English music mogul and TV personality Simon Cowell has been hospitalised after breaking his back after falling from his bike at his home in Malibu. A spokesperson for Cowell said he underwent surgery last night and is said to be fine. We are not yet sure on how it will affect the first live show of America’s Got Talent on the 11th of August.
Luckily the break does not seem to be that bad as the spokesperson went on to also say “He’s doing fine, he’s under observation and he’s in the best possible hands.” This should be very encouraging for his fans whose worries have been answered with this. Unfortunately, it does seem as if Simon could miss the first live performance of America’s Got Talent if he is not 100% when Tuesday comes around.
Today is a very special day.
I was lucky enough to meet five guys. Who were so much fun. So talented. It feels like 10 minutes ago. And you made it happen. pic.twitter.com/zuPhXaz3qt— Simon Cowell (@SimonCowell) July 23, 2020
He is most well known for creating and being a judge on TV shows such as American Idol, The X Factor and Britain’s Got Talent which has amassed him a large following of fans worldwide. Cowell also owns Syco, which is his own record label that he signed various winners from X Factor on to. His most popular creation he found through one of these shows was One Direction who shot to superstardom and then split up to have differing success in their solo careers.
Being a prominent figure throughout the years for his direct attitude and straight speaking persona, he has featured on multiple other TV shows and has become a star in his own right. He has in fact become so important in the entertainment world that he was featured in Time’s top 100 most influential people in the world twice in 2004 and 2010.
Seeing how important Cowell has become to the English, and arguably, the world’s entertainment industry it is clear to see how much different it will be without him. Without him, there would not have been any ‘Got Talent’ shows which have provided us with a lot of entertainment over the years, as well as the next generation of artists. He is not only a TV and music manager; he is groundbreaking in his own way.
