Simon Cowell Pulls Out of X-Factor Live Shows After Accident
Popular music critic and reality show judge, Simon Cowell has pulled out of X-Factor live shows after fainting and falling down the stairs.
The 58-year-old father of one, who was seen on a stretcher on Friday, talked about his poor state of health in The Sun.
He said the accident reminded him that he has a responsibility to take care of himself.
“Sometimes we get a reminder that we’re not invincible and this was certainly mine. It was a huge shock,” he said.
“They think I fainted because I had low blood pressure and so I have got to really take good care of myself to sort that out.
“Afterall, I am a dad and have more responsibility than ever.”
Popular singer Alesha Dixon would be replacing Simon on the X-Factor panel of judges for the duration he’ll be away.
