Hot or not?

by Ellie on January 8, 2010

It’s back!

After a short Christmas and New Year break your favourite Friday feature has returned!

What will 2010 bring?

Last time Johnny Depp (swooning just writing his name) was hot, but not resoundingly so, which was something of a surprise to me.

This weeks specimen is probably one of the most famous faces on the planet and is certainly a vote splitter. I suspect his bank balance, power and influence may be a large part of his attraction.

As suggested by the fabulous Rosie Scribble, have you guessed yet?

Simon Cowell, hot or not?

 

As far as world presence goes this man has been hot for years and with the new season of American Idol about to hit our screens (on ITV2) his dominance is showing no signs of waning.

 

The noughties were without a doubt Simon Cowell’s decade!

 

Would I invite him to dinner? Yes. I’m sure he’d be a very very interesting guest but I’ll leave the fawning to the wannabes.

 

It’s not my call. You decide…..

Ooh, I've missed HoN! Um. While I find his hair deeply strange and his skin tone a bit too orange, I have confess that I am coming down more on the side of hot than not. Oh dear.

100% NOT!

Oh No! Now the blame lies solely at my door! No, he isn't hot but I did think he was quite nice at times during X factor. Now shout me down!!

It's a joke? Oh, ok then. Absolutely and categorically not at all hot. Imagine waking up and watching him doing whatever weird flattening thing he does to his hair. And having him commenting on your cooking, 'That was the Chernobyl of chicken pies' etc. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

in rosiescribble defence, he is soo not in the pic, but sometimes maybe a little in x factor. Its a power confidence thing i think, hot…maybe…but i wouldn't if you know what i mean!

He so shouldn't be hot but somehow is. A little bit. In the right light.

He's staring at me.

Yikes!

Disgusting. In a word.

Not even luke warm. I'm fascinated by the way the top half of his face doesn't move anymore – he has been botoxed to within an inch of his life. And that square haircut? Nooooooooooo.

Sometimes mean is hot (House, for example) but in Simon's case, it's a definite not!

Ok, sorry, not sure where you dug this specimen up from, but the answer is definitely……………….NOT!!!!!!

18 Emily O January 8, 2010 at 4:26 pm

Absolutely not. Although I admire him because even though he's unbelievably wealthy he still has a dodgy haircut and wears shapeless t-shirts. Good on him.

His pearly white teeth are blinding me!

22 Geriatric Mummy January 8, 2010 at 4:54 pm

I used to think he was on the warm side until I heard that he smokes 40 a day with which he suddenly became rather chilly. Why would someone so rich and powerful not be able to kick the habit ? Not an attractive personality trait. Sorry.

No! Slimeball, for sure. Although he does have charisma…..

This is my first visit to Hot or Not and I am scared. Very scared.

Not!

25 Kelloggsville January 8, 2010 at 5:40 pm

Hot – I know it's very very wrong thinking he's hot, it's a bit like eating donuts after everyone else is in bed!!! It must be the power and the money, I reckon the sex would be good – I'm not here to ascertain whether he would make a good life long mate – right?!!!

Oh noes, I am mortified now. Who'd have thought I'd be the only one?!

27 Pippa January 8, 2010 at 6:07 pm

Now you have got me here, because in that photo No! But there was a photo in a tabloid at some point in the last year, where I was rather impressed with Mr Cowell… and you know that thing about the size of a mans feet and how it relates to the size of his "Shoes" well thats all I'll say about that. But I think I shall still say Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

Unless he is reading this in which case yesssssssssssssss!

sorry, need a minute to calm down.

God that was funny.

Simon Cowell: NOT.

33 Mamma Po January 8, 2010 at 8:51 pm

I think he's totally unattractive to look at but…..there's that Power thing. And I do think he'd oh so interesting to chat to. I wouldn't say no to having a drink and a gossip with him. Even if he did inevitably criticise everything I and surrounding company did, wore, said.

Still giggling…

NOT. Sorry Simon.

37 laxmummy January 8, 2010 at 11:07 pm

Not. But as with many very rich/influential men he has a certain something.

Reply

38 Lucy Quick January 8, 2010 at 11:19 pm

Ha! I used to date a guy who was a little Simon Cowell-esque… But he wasn't very wealthy… or powerful… or charismatic.

Perhaps unsurprisingly it didn't work out.

Hot or not? Not :)

39 MrsW January 8, 2010 at 11:31 pm

I know it's wrong and he shouldn't be hot … but he's just sooooo hairy… it curls out the top of his t-shirt and peeps out of his cuffs…. and I know anyone under 40 is probably thinking EEEEWW but I'm from the Sean Connery Bond generation and hairy men… oooh yes.

If he'd just sort out the hair on his flippin' HEAD.

Am I odd if I say, maybe? A little bit? I think it must be the power aspect!

I don't know what it is actually! I might just keep it to myself!!

Well oddly enough he's supposed to be a really nice guy, so for that alone it's a possible. To look at, though, it's a definite no no no.
