Here’s what Simon has to say about his recent split from longtime girlfriend Terri Seymour:
“She wants a different path in life, and I totally respect her for it. We will be the best of mates, but I think in relationships, you have to be totally honest. I have always been and I know Terri knows that … I find women confusing really. When you hook up and date, you’re both honest about what you want. I have never ever said that I want children or marriage. I know some people find it hard to fathom, but it’s me, it’s who I am. Bottom line is I am married to my job. When people moan about been a celebrity, I think ‘Oh please, sort yourself out – it’s the greatest job in the world.’ I wake up daily thanking my lucky stars, but to throw marriage into that mix is not right. I have seen too many celebrity marriages that on paper make a great mix, fall apart through ego and just plain celebrity madness .. There is no one new in my life. I can honestly say some of my best friends are girls, but we’re not dating, and that is that. Forget any lurid tabloid headlines. Myself and Terri will remain firm friends. We’re grown ups.”
Fabulous. Now I get to resume not caring about Simon Cowell until he’s caught sucking face with Paula Abdul for the contact high.
Good for Simon for being honest, with himself and with others. On American Idol he always tells it like it is and now he has done it again. I feel sad for Terri, but marriage and children are deal breakers. Better to get that clear up front.
Simon Cowell, get over yourself. It’s over. This is NOT American Idol! No one cares about you break-up. Go back to hookers.
You said, on the Howard Stern radio show, that you believe it is safe to have sex with them because they constantly go to the doctor to get checked out! Go for it!
OMG I don’t know how anyone would want to date that blow hard tool let alone sleep with him.
simon doesnt “tell it like it is” on Idol. he just tells his OPINION, and so does Paula. She tells her opinion too, and she just happens to have a much better track record at finding talent than he does..
Off Topic: Her Dress is effing awesome! I would wear that every day, sooo super cute!
“some of my best friends are girls..”
is anyone else imagining him on a swingset with his girl-friends, all under the age of ten?
i think the word you’re looking for, Simon, is “women.”
But really, it’s Terri’s fault. Simon Cowell has always maintained that he didn’t want to marry and didn’t want children. Hell, I respect that more than some guy that just lies about where he stands just to get a woman into bed. She thought he’d change his mind once they were together awhile. Stupid.
I think that he’s just holding out for paula. we all know he’s hot for her!
I’ve always thought his comments on the show regarding the contestants were the most accurate. Nice to see he’s living his life in the same true manner. File Under: Whatever Works For You
Keevy, I agree. I dont care about anything here except the dress! So freaking cute.
A man that truly knows who he is and what he wants in life. Most people take a lifetime some even a 6by6 pit to figure out what they want. This’ one honest celebrities ever heard of when it comes to issue with marriage.
It is much more to this breakup with Simon and Terri. The truth will come to the light.
