Simon Cowell, known for his role as a judge on America’s Got Talent, once shared his regrets about going overboard with facial fillers. In a candid conversation with The Sun, the star admitted there was a time when he may have taken things a bit too far with Botox injections. Reflecting on the experience, Cowell revealed that he once looked at an old picture of himself and barely recognized his own face, describing his appearance as something that “looked like something out of a horror film.”
The reaction from his family was equally telling. Cowell’s 8-year-old son, Eric, was reportedly in “hysterics” when he saw the changes to his father’s face, prompting Simon to realize it was time to stop the cosmetic treatments. He decided to ditch the fillers entirely, saying, “Enough was enough. There is no filler in my face at all now. Zero.”
Since then, Cowell has adopted a healthier approach to maintaining his appearance, focusing on drinking plenty of water and eating a balanced diet. Instead of relying on injectables, he now believes that better food and hydration are the key to staying fresh and youthful.
Cowell also reflected on his multiple e-bike accidents, including a serious fall in August 2020 that left him with a broken back. Despite the setbacks, he seems to be embracing a more natural, healthier lifestyle moving forward.
