‘I look in the mirror and think I look good!’ Simon Cowell, 63, claims he’s ‘ageing quite well’ in resurfaced clip from 2007 – years before shocking fans with radically different features

Simon Cowell claimed he was ‘ageing quite well’ and ‘looked good’ in a resurfaced clip from a 2007 Top Gear appearance.

The music mogul, 63, who was 48 at the time, went on to poke fun at host Jeremy Clarkson, 62, for ‘needing’ a facelift and Botox.

In recent times, however, he’s sparked concern with his radically different facial features, looking unrecognisable notably in a Britain’s Got Talent promo.

During a sit-down chat on the BBC motoring programme, his remarks came when the presenter asked if he could be hired as a judge on The X Factor.

Simon replied: ‘Shall I tell you why you couldn’t? Because I am ageing quite well and you’re not.

‘I thought about you the other day, I was reading one of your reviews about a Jaguar and how Jaguars have to update themselves over the years and you are the equivalent of a Jaguar who needs help.’

He continued, ‘In other words, you know how you do a facelift on the new Jag?’ to which Jeremy exclaimed, ‘Oh I can’t do a facelift!’

Holy moly! In recent times, however, he’s sparked concern with his radically different facial features , looking unrecognisable notably in a Britain’s Got Talent promo

Simon replied, ‘No, you do! You need Botox, you need a facelift. Just have half an eye done.’

Trying to shrug off the comments with self-deprecation, Jeremy joked, ‘I look in the mirror and go, “Yeah, I know I’m falling to pieces but I don’t care.”‘

Simon argued, ‘No, I don’t think that. I think I look good,’ to which Jeremy agreed, ‘You do look good,’ and Simon continued, ‘No, I know I do and we’re the same age!’

When Jeremy maintained his stance, saying, ‘I don’t care,’ a flabbergasted Simon contested, ‘You must do.’

At this point, the broadcaster asked the audience, ‘Should I care? Should I care about it?’ to which they replied, “No.”

And with that, Simon concluded, ‘That’s why you couldn’t come on my show.’

In more recent times, the record label boss sparked concern with his ‘unrecognisable’ appearance at the Royal Variety Performance, which was filmed on December 2 and aired on ITV later that month.

As Simon was introducing BGT winner Axel Blake, he left TV viewers distracted by his incredibly smooth visage, that may be the result of cosmetic surgery, with one asking: ‘What’s he done to himself?’.

The record producer had previously sparked concern by his appearance and, taking to Twitter, one viewer wrote: ‘Just saw Simon Cowell on the Royal Variety show, what has he done to himself?.’

While another added: ‘WTF have you done to your face lad?’ and a third added: ‘Simon Cowell needs to stop having facelifts!’

Agreeing, a fourth commented: ‘Flicked over during halftime of the football and was that Simon Cowell of George Michael ordered from Wish on stage’.

Another said: ‘Simon Cowell’s had a “little work” done’ and on more joked: ‘What on earth happened to Simon Cowell?’.

He previously sparked concern from fans in a promo video shared to social media on earlier last month.

The TV mogul looked unrecognisable as he sported an incredibly smooth complexion, bright white teeth and enhanced features.

Simon recently revealed that he took his love of Botox too far , with his final treatment leaving him looking like ‘something out of a horror show’.

According to The Sun, the talent show boss said he decided to stop when his strange appearance left son Eric, eight, in hysterics.

The former X Factor judge, who shares his son with partner Lauren Silverman, 44, revealed that as a result he no longer has any filler in his face.

The many, many, many faces of Simon Cowell: As straight-talking X Factor judge leaves fans bemused with his radically different features, MailOnline looks back at his ever-varying visage 

By Jason Chester For MailOnline

Not much has changed about The X Factor and Britain’s Got Talent over the years; the usual mixture of hopeful contestants, straight-talking judges and tear-jerking backstories combined with the heady promise of potential fame and fortune has earned these failsafe formats millions of viewers – and a near permanent air of predictability. 

If only the same could be said of their creator. 

An otherwise straightforward appearance at this year’s pre-recorded Royal Variety performance on December 2 prompted more unwanted questions than answers, with many viewers left addressing the elephant Simon Cowell had inadvertently let into the room – namely, his radically different features.

The music mogul, now 63, surprised those in attendance – and those watching – with a remarkably smooth visage as he introduced Britain’s Got Talent Winner Axel Blake at London’s Royal Albert Hall.

More quizzical eyebrows were raised just days later, when Cowell’s face was curiously obscured by shadow as he eulogised about eight-year old son Eric during a remote appearance on ITV chat show Loose Women. 

Once again, fans were prompted to question his vastly different visage – has he really changed? Or is it just our imagination?  

Fear not, MailOnline has the answer. Join us as we cast a cautiously chronological look back at the many, many faces of Simon Cowell.
