The Britain’s Got Talent judge broke his back in August 2020 after he fell from an electric bicycle he was testing at his home in Malibu, California.
How many times has Simon Cowell had a bike accident?
Simon Cowell was seriously injured and hospitalized after suffering serious injuries in his second E-bike crash in less than two years. According to reports, Cowell, 62, was rushed to a hospital on Thursday near his west London home after suffering a broken arm, bruised cheek and a possible concussion after he wiped out while going 20 m.p.h. on the electric bicycle.
According to Us Magazine, a source said Cowell “is lucky to be alive” after the wheels went out from under him on wet pavement and he slipped and was sent flying over the handlebars. The magazine reported that Cowell was released from the hospital later on Thursday night with a sling holding his arm in a cast and orders to rest.
What Simon did to his face?
Simon was evidently in on the joke, laughing along, and has recently clarified that his change of appearance is due to cosmetic surgery. Has Simon Cowell had plastic surgery?
Simon does, however, insist that the rumours of his plastic surgery are massively exaggerated.
‘I haven’t had a facelift or anything,’ he told The Sun. ‘I have had a bit of Botox or whatever but kind of nothing drastic. So, when I hear about this stuff honestly, it does make me laugh. Over the years people have said that I’ve had everything done. But I don’t Google myself, so I genuinely don’t have a clue what everyone is saying about me until we do things like BGT.’
Simon didn’t share whether he’d experienced any health issues that might contribute to a change in appearance, but frankly he shouldn’t have to. With so much commentary around his ‘new face’, it appears the public think he’s fair game to troll for his appearance.
Is Simon Cowell still ill?

Truth : Simon Cowell Did Not Die Suddenly In Hospital
This is yet another example of FAKE NEWS created and propagated by people to generate income from page views and YouTube advertising, and here are the reasons why…
Fact #1 : No Legitimate Media Outlet Reported His Death
These YouTube videos have been circulating for weeks and months, but people don’t seem to notice that no legitimate media has reported his death.
Never mind his wealth, Simon Cowell is a celebrity in his own right. Even if he did not die, the worldwide media would have reported on his car accident or hospitalisation.

Simon Cowell – the long-time judge on Britain’s Got Talent and America’s Got Talent is still very much alive and well, as of Wednesday, 9 August 2023, when he was seen on America’s Got Talent Season 18!
On that day’s episode, he posted a video of Japanese dance group Chibi Unity getting the Group Golden Buzzer!

This photo that shows Simon Cowell on a hospital bed, was edited from a real photo of a kidney transplant patient called Gerhard van Tonder.
What did Simon Cowell actually do?
Cowell left EMI to form his own production companies — first E&S Music and then Fanfare Music — where he spent much of the 1980s producing hits and scouting talent before he went bankrupt and was forced to move back home with his parents.
Shortly after, however, Cowell joined the team at BMG Records (whose impressive artist list includes Mick Jagger and David Bowie), and was incredibly successful at signing acts.
Cowell joined Pop Idol, then American Idol
Cowell was cast as a judge for the UK’s Pop Idol, which Spice Girls creator Simon Fuller pitched to British channel ITV. It aired from 2001 to 2003, and was the start to an international Idol franchise, including American Idol. Pop Idol‘s first winner, Will Young, went on to produce chart-topping hits after claiming the crown.
In 2002, Cowell worked with Paula Abdul and Randy Jackson as a judge the inaugural season of American Idol, which became a huge hit. Over 22 million people tuned in to watch the season finale in which Kelly Clarkson beat out Justin Guarini for the title. (Of course, Clarkson went on to great success after the show, releasing myriad hit songs and ultimately becoming a Coach on The Voice.)
Why did Simon Cowell apologise?
Simon Cowell issued an apology during Friday night’s Britain’s Got Talent live show, after upsetting a young contestant with some of his critiques.
During the final stage of the semi-finals illusionist and quick change performers Matricks Illusion took to the stage, where they performed a routine in which a Simon Cowell lookalike was pushed into a rubbish compactor and turned into a paper cut-out.
However, the man himself was seemingly unimpressed with the routine, even going as far as pushing his buzzer during the performance.
Explaining his decision, he told the group: “It wasn’t magical enough. There was a lot of chaos
“We had a magic act on earlier in the week that was a lot better. This lacked, I don’t know, star power for me.”
However, what Simon presumably failed to notice was that the group’s youngest member had been moved to tears during his comments, prompting an apology later in the show.
“I just want to say something,” Simon said. “Going back to the very first act, I didn’t realise I had really upset someone.
