a laptop. It's amazing. And it's free. I love it. It's absolutely brilliant.
Simon Cowell
I work out three or four times a week, I have Botox, take tons of vitamins and vitamin infusions - if you believe that these things work, you will feel better.
Simon Cowell
I grew up when the whole Motown thing was huge. The charts in those days were dominated by groups more than solo artists at one point.
Simon Cowell
I think that by ignoring the show you're ignoring the audience who put you there.
Simon Cowell
I don't have sophisticated tastes. I have average tastes. If you looked in my collection of DVDs, you'd see 'Jaws' and 'Star Wars.' In the book library, you'd see John Grisham and Sidney Sheldon. And if you look in my fridge, it's, like, children's food - chips, milkshakes, yogurt.
Simon Cowell
I can't think of one person who is on TV who isn't vain. It's the nature of the beast. If you are on TV then you have a vanity, for sure. Just admit it! Why not?
Simon Cowell
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.
