Simon Cowell Still Looking Unrecognizable at BGT Launch

Simon Cowell still looked unrecognizable when he arrived at the launch of Britain’s Got Talent on Tuesday.

The 63-year-old television mogul was one of the first to arrive at the London Palladium as he gave a thumbs up to the crowd as he was joined by hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly.

Simon, who recently shocked fans with his radically different features, was in high spirits as he made his way to the coveted theater, while hosts Ant and Dec were mobbed by the delighted crowd.

Donning one of his trademark casual outfits, Simon was in high spirits as he stepped out of his car outside the theater to head to the first auditions.

The highly anticipated new series began filming this week and is expected to hit screens in the spring.

Of late, Simon has raised concerns about his radically different facial features, looking unrecognizable in particular in a promo for Britain’s Got Talent.

The record label boss raised concerns with his ‘unrecognizable’ appearance at the Royal Variety Performance, which was filmed on December 2 and aired on ITV later that month.

My God! Of late, however, Simon has raised concerns about his radically different facial features, looking unrecognizable in particular in a promo for Britain’s Got Talent.

As Simon introduced BGT winner Axel Blake, he left viewers distracted by his impossibly smooth face, which may be the result of cosmetic surgery, with one asking, “What has he done to himself?”

The record producer had previously raised concerns about his appearance, and on Twitter, one viewer wrote: “Just saw Simon Cowell on Royal Variety, what has he done to himself?”

While another added: ‘What have you done to your face boy?’ and a third added: ‘Simon Cowell needs to stop getting facelifts!’

Agreeing, a fourth commented: “I went over the top during football half time and it was George Michael’s Simon Cowell commanding Wish onstage.”

Another said: ‘Simon Cowell did a ‘little job’ and more joked: ‘What the hell happened to Simon Cowell?’

He previously raised concern from fans in a promotional video shared on social media early last month.

The TV mogul looked unrecognizable as he sported an incredibly smooth complexion, sparkling white teeth, and enhanced features.

Simon recently revealed that he took his love of Botox too far, with his final treatment leaving him looking like “something out of a horror show.”

According to SunThe head of the talent show said he decided to stop when his strange appearance left his eight-year-old son Eric in hysterics.

The former X Factor judge, who shares his son with his partner Lauren Silverman, 44, revealed that he no longer has any fillers in his face as a result.

No doubt BGT fans were eager to find out who would make the final lineup on the judging panel, following the departure of David Walliams.

Bruno Tonioli seems to be the name on everyone’s lips after Alan Carr was thought to take over the role.

On Monday, it was claimed that Amanda Holden and Alesha Dixon were refusing to sign contracts for the final series of the show.

Who will it be? No doubt BGT fans were eager to find out who would make the final lineup on the judging panel, following the departure of David Walliams.

Legs for days! Simon’s co-judge Amanda Holden was also seen arriving at the auditions, putting on a leggy display in a pale blue blazer dress.

Giggles: Host Ant McPartlin, meanwhile, was mobbed by the crowd as soon as he arrived, which seemed to amuse him more.

Who will it be? There has been much speculation that Bruno Tonioli will join the judging panel, following David’s departure.

The duo are said to be furious that Bruno will see his new salary match his – an estimated £850,000.

According to Sun, Amanda and Alesha sent the latest series into chaos with bosses scrambling to secure TV favorites before filming begins in London next week.

A source told the publication: ‘Amanda has been with BGT for 17 years, while Alesha is in her 11th year. They don’t think it’s fair that a newcomer enters the program and receives the same treatment as them.’

“It’s a headache for BGT as filming for the next series begins at the London Palladium on Tuesday.”

“Bruno was also resolving his contract on Friday, so everything is at the last moment.”

MailOnline contacted representatives for Amanda, Alesha and ITV for comment.

Claims: Simon reportedly overruled ITV bosses who wanted comedian Alan Carr to join the judging panel, with the music mogul requesting that Bruno join the show

It was also reported that Bruno would get triple the salary he received on Strictly Come Dancing by joining the ITV judging panel.

Former Strictly judge Bruno has replaced David Walliams, who left the show last year, after ITV bosses who wanted comedian Alan Carr were overruled by boss Simon Cowell.

Bruno, who is said to be “delighted” to return to primetime Saturday night television in the UK, will now eclipse the salary of his former Strictly co-stars three times over.

Shirley Ballas, Craig Revel-Horwood, Motsi Mabuse and Anton Du Beke are believed to earn £250,000 per series on the Strictly judging panel.

It comes after a battle between Bruno, a close friend of Simon’s, and comedian Alan over the role. The show’s judges Alesha and Amanda were told the identity of their new colleague in the last week.

According to Katie Hind of the Daily Mail, Bruno has yet to sign the contract but has been formally offered the job following a tug-of-war between ITV and the BGT boss, who insisted he had the role following the departure of BGT. David.

Alan, 46, is understood to be “devastated” to lose the job he thought was his.

Final deal! It was also reported that Bruno would get triple the salary he received on Strictly Come Dancing by joining the ITV judging panel.
