Simon Cowell Does Simon Cowell Quite Well

Simon CowellMove over Ryan Seacrest there is competition in town! Simon Cowell has a personal goal to globally dominate television according to CNN.

Friend and and former colleague, Peter Waterman, had the following to say about the situation:

“He wants to own everything, he wants to be the biggest — he wants to be a billion dollars a year man and he’s going to be the first guy to do that. It’s not about the money for him. He wants to say that he created history by being the first man that became a worldwide brand.”

Waterman recalls Simon’s desires dating almost 10 years back saying:

Simon believed that he could dominate television and I’ve got to be honest, but that is an incredible assumption that I’d never seen anyone make. If you told me that Cowell would now be the biggest entertainer on the planet — we’re talking about someone who doesn’t present, who doesn’t sing, who doesn’t dance — he does one thing and that’s being Simon Cowell.”

Its quite apparent Simon Cowell doing Simon Cowell works out excellent for him. He remains the highest paid judge on the hit reality show, American Idol, and according to reports will be paid nearly $175 million when he leaves the show and launches his “X Factor” show in the U.S. next year.

“He doesn’t own ‘American Idol‘ and he only gets paid to appear on the show, but he does own ‘X Factor‘ and he owns the whole brand.” Waterman said. “The fight between the U.S. “X Factor” and “American Idol” will be the biggest in entertainment history.”

I agree. I’m excited to see what happens. Something tells me Simon will achieve his goals. What do you think?

    I think he will be big! If he’s not already! People love those who speak their mind (on television, not so much in real life).

    I noticed that too Timmyfan. If you speak your mind on TV you’re some kind of a hero, but when you speak your mind out in the real world most times you’re considered to be a rude jerk.
