1. Simon Cowell has apparently splashed out £40 million on a grade II listed Holland Park property. Yikes. He's too rich, he needs to give some of that cash to me.
2. Sinitta says Cowell is a bad influence on her kids, apparently. He's godfather to her adopted children Magdelena, three, and 19-month-old Zac. She told Now!: "He's a destructive influence, though! He's made it his sole purpose to disrupt and undermine everything I have taught them! When there's something they don't want to eat, Simon will take it and spit it out on the floor, so of course they copy him. The last time he was here he said he was going to take Magdalena home with him. I was like, 'Wow!'"
3. Finally, Paula Abdul says everyone should stop questioning Simon Cowell's sexuality, not least because he's got a girlfriend, okay? Abdul told Star magazine: "People say that all the time but no, he's not! His brother always jokes and says that he's gay but Simon has fun with it now. He's very comfortable in his skin. He's been doing more push-ups lately. There's no excuse for him to dress that way". Who cares, anyway?
