Simon Cowell has recently been involved in some controversy on America’s Got Talent. He recently had a spat with Howie Mandel concerning the golden buzzer and almost aggressively touched the known germophobe. Now, it seems some problems are arising between him and Heidi Klum, with both throwing shade at each other.
Here is what has happened recently between Simon Cowell and Heidi Klum that makes it look like there are problems on America’s Got Talent.
Simon Cowell Throws Shade At Heidi Klum On AGT
Simon Cowell has never been one to hold his tongue. However, recently, he has been a little more outspoken on America’s Got Talent. It started when he demanded a second golden buzzer and got that pushed through. Then, there was the Howie Mandel moment, when Howie said he was going to HR about it.
Now, Simon has had some unkind things to say about Heidi Klum. It appears that Simon doesn’t like how Heidi judges the talent on AGT. While Simon is much kinder than he was during his American Idol days, he still reveals his honest opinions about performances he doesn’t like.
He recently called out Heidi Klum for not doing the same. It seems that he feels she is too nice. “You can’t just tell everyone they’re good if you don’t feel it,” Simon said concerning Heidi. Out of all the judges, Heidi seems to enjoy a wide range of performances and is always there to give people kind words after they perform.
However, Simon seems to feel Heidi is just being nice to everyone and isn’t honest when she doesn’t like something.
Heidi Klum & Howie Mandel Have A Closer AGT Connection
Heidi Klum and Howie Mandel have developed a closer relationship lately as co-judges. It might be their shared frustration with Simon Cowell. The two even shared a little moment where they threw shade at Simon.
According to Heidi, she says Simon didn’t invite her to the “private mentoring sessions” he held during America’s Got Talent: Fantasy League. Howie said he wasn’t invited either, and added, “Simon’s mentoring is like playdates because everybody had to go to his house to get mentoring.”
In addition, Heidi also threw some shade at Simon’s performance on the show. Simon was asked to participate in Shadow Ace’s performance, but when he sat by the screen to cast a shadow, he was completely still and didn’t help out with the act.
“Simon could have opened his mouth as Shadow Ace pretended to brush his teeth,” Heidi said, criticizing Simon and not Shadow Ace. Simon said he couldn’t believe he was “criticized for Shadow Ace’s performance.”
