Quote Of The Day
Filed under: Anglophilia > Quote of the Day > American Idol > Simon Cowell
"There has to come a point when I will step down from being on camera and remain behind the scenes because you can't keep doing this for ever. I have three more seasons under contract with American Idol and that will be it. And it will probably come at the same time in the UK. I am contracted for another two or three seasons in Britain and I think by that point the public will be sick to death of me anyway and it will be time to go. Three years and that's it - I will do what I've always done. I run a record label, I run a TV company, we're making movies now - I love that part of my life. I probably get more satisfaction from making a show than being on a show. I've been lucky, but I also know when not to outstay my welcome."
- Simon Cowell told reporters this week, as a new season of X Factor is set to begin

YES! Only a few more years and AI is dead! I hate that show.

Oops… I guess I'm 2nd… nevermind!! (lol)
Anyway… I'm sick of Simon Cowell already! I'm happy that he created a complete media juggernaut and is making millions of dollars telling people they suck (don't we all wish WE could make money like that just for being too honest to people?) but I have grown immensly tired of American Idol, ya'll.
Who's with me on that one??
Perez is a porker
Everyone is already fucking sick of him. He's old news.
Eeeew! Three more seasons seems way too much! We're sick of your highwaisted pants NOW!
We're already sick to death of you.
Perezz is a porkerboy.
Poopypants!

ENSIMMÄINEN!N!!!
Perez have u seen that interview for the movie superbad. You have to post it its so offensive and so painful to watch. The interviewer is so rude! I dont know if its for real or just a joke but it's so funny. U gotta see it!
Nooo I love u Simon
we're sick of you now
simon rocks.
cooooool
2nd!
1st.
Guess what, that time has come and gone.
He missed the chance to bail before the public was sick of him ages ago.
Get sick of????????
Dude, been sick of you for YEARS!!!
Get the fuck over yourself and go back to England! AND take that crazy ass bitch Paula with you.
You have Ann Coulter ads on your website! Wtf dude, please do some reading on her…..maybe then you'll realize…you've been placing alien antennas and devil horns on all the wrong people!
ughh.
I LOVE Simon but AI sucks - so does the Brit show. He's smart to jump off of the dying ship as soon as he can.
simmon cowell is a peice of crap that has been laying the the corner of the studio for 100 years rotting…..
simmon cowell is a peice of crap that has been laying the the corner of the studio for 100 years rotting waiting for paula to pick him up and send him back to england…..
he's stepping down cuz he realized he's made BANK. the guy never has to work another day in his life…but i'm sure he'll still be doing a billion things. good for him.
LOVE YOUR HONESTY AND INSANELY TIGHT SHIRTS BBY.
I wonder if we'll be sick of Simon in three years….hmmm
I'm sure they will let him out of whatever contract he has. Go Now, PLEASE LEAVE AND TAKE ALL THOSE OTHER BRITS THAT ARE JUDGING AMERICAN SHOWS WITH YOU.
I just love how Simon can screw u Yanks for millions… loads comments about his "time is now over" .. sad thing is you're so stupid as to let him have his time in the 1st place… ROTFLMFAO…..
When is friggin Paula Abdul going to feel the same way as Simon??? Probably never. She is so desperate for attention that she TRIES to have her own reality show… that bomed!!! They all should give it up!!!
if idol is still popular three years from now i can guarantee you simon will stay, no matter what he says now. it's just a matter of the salary!
Simon Cowell is boring without Paula Abdul. I watch his other shows and they are much more boring. He needs Paula.
Smart move. May be a tad too late, but contracts are contracts. There are a mountain of other celebs that should take a page from Simon's playbook.
Simon needs Ryan's cock in his mouth!!!!
no matter what simon might think, Paula is the star of american idol, not him. she is the one people talk about and she is the only one who is famous even among people that have never watched American Idol. hey i had never even heard of simon until i started watching idol in 2006
I'm tired of the same tight black t-shirt
Simon is so hot. He is the best part of American Idol and has always been the only reason I watch. My daughter and I often say what he says before he even says it (channeling Simon?) and then high-five each other when he agrees. He tells the truth and that, and those tight shirts, are incredibly sexy. He reminds me of the kind of kid we all had in class growing up: the misunderstood smart ass in the back row who mouthed off to the teacher, was quite devilish, and brilliant. And the kind of guy many women fall hard and fast for later on.
I LOVE SIMON…HIM AND PEREZ SHOULD HAVE A SHOWDOWN…OBVIOUSLY SIMON WILL WIN!
Heard he drives em' nutz in the sheets
aww i love american idol and it will be sad to see him go. the show won't be the same.and he is by far the best judge….they're probably just gonna stop AI when he leaves:((
I love SIMON!
AI without him is NOTHING!
COOL…HE ROCKS!!..HE really does…You can tell he's not about bulshit!..DUH..
Once Cowell's gone, AI will be done with. I can't wait.
Actually, I feel like American Idol & Simon Cowell have already overstayed its welcome. I'm pretty shocked and disappointed to discover that we still have three whole long frickin' years of Idol ahead of us.
"overstay ur welcome"??? man…you are way past that time hun! I say you start walking now, buh bye
Love Simon. Keep it real, sweetie-dahrling.
He thinks the public will be "sick to death" of him in 3 years? Hell, we were sick of him 3 years AGO!
Not sick of your delightful candor as of yet, Simon.
What I enjoy about you is the same thing I enjoy in Roseanne and Sharon Osbourne. You have an unerringly accurate internal Bullshit Meter. Thank you.
'not out stay my welcome'???? Dear jesus surly the world would be a better place if that prick had just stayed behind the camera altogether??
Simon calls it as he *sees* it. He's pretty upfront. Sometimes cruel, but he cuts thru the bullsh*t. I think he's smart not overdoing it after his 3 years are up. I do like Simon though, he brings a much needed perspective.
Simon, you've OVERSTAYED your welcome by 5 seasons now. You produce absolute crap music, it's 'flavor of the moment', absolutley nothing of staying power. At least Randy Jackson has the skill and talent to produce everything from R&B, Rock, to country. THAT GUY is versatile and his opinions are the ONLY ones that are valid. Simon, you're a broken record, same attitude and put-downs each year, you are truly OVERRATED! Oh, and as each season is getting progressively lower ratings, you better hope your still RELEVANT in 3 years!
Oh hell no ! Sorry Simon but yur a keeper…
i hate this man with a passion, but i have to admit his pimp had is way strong.
"Perez, you are very fat and cannot sing" —Simon Cowell
Uhm, bad news, fuck face. I got tired of your ass after season one and stopped watching Idol then. I can get all the highlights of the TALENT on youtube and don't have to even look at your flabby man tits and bingo wings.
Can't hate a man who's honest.
Bugger off asshole sick of you already!
