Simon Cowell on treating Susan ‘horribly’ on BGT

Susan’s dramatic new look comes just days after Simon Cowell admitted he treated her “horribly” during her stint on BGT.

Simon admitted that he’d pre-judged Susan based on her appearance during her audition, something he has since come to regret.

Speaking on the Tales from the Celebrity Trenches podcast, Simon admitted he felt “disgusting” after judging her.

“I said, ‘We’re going to just tell it as it is.’ And they went, ‘You look awful.’ I said, ‘We are awful. All of us.’ I mean, that look Piers gives me. It’s just, I think of all the looks I’ve ever remembered, that might be the worst,” he said.

“And I was just as bad. We all were. And then, you know, thank God for her, it all worked out well. And, of course, I had the ability to cut all that stuff out, but it was a bit of a wakeup call. Which is, you can’t judge a book by its cover,” he then continued.

“We do look disgusting, but you got to hold your hands up at that moment. A lot of people are going to realise in about 24 hours that we’re just horrible. And so we’re going to say sorry. And that’s what we did.”
