Simon Cowell Turned Down 'Insulting' Offer to Be Viagra Spokesman

Monday, March 03, 2008

"American Idol" judge Simon Cowell turned down a $2 million offer to be the spokesman for Viagra, calling it a "f---ing insult" in the British edition of Glamour magazine.

"Last year my agent rang me and said, 'You've been offered an incredibly big deal. It's to be the face of Viagra,'" Cowell said in the interview. "I just said, 'Sorry, but that has to be a f---ing insult.'"

Cowell, who is 48, does admit in the magazine to using Botox, calling it "no more unusual than toothpaste," and to wearing platform shoes to appear taller

He also says he put off marrying girlfriend Terri Seymour without a pre-nuptial agreement.
