Simon Cowell does not pull any punches. The lead judge on the spectacularly successful American Idol, Cowell is never at a loss for an opinion--or a cutting way to express it. BIOGRAPHY® reveals how these traits worked against him in school--where he was nicknamed "the Scowler" by one headmaster--and early in his career. And just as his attitude is no act, neither is his ear for talent. At EMI and, later, BMG, Cowell cultivated a string of new pop artists that filled company coffers.

Filled with clips from Simon's shows on both sides of the Atlantic, comments from costars and intimate glimpses from family members, this is a revealing portrait of a man who has made mean marketable.
