Cowell is 'Simpsons Idol'
11 April 2012
This is Simon Cowell as he appears in his cameo role in The Simpsons. The Pop Idol judge is shown in his trademark short-sleeved T-shirt and high-waisted trousers.
He plays a nursery school admissions officer who makes cruel comments about the Simpsons' youngest child, Maggie, when she flops at an audition.
He then proceeds to tell Homer: 'You have the talent of a dolphin.' Naturally, Homer takes this as a compliment. 'It's the best thing I've ever been asked to do,' Cowell said afterwards.
The episode airs in the US on Sunday.
