Simon Cowell’s hour-long interview with Piers Morgan finally aired on CNN Tuesday night. There have been so many interviews since Simon initially sat down with Piers last month, there isn’t much new to report. Simon does say there will be 2 Americans hosting X Factor. But knowing Simon, the game plan could be completely different by now.
Piers and Simon make no attempt to hide their good ole British-boy friendship. There’s lots of insidery-winking and sarcastic repartee between the two. I have to say, I’ve never seen Simon so relaxed in an interview.
Check out the ENTIRE interview in 6 parts, after the jump.
