This update is just here to show that I haven't died.
What's going on with Simon Cowell? Well, I'm all "geared up" for the Los Angeles auditions which are coming around this Sunday. It's back to crushing dreams, and making jeering comments on today's youth. I expect to see many snobbish people, and drama queens. What else is new?
You all better have watched Cupid. It's an interesting show owned by yours truly.
Can someone please shoot that Got Milk commercial with the man in the hospital? I've bloody seen in a million and a half times today. >:O

So many things can arise within a week's time. These things can forever change time. What the bloody hell is Simon Cowell talking about, you ask? I've seen things that could forever damage the soul..and I've heard things that can forever damage the future. Somewhere in this pitiful heart of mine, I feel for these kids. Whether they like it or not, I see a bit of myself within them. When I look at them, I see myself about 20 years ago. Making some of the same mistakes, and just finding out how tough life can be. Life's not all bells and whistles.. and I'm certain that they all found out the hard way.
I never intended to be a hero. It was one of those odd occurrences where I was at the right place at the right time. "I saved RJ Helton," doesn't seem like something I would parade around. I don't know what exactly happened to cause him to make any scary decisions, but I talked him out of it. I'm still trying to figure out how. I won't question it any longer. All that matters is that he's fine now.
I've heard about Andy Frances. I have actually spoken to the lad a few times. Never would I have thought that someone would attack him two times in two days. If people are that sick and pitiful to attack a man in the hospital. -clenches fist- I'm glad the sick bastard who did it was caught.
Yes, I have a heart. This is one of those rare times that scares even me.

I need to update more. I neglect this journal too much, which makes me sad.
I found out that I'm the namesake of a goldfish. I suppose that's exciting news.
And Fox has decided to sign me for another 3 American Idol seasons. I hope you all get sick of me.
I'm not in the greatest of moods. But I am glad that I spent today with some of the idol-ers. :/

I find this highly amusing. Look here children, you can box yours truly in a video game:
( Right This Way... )
Today I was sitting in a coffee shop, all by my lonesome mind you, and I saw this old woman get robbed before my very eyes. It's not like I could have done anything. She was across the street in Time's Square! It worries me how dreadful people can really be. What astonishes me more, is that certain groups of people think I'm the meanest thing to hit the world since killing puppies. Perhaps harsh critiquing is like stealing a purse from an old woman. In a hypothetical sense, mind you. I steal young pursuers of music's dreams as the robber does to a purse. Does this make me more of a villain? Yes. Will I stop? No.
Kelly Clarkson did an excellent job performing 'America, the Beautiful.' in New York City. I'm certain that she's made America proud with her rendition of the song. Is it just me, or are Tamyra and Kelly just pure talent? I was watching the result show for American Juniors last week, and she blew me away. I'm proud to say that these two are under 19 management.
Speaking of Idol girls, I heard that Ryan Starr will be in a Broadway play of some sort. Enough said; congrats.
RJ Helton thinks that I'm avoiding him. What? Me? Never.
It's 3:38 AM. That has nothing to do with my update. Farewell! Oh, and I will be getting 2 new icons. Once I make them, of course.

Have you all heard of that new television show called Bonzai? I'm just warning you ahead of time that I'll be involved in one of the opening stunts with Lou Ferrigno, and Kelsey Grammar. I can't tell you what the stunt is of course, because that would plain be cheating! It'll be a rather interesting show. It involves wheelchair chicken, shopping cart jousting, and helium balloons carrying chickens. Now hmm, which one would Simon Cowell and two other people participate in? You'll have to find out July 13th.
I've been extremely busy as you can tell. This July 4th is America's Independence day, and also the day where "Salute To American Idol," will run. Didn't you hear? I'll be on the show. More power towards watching it! I'll also be on the show with contest winners Kelly Clarkson and Ruben Studdard. There's two other people that'll be there. I'm too lazy to type out their names. I'm cruel like that, remember?
And if you've been wondering what I have been doing in my spare time, I've written a book. It's called The X Factor and I order you all to get it!
"The book looks at all aspects of the pop industry from record companies and management to choosing an image and dealing with press and promotional work, covering real-life successes and failures. Do you have to be thin and attractive? Can you rely on personality alone? What exactly is that elusive X-factor? "
Other then my hectic schedule, it's been all work and no play. You either have to focus on your career, or slum around. And Simon Cowell doesn't slum around.
Can someone shut up Deborah Gibson? Everything is cheerful in that bloody world of hers. If I were judging that show, I would flat out tell the children that they weren't doing their best. Yet she continues to overly sugar each word that comes out of her mouth. She's an insult to all judges, I'm starting to miss Paula.
Tamyra you were splendid on American Juniors! I was actually looking forward to this weeks results show, even with the 'suspenseful' music they continue to play.
I hope you all have a dreadful fantastic day, morning, night...whichever it is in your time zones.

I'm remodeling my home. When I say home, I'm referring to the one in California. It should be exciting I suppose.
If all you Idol fans didn't know, I'm most likely coming back to AI Season 3 to judge. It wouldn't be the same without me.
All the idolers went to Hawaii without me? That's what I get for being busy with RCA.
I'm thinking about judging an episode of American Juniors.
I think I should write more, but I won't bother. Cheers!

Happy Birthday Christina!
I'm sorry that I can't make it to your party -chuckles- I'm rather busy today with RCA this week.

I could go on about how great a person you are, but you already know that. Best of wishes today!

So I finished watching this show called 'American Juniors.' Justin Guarini was a judge, which was pretty interesting indeed. I'm sorry you had to sit by the extremely annoying blond.
I felt like I was watching a bad episode of cabaret karaoke. From the entire group, I only saw three possible talents. And five are to be chosen tomorrow night? I worry for this pop group.
Is it just me, or should I be worried that young children are forming a pop group? Have we not learned from the collapse of 'Dream Street' or 'The Spice Girls?' Groups don't last.
And who was that girl who was sugarcoating every comment? She's a disgrace to all judges. I couldn't help but tune out that sqeaking noise escaping her mouth. And she's a singer? Pathetic.
They better not ask Simon Cowell to judge. I honestly don't know what I would tell these children.
Overall Danielle won me over. She had some talent, good for her. She'll make it through to the next round, if that's how this show works.
I'm sure that people are going to start yelling at poor old Simon now. Don't worry kiddies, I'm just getting started. But for now, I leave you with this quote:
"If that song were oxygen, and my mother was suffercating, I would let her die rather than inhale that song."
Edit-Ruben Studdard made a cameo in Scooby Doo 2. Don't believe me? Click here.

It's Saturday. Here's what I continue to ask myself:
1) Why must my arm hurt? 2) Is there a way to block certain numbers from calling? 3) What's everyone's fascination with Saula or Pimon? 4) Why must people lurk? 5) Does anyone really miss me? 6) Hi I'm Simon, there's just a number 6. 7) When will it be illegal for bad singers to do karaoke? 8) When will it be illegal for bad singers to sing? 9) Will you watch my dating show Cupid? 10) I'm just bored. So therefore there is a number 10.

Ryan, Christina, Tamyra and I had a party yesterday. If you consider a party being around 9 in the morning, then party indeed! I'm going to give some 'shout outs' now -shrugs-
Alexis Bledel-Hi Alexis, I miss my random chats with you. It's too bad you don't like morning oranges. Christina Christian-You're a gorgeous great friend. Good luck with you and RJ. Kelly Clarkson-You are Wonder Woman did you know that? You have a hectic schedule, yet continue to have time to speak to the little people. I congratulate you on your accomplishments. Might I say you're a great friend? Have a jolly good time in England! Andy Frances-I'm glad to see that you're having such a splendid time hosting Australian Idol -smirks- You're an interesting chap! RJ Helton-I'm going to kidnap your camel Hello. Good luck with your upcoming single? From what I've been told, it's coming out soon. I'll have to listen for it. Ryan Starr-Your fashion line is coming out soon, and from what I heard an album. I shall be critiquing both -chuckles-
It's great to know that Simon Cowell has friends.

Much to everyone's dismay, Simon Cowell is alive. Look at me, I'm being random.
So I watched American Juniors this week. What do I have to say? Pathetic, simple as that.
I went on a date with Paula. Enough said.

So I woke up at 4:50 this morning. Big surprise since I'm not a morning person. Someone left 41 messages on my pager. Crazy woman.
I've had my morning coffee, and orange, and find myself fully energized. I enjoy being awake before the sun comes out. Perhaps I will wake up this early more often.
Congratulations to Christina and RJ. They're engaged again. Who knew? This crazy old man better be invited to the next wedding, or else consequences will be dire.
Hi Andy. Don't kill the AI4 contestants all right? I know Seacrest tried to once Opps.

So I've received a bunch of sympathy from my fellow friends. I just want to say thank you all. It helps knowing that you all care for me. It's helped me through this. I've come to the conclusion that I never needed Terry.
I've listened to "there's many fish in the sea" and "it's only one turtle in the zoo." I actually don't comprehend the last one. But you get the picture, I must move on. And that's what I plan on doing.
Paula's been oddly supportive towards me. She gives me that puppy glare pleading for my revival. It's not like I care or anything. It's just..odd.
I've been hiding these past couple of days. I'm sorry. I'll be normal soon, I promise.

Terry broke it off with me. I'm speechless. This is probably the closest thing to being voted off. It...hurts.
She told me that there wasn't enough time for her. I try, my God do I try. I can't always be there for her, I'm always busy. And when I am with her, it seems like we have nothing in common. I do hope that she didn't go out with me because I was Mr. Mean. I do see myself as a person, as odd as it may be. Perhaps I was never meant to love.
Something tells me this has to do with the Paula video. It was acting..I guess it was more realistic then I thought. I miss my Tear Bear.
If I don't speak to you, just know that I'm sorry. I feel awful, just dreadful. Yes Simon Cowell has a heart, and if you don't mind I'm about to sit and stare at the wall some more.
Simon

I've spoken to Tamyra Gray, Kelly Clarkson, RJ Helton, and Ashton today. They're all quite interesting and moderately insane. Who knew that nickles could be female and be named Phillip? RJ Helton turned me into a breakfast, and Tamyra threw poptarts at me since she doesn't know what a tart is! Kelly, thank you for being sane. =)
I still wish to speak to the bride to be Christina Christian. I havn't seen her since..actually the finale. But otherwise, I've spoken to just about everyone on my list. Except for Clay and Carmen, I wonder where they've been up to. And where did my Alexis go? She must be hiding from me.
For everyone wondering if I'm going to be doing a 3rd season of American Idol, it's most definately undecided at this point. I'm not sure if I would rather like being in England doing retirement, or judging another Idol. It just depends if the next season carries over during the summer of 2004.

The show's over. What more can I say? Congratulations Ruben.
I've met and reacquainted myself with many people these past couple of days. I've met Alexis Bledel, she's quite interesting you know. We share a common interest in panda bears. Who knew? I'm surprised that she wasn't afraid of me. Have I turned softy? Well lets see. RJ Helton pointed at me and screamed ''LOSER!" I don't see how I'm the loser. I was greeted by a familiar face. Despite everything that has happened to her, Kelly Clarkson is the same likable free spirited girl. It amazes me, because by now many artists become completely snobby if they don't have their 'Starbucks' in the morning. To the fellows of BBMak, thank you for the greeting. I was completely rude towards you when you first saw me years ago. I wish you all well, and resent not being able to sign you all.
I don't know what I'm going to do now that Idol is over. Perhaps I'll go back to England? Right now I feel like critiquing my refrigerator. Need I say more?
I am fearful for American youth. You're suppose to speak English, yet I hear words like 'hood' and 'holla.' Wouldn't this be considered a new language perhaps?
( This Was An Actual Conversation.. )
I still await to speak to the following people: Kelly Clarkson, Justin Guarini, Clay Aiken, Christina Christian, Tamyra Gray, RJ Helton, Carmen Rasmusen and perhaps any other brave soul who wishes to speak to me. I shall be crossing out names if I have spoken to you. Don't fret, I'm not going to yell at you. Well, that is if you don't yell at me. Be kind to me 'aight'.
Simon

I said it yesturday, and I'll say it again. Tonight is going to blow you all away. I know who wins American Idol. Of course I do but unfortunately so do the producers, Paula Abdul, Randy Jackson, and Ryan Secreast. It'll surprise you all, no doubt about. Good show Clay and Ruben.
I was drinking my coffee this morning and came across this channel known as MTV. Of course I've heard of the thing, it's just that I've never actually taken any of my free time to watch it. I saw Kelly Clarkson's video 'Miss Independent' and thought, "Dear lord..Clay or Ruben I'm censoring the winner can't you tell? will have to come up with some jazzy video like that!" I can only imagine Ruben dancing around the room screaming "MISS INDEPENDENT!" But of course, Clay may pull it off. I know their song won't be anything like Kelly's, it was just a random thought.
Two brave souls have walked across my journal. I would like to thank both Keri Russell, and a personal favorite Kelly Clarkson for welcoming here to journal land. I'd expect more, but I'm Simon; what do you expect?
I'm debating on something. She's here, it's just that she's not here. Oh well. Boo..Simon. Ignore that entire last paragraph.
I'm awaiting for more brave souls to completely trash me. "Simon, YOU SUCK!" was a personal favorite of mine. Who will top that? I'm waiting..
Simon

Well bang the pots and pans kiddies, the big bad wolf has come. What else can I say..boo?
For those who don't know me, I'm Simon Cowell. America's most notorious critic aka Mr. Mean. America expects me to be a jerk, a cad, a heel. Must someone muzzle me? I judge a little show by the name of American Idol. You might unfortunately know Paula Abdul, who considers herself better then I. She's in love with me, someone bring us to Vegas. And then there's Randy Jackson, who's a broken teddy bear who rambles "Dude..dawg..dude." Why can't it be only I who judge? That was a joke, I enjoy the presence of Paula making out with me at any point. Randy however..*shrugs* Honestly, if you don't know what that is, someone needs to beat you with a stick! Kelly won American Idol with 58% of the vote. Maybe it'll be a 51, 49 split this year? Well anyways, tomorrow we crown the next American Idol. It will be a magical Fox moment. Tears will be shed. Same senario? Bloody hell, it's deja vu.
I'm off to get ready, it's a big night you know. And if you don't vote, then you're obviously an ignorant person. It's the final 2 for God's sake!
Simon
