Simon Cowell spent the better part of this afternoon rambling on twitter from 35,000 feet in the air, as he flew from London to Los Angeles for next week’s X Factor premiere.

Not only did we get a play by play of his afternoon tea (“a cup of tea and a crunchie…delicious!), we also know he thinks the movie, Mr. Poppers Penguins is BRILLIANT. But damn…I wanted to know if he enjoyed Garfield 2!  And yes, he’s still really really really REALLY mad at NBC!

Oh, and he couldn’t get his bud, Ryan Seacrest, front row tickets to the X Factor premiere at the Grauman’s Chinese Theater  (or Chinese Man theater as he calls it!) in LA on Monday?  Some friend!

If the Gods are on our side, now that Simon has “gotten the hang of twitter” he’ll be as hilarious a tweeter at his “pal” Nigel Lythgoe.

Check out a new promo from X Factor, featuring “the brat” Demi Lovato!

    LOL, saw this today as he was doing it. I too thought he had been hacked, but just seem like he spiked his tea. Drunky Simon is fun Simon. Loves it. <3

    The mouse who eats the frog will swallow the mosquito? LOL Hahahah WTF?
    Oh man, Simon is hilarious with these tweets. He should drunk tweet more often.

    Life would be good if we could see Blake Shelton and Simon drunk and tweeting to each other at the same time…

    Can’t Simon just buy American Idol and be the judge over there again. He made judging interesting.

    I love how Simon twisted Grauman’s Chinese Theater into “Chinese man theater.”

  • fantoo1

    No thanks lol. After he left I realized how manipulating he really was.

  • iluvai

    I like Simon.  awww…. :(

    I’m wondering,how can they put a mic on the contestants who were still outside the audition?? Are they a plant?? Or everyone who auditions got a mic on their clothes to catch their conversation???

     ”Life would be good if we could see Blake Shelton and Simon drunk and tweeting to each other at the same time…”

    Throw in Nigel and that would be more entertaining than the shows that these guys are involved with. lol

  • Incipit

    Oh Rly, Cowell? Doin’ the Drunken Uncle? All he’s missing is the wedding. *snerk*

  • fuzzywuzzy

    I LOVE how Demi doesn’t seem at all afraid or intimidated to stand up to Simon. I think that now, I’m more looking forward to her as a judge than Britney.

  • fuzzywuzzy

    lol I think that it’s the combination of alcohol and the reduced cabin pressure that’s affecting Simon most. Like drinking at a high altitude.

  • Incipit

    Heh. No doubt, fuzzywuzzy. Cowell is certainly old enough to know that happens – if he cared, he would Step Away From the Tweets – so I feel perfectly justified to point and *snerk*. IMO.

    I don’t know Demi Lovato from a hole in the ground but that promo video piqued my interest. And I am in need of some tough judging.

    Damn! I can’t wait to see this show.

  • Jordana33

    That was hilarious, although Simon “drunk” tweeting for 6 hours sounds like an attempt at publicity. It doesn’t matter. I’ll still be watching X Factor!

    This backstage video of Simon interrogating Demi about dating Niall from One Direction is really funny!!

    Probably a stunt but this is the 1st time I’ve found Simon entertaining since, gosh, I don’t even remember. Probably since the time he was gaping at Fantasia during her performance of Bore Me. Thanks for posting MJ!

  • fuzzywuzzy

    lol Oh yeah, I have a feeling that Simon is way too much of a control freak (even “tipsy” – Who TF uses that word any more? lol ) to really do something like this without knowing what he’s doing.

  • http://twitter.com/cindydesigns Cindy Moniz

    Hahaha, makes me think about actually following Simon! ;D

  • http://twitter.com/1outside Maj

    I don’t even know the girl very well (apart from she’s young and a singer..?) but I’m actually gonna give US XF a chance this year only because of her. She seems really fun.

  • http://twitter.com/LexieONeill Lexie O’Neill

    I don’t know that I’m tempted enough to watch XF, but I will say my teen daughter and I watched Demi when she was the star of Sonny With A Chance and I felt her to be a budding comic genius.  She was remarkable.  That show stinks without her (it’s now called So Random and don’t bother to watch if you.

    I’m glad to know she’s making such a great comeback since she needed her break…

    Laughing so hard because it is indeed, hilarious!

     ”Currently flying over the middle of America. And very happy thank you.”

    —————————————-

    ‘Fly Over States’ is a tongue-in-cheek phrase used by the elite
    dismissing the states between the two coasts they see out their First
    class windows as they fly from one coast to the other. The term
    essentially describes the heartland of America, especially the states of
    the Great Plains and the Rockies.

    —————————————-

    I don’t think he would be too happy if the “middle of America” didn’t watch “X-Factor.”
