English television producer and Talent

not being rude but that was one of the
worst auditions I’ve ever heard
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
taking a look at the life and career of
Simon Cowell next Simon Phillip Cowell
was born on October 7th 1959 in London
England after attending preparatory
school he went on to study at Dover
College however he eventually dropped
out and then took on several small jobs
he finally got his start in the music
industry after being hired as a mailroom
clerk at EMI where his father was an
executive this led to a string of
positions at several record companies
Cowell achieved his first taste of
success at fanfare records during the
1980s when several of the independent
labels artists went on to achieve
top-ten hits
gotta be
after suffering financial difficulties
Cowell moved on to BMG and there he
signed a number of successful acts as an
A&R consultant
I do
it does
in 2001 he became a judge on the British
television series pop idol on this show
aspiring singers attempted to impress
judges and viewers with their talents
and the winner received a record deal it
was an instant success and Cal signed
the first season’s runner-up to his
label Syco
the next year he served as judge on the
US spin-off American Idol and this show
also drew high ratings a I went on to
produce numerous pop stars most notably
Jordin Sparks
Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson I
think you’ve just put yourself up in the
same league as Celine and Mariah Carey
congratulate Cal soon built a reputation
for himself as an extremely blunt and
critical judge and some even found him
to be rude to contestants you all one of
the worst sinners I’ve ever heard in my
life I’ve never ever heard anything like
that in my life one of the boys I’ve
ever heard in my life one point five out
of ten at most think that’s probably the
weirdest voice I’ve ever heard in my
life of course
this helped ratings even further and so
many Idol spin-offs tried to duplicate
the series successful formula by adding
a caustic personality similar to cowls
uwah busking your busking yeah you must
be the poorest busker I know
no one’s going to give you money except
to go away during this time Cowell was
also hard at work searching for singers
who could combine their vocals with
classical music this project came to be
known as ill Devo and the group’s first
album came out in 2004 the quartets
ability to sing with an operatic pop
style in several languages turned them
into an international success
that same year kal created the British
television series The X Factor he
appeared as a judge on several seasons
of the successful music competition
style show and even signed the third
season winner Leona Lewis to his label
in 2006 Cal became involved with a
number of different shows
these included Celebrity duets where
star sang with different partners
American inventor where budding
entrepreneurs competed against each
other and America’s Got Talent
where performers with various talents
showed off their skills the Got Talent
format went on to spawn several
spin-offs around the world my dreams a
dream inside one belong
that same year Cowell accepted a deal to
remain on American Idol for five more
years with this contract he earned over
30 million dollars per season then in
2007 he added to the charity work he
already did by creating a two-episode
television special called Idol Gives
back to raise money for the less
fortunate
while continuing with American Idol Cal
co-produced the British television drama
rock rivals in 2008 two years later he
had his last season on American Idol
this was followed by his role as judge
on the American version of The X Factor
which debuted in 2011 it’s a five
million dollar audition and you’re gonna
get the cash if you win he just better
be good though he may be most famous for
his disparaging personality Simon Cowell
