 Simon Cowell Quotation"I'd accept an honour but I don't think I'm likely to get one. The Queen once described me as a dreadful man" To a Pop Idol contestant: "Let me throw a mathematical dilemma at you - there's 500 left, well how come the odds of you winning are a million to one?" [Asked if he feels guilty about what he says to the American Idol contestants] "No, what I am doing is kind by telling people who are useless 'Do something that you're good at'. So I would only feel guilt if I misled somebody who was terrible." "We've done three seasons of American Idol and by now it is safe to assume that most people know that you have to be able to sing. But people turn up who can't sing a note and yet they believe they are the Second Coming." "Sit in these auditions for three weeks and hear "I Believe I Can Fly" out of tune for the millionth time, YOU try and be nice" If you would have asked me what I thought of America before I came over here I would have used the word 'corny'. And then you come over here and you find that it's not corny at all. British people are very cynical, they cannot bear someone else's success. Americans embrace other people's success. Everything in America is larger than life. [To the infamous Keith who sang a horrible rendering of 'Like a Virgin'] "Keith, last year I described someone as being the worst singer in America. I think you're possibly the worst singer in the world ... I've never, ever heard anything like that in my life, ever." "I don't want babies the same way I wouldn't want a puppy. It's too much responsibility." Movie Title: Scary Movie 3 (2003) as Simon Cowell: [Simon Cowell is the judge at a rap freestyle battle] Simon Cowell : I thought they were both absolutely dreadful. Ghastly. I don't know what I'm doing here. This club is totally pathetic. [Rappers pull out handguns and shoot him] Movie Title: American Idol 2 (2002) as Simon Cowell: [someone performed Madonna's "Like a Virgin" at an American Idol audition] Simon Cowell : Best singer in America, eh? I'd say you are the worst singer in America. Simon Cowell : You can't sing, you can't dance so what do you want me to say? William Hung : Umm... I already gave my best and I have no regrets at all. Paula Abdul : Good. Randy Jackson : Good, now that's good. Paula Abdul : That's good William, that's the best attitude. William Hung : I have no professional training whatsoever when it comes to singing. Simon Cowell : [laughing] Now that's the surprise of the century. Paula Abdul : William, you're the best, you're the best. Simon Cowell : Rather like dinner with Paula Abdul: sweet but forgettable. Simon Cowell : You look like a pen salesman, and you have the personality of a mouse. Entrant: [sings "I'm So Excited" off-key] Simon Cowell : [after that entrant sings the words "I'm So Excited"] We're not. [after John Stevens, known for his crooning big band-like style, performs during Salsa week] Simon Cowell : You and Salsa go together like chocolate ice cream and an onion. Movie Title: Hollywood Squares (1998) as Simon Cowell: Tom Bergeron : First, he was Prince. Then, he was The Artist Formerly Known As Prince. After that, he was simply The Artist. What is he known as now? Simon Cowell : The Artist Who Formerly Sold Records. |
