AGT 2024: Talented prodigy with World-Class Performance SHOCKS JUDGES and Leaves Audience Stunned
Simon Cowell was joined by a very special guest at a recent taping of America’s Got Talent.
On Tuesday, Sept. 3, the judge, 64, was photographed with his 10-year-old son Eric and his fiancée Lauren Silverman, 47, as the family of three walked the red carpet ahead of the live taping of the quarterfinals of AGT.
Cowell could be seen standing behind his son, putting his hands on his shoulders as the two smiled together. The proud dad opted for a gray T-shirt and jeans, while his son wore a white T-shirt and jeans. Silverman held her son’s arm and posed in a leopard-print jacket and black pants.
The father-son duo also posed for a sweet solo shot together, where Cowell put his arms around his son and held his sunglasses.

Back in June, Cowell opened up about how his son Eric saved him after both of his parents died.
Speaking on an episode of The Diary Of A CEO podcast released on June 10, Cowell shared how his son saved him during a dark period amid the loss of his parents, Julie and Eric, and his life being consumed by work. Cowell’s father Eric, whom his son was named after, died in 1999, while his mother Julie died 16 years later.
“I think particularly when I lost my mum, I was on a downward spiral at that point,” said the music industry executive. “I lost everyone, you know, I’ve lost my parents. It’s finality now. What I said about the material things I’ve got, everything just meant nothing at that point.”
But the TV personality said when he heard that his fiancé, whom he has been dating since 2004, was pregnant with their first child, it turned everything around.
Simone Biles responded to critics about her hair just hours before winning her 8th Olympic medal.
Even though Simone Biles is the most decorated U.S. Olympic gymnast with over 35 medals and the Presidential Medal of Freedom, some people still criticize her.
One person complained, “Simone Biles’ hair never looks right. Everyone else on the team looks put together, but she looks like she just rolled out of bed.”
Before the women’s gymnastics team finals, Simone Biles, 27, shared a message for her critics on her Instagram Story.
“Don’t comment on my hair,” Simone Biles wrote in a video she posted. “It was done, but the bus had no AC and it was super hot. Plus, the ride was 45 minutes.”
In another Instagram Story, she shared a selfie and said, “Gonna hold your hand when I say this

Many women usually wear their hair in a slicked-back ponytail or bun, but Simone Biles has been wearing a looser style.
The rules say USA gymnasts must be “well groomed” and keep their hair “secured away from the face” so it doesn’t block their view of the equipment.
Despite the rules, many people on social media have criticized Simone Biles’ hairstyle.
Comments include:
“Simone Biles’s hair stylist should be fired.”
“Did Simone Biles purposely not do her hair? Every other gymnast’s hair is neatly done, but hers is messy. It almost seems on purpose… wtf?”
“I know Simone Biles talked about hair comments in her documentary, but she needs someone else to do her hair, not just her mom.”
“Simone Biles is flawless, but her hair isn’t.”
I don’t see anything wrong with Simone’s hair. She’s following the rules, so she should be able to wear it however she wants. People need to leave her alone!
