Not so long ago, Simon Cowell was probably the most powerful man on American TV.Well, I'm sure he'll be busy with the new baby and all. Congratulations to the dude: "Simon Cowell crosses the Atlantic to welcome baby son Eric."
His cranky, caustic judging had helped make "American Idol" an invincible No. 1 hit. As a producer, he makes "America's Got Talent" and similar shows that have long been top sellers around the world. He ranked No. 17 on Forbes' 2013 Celebrity 100 list, with estimated annual pay of $95 million, and famously predicted that his own "The X Factor" on Fox would hammer "Idol," the singing contest he left in a storm of publicity in 2010.
