Although yesterday I reported American Idol’s Simon Cowell was engaged to Mezhgan Hussainy, I also said I didn’t believe it. Here he is out for a stroll (because Simon does that all the time, right?) with his non-fiancee, but maybe fiancee in Beverly Hills.
She really is quite a looker isn’t she? And that house is pretty awesome looking too. The pictures indicate it’s in Simon’s neighbourhood so I’m not sure if it’s his house or not. Sorry stalker people. I wish I could be more definitive on that.
Yesterday his publicist came out and said Simon wasn’t engaged:
“I spoke to Simon in London, just before he took his flight back to Los Angeles. I asked him, ‘Look, are you engaged? Is it true?’ and he said, ‘No! No. I’m not engaged.’
However, Simon’s mom may have let the cat out of the bag:
“I’m shocked. I was the first person he called to say he was getting engaged.
“He’s very contented with her. She’s a lovely woman and I’m delighted she’s so happy. I thought I would have departed from this world before Simon got married. I’m so happy he’s committed to this girl.”
I still don’t believe he’s engaged. I believe he’s involved with Meg and is happy (can you blame him?) but at this stage in his life it seems odd that he would want to settle down if he hasn’t already.
So why do I bother with this post you ask? It’s a very slow news day. :)
