Default Simon Cowell ambition of winning an oscar as his 60th Birthday approaches



As the brains behind hit shows The X Factor and Britain’s Got Talent, Simon Cowell has long since conquered the small screen.

And now, as he approaches his 60th birthday, he is determined to shake up his career – and improve the longevity of his ‘brand’ – by aiming for success in Hollywood.

Sources say he is ‘focusing on films’ following the recent successes of music-based biopics such as Rocketman, and hopes to bag himself an Academy Award.

‘Simon has talked openly about wanting to win an Oscar,’ a source said. ‘He’s looking at music-related film projects because they are all the rage now after the success of Bohemian Rhapsody and the Elton John biopic.’

And the man who knows a thing or two about the powers of transformation – having turned dowdy Scottish singer Susan Boyle into a global sensation and masterminded the creation of boyband One Direction from five gangly teenagers – is working his magic a bit closer to home these days.

The 59-year-old music mogul, known for his unashamedly middle-aged physique and commitment to high-waisted jeans, cut a different figure when he appeared at the first day of auditions for Britain’s Got Talent last week.

The astonishing 20 lb weight loss is the result of a new commitment to healthy living and a practically vegan diet which involves cutting out meat, dairy, sugar and gluten.

Even the beer in his hand was low-alcohol and low-carb, and just 89 calories a bottle.

‘Simon is a new man,’ said a friend who saw him recently in Los Angeles. ‘The weight loss is staggering, his teeth look whiter than ever and he’s bouncing around with more energy than normal.

‘It’s remarkable how much he’s changed in such a relatively short time. His 60th birthday is coming up in October and he’s determined to be in the best shape of his life.

‘Having Eric has changed his outlook. He wants to be around to see his son grow up.’

Cowell has said he feels ‘re-energised’ by his dramatic weight loss.

He told ex-girlfriend Terri Seymour – who works for US TV show Extra – that he went to see a ‘very well-known’ specialist doctor who radically altered his diet after a series of blood tests.

‘And I did it and I stuck to it and it’s easy,’ Cowell said.

The star was inspired to change his lifestyle after he was taken to hospital in October 2017 following a fall down the stairs at his London home. He said he fainted because of low blood pressure, and it had been a ‘wake-up call’ for his health. But it was only last year that he began to think seriously about his diet, and initially consulted cosmetic specialist Dr Jean-Louis Sebagh.

Quote:
He now has three or four films on the go, including one inspired by the Sixties band The Monkees. A source said: ‘It’s based on all the experiences Simon has had creating and working with huge boybands. It is a live-action hybrid, which means there are real actors but parts of the movie are animated.’ Simon is collaborating on the film with producers Animal Logic, who are behind the hit movies Happy Feet and Peter Rabbit.
