Auditioning for the new XL Factor, Simon?
HE may be a millionaire music mogul – but that doesn’t mean he’s immune from the dreaded summer bulge.
Simon Cowell appeared to have put on a few holiday pounds as he popped to the supermarket in Malibu, California, with his four-year-old son Eric.
His cheeks looked puffier than usual and he seemed rather tired as he pushed his son through the car park in a shopping trolley shaped like a red racing car.
But while his physique may have changed a little, his favourite outfit remains the same, and he was in usual white t-shirt and jeans.
His trolley was laden with bags, but Cowell, 58, had enlisted some help as he left Ralph’s Market – as the nanny was in tow.
However, it won’t be long before summer is over and the talent show judge will be getting that start of term feeling – as he is set to return to The X Factor next month.
He will be joined this year by new judges Robbie Williams, his wife Ayda Field and former One Direction star Louis Tomlinson.
