Cupcake money makes the world go round, and sometimes it spins so fast certain ladies pants fall off.

I never thought much of Cowell anyway

But Danni ... shocked !!

Cowells sexuality is being questioned, next thing we know this story is doing the rounds. I dont believe a word of it .

a lot of girls and Louis Walsh do though. Que sara sara (sp?)

Surely some mistake.

This thread reminds me of that episode of 'Mrs Merton' when she put the following question to Debbie McGee:

'So, Debbie, can I ask what first attracted you to the millionaire Paul Daniels?'

Does it?

It reminds me of the weekly newspaper articles describing Ronaldo swiving with at least five different women every night.

funny how this all comes out just when BGT is being trashed in the ratings by The Voice   cynical? Moi?  never 

THAT really was brilliant comedy.  Along with Mrs Merton and Chris Eubank.

Hahaha - I thought exactly the same

That was my first thought too Pengy! He has no shame....I hope he forewarned Dannii this story was coming out esp after her recent relationship breakdown.

He was single, she was single, they had a few rolls in the hay, so what

I agree. I think he's in the closet and these spin stories  are "put out there" to throw peeps off the scent. Not that him being gay would make the slightest bit of difference.

Not quite the same thing, though, is it? Dannii Minogue was already famous and not exactly short of a bob or two.

Also, the way this is being described by the press as an "affair" seems intentionally misleading, as - in this sort of context - "affair" generally implies at least one of them cheating on a partner. The truth is that they were both single at the time.

I agree with others on here that the timing and portrayal of this all seems rather suspicious...

"Simon Cowell's alleged affair with Dannii Minogue happened in 2007 shortly after he split with his long-term girlfriend, Terri Seymour and before the singer met Kris Smith."

So how is this an affair?

Because calling it that makes it more newsworthy. 

Technically, the term "love-affair" can apply to any romantic relationship, but I agree: nowadays, the term usually implies someone's being cheated-on, and that's not the case here...

 shouldn't it be *panties* 

This one word may sound hard and thoughtless, and I am not in anyway denying anybody's right to be interested....but I am going to type it anyway...

And?

If i was a woman I wouldn't let Cowell with his smug grin, superior attitude, hairy chest and slimy charm anywhere near me

Can you imagine his fleshy man boobs rubbing up against you??

Yuk !!!

I thought so

I don't like him and personally don't care who or how many he sleeps with as it doesn't affect my life in any way. I also don't care whether he's gay or straight, that's his call whatever it is just like everyone else's preference. Oh his one good point (for me) is he loves dogs so being an animal lover he scores brownie points on that

I'm with you on that. I really couldn't care less.

So was Hitler LOL

What, an animal lover

Yes - didn't you know - he was vegetarian and loved his German Shepherds

No I didn't lol. I'll be more wary from now on about those who say they're vegetarians and animal lovers           

Hang on a minute !!! So am I

Oh thanks Renton - that image is gonna stay with me now

Ha ha ha  - just trying to protect you delicate ladies out there LOL

If its true I bet shes dying of embarrassment that its out there now shameful.

If the opportunity was there and we were both single I'd sleep with him. There's something incredibly sexy about a confident powerful man

There's a big difference between sleeping with someone and having sex with 'em though.

Caroline Aherne also did a little sitcom 'Mrs Merton and Malcolm' which I found funny, too.  It wasn't on for long (one series?) and I think Craig Cash played her son, Malcolm, in it

LOL, nice one Cinds!  

Just me Cagney, but I don't agree.  I'm not attracted to power and money.  And don't find a man who is rich and powerful 'sexy.'  That's just me though.
