Re: Simon Cowell.
I agree, he does look odd.
News said he has been on a strict diet and reckons he has shed loads of weight and feels a lot better for it, too.
I don't agree his face looks 'taut', I think the opposite, and if it wasn't for his stubble, you'd see his face is baggier and has sagged. That's what happens with a lot of weight loss. Having said that, don't we all change with age? No one looks as they did 20 years ago, so fair's fair.
There are however, two things which look a bit scary to me.
One is his 'hooded' eyes, and the other is that smile. His eyes and his smile look most peculiar. Whether it is just excessive dental work, or he has had some sort of surgery around his mouth, but it looks all wrong to me.
I believe he has done a lot for many charities (and individuals) for years.
Odd though he has become facially, I think having his son has been good for him and made him 'softer' and not quite so self-absorbed as he used to be.
I imagine he would be a good friend, but a bad enemy.
