More quotes by Simon Cowell
I like spaghetti bolognese, I like baked beans on toast. I hate French food. I hate fancy food.
Simon Cowell
We have hated the French for years. Now you have just joined the club. It makes you much more likable.
Simon Cowell
I have always hated celebrities lecturing people on politics. So forgive me. But I am passionate about this country. I am equally passionate about the potential of the people who live here.
Simon Cowell
I've always treated the music business as a business.
Simon Cowell
Sincerity is romantic. I don't think you need gestures.
Simon Cowell
I think if you're an unhappy person, you're always going to be an unhappy person. You're probably going to be less unhappy if your business is doing well, if I'm being honest.
Simon Cowell
It was like orderin a hamburger and getting only the buns
Simon Cowell
The young people working for me are ambitious and hard-working. That work ethic has always been a trait of the British.
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
It's the government's job to encourage entrepreneurialism and investment. Most importantly, it's the government's duty to inspire confidence.
Simon Cowell
My proudest achievement has been the success of the shows and artists I have been involved with, because they were made in Britain.
Simon Cowell
The feelings that we equate with love-feeling sick, feeling insecure, not eating-that's just lust getting in the way. It's your ego saying, 'I want to get laid' and 'I hope she likes me more than I like her.' Love is something that should be there in 20 years' time.
Simon Cowell
If we had to choose one American Idol to go out to dinner with, it would be Fantasia. There are no airs and graces about her. ... I like her.
Simon Cowell
If you've got a big mouth and you're controversial, you're going to get attention.
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
The artists who endure are the ones who stay focused even after they have reached the top of their profession.
Simon Cowell
I have very good advice to give to kids this age, which is, you shouldn't listen to your mum or dad and you just have to work it out for yourself. And the reason I've taken the age range down this year, and I never would have done it 10 years ago, is what I've seen with the success of Willow Smith. You don't have to be so cutesy anymore.
Simon Cowell
I break up very well. I am a good breaker-upper.
Simon Cowell
Not everybody is perfect, and I don't think we should be looking for perfect people.
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.
