Simon Cowell Dreams Of A Barbados Christmas

Simon Cowell is spotted jetskiing and hanging out with British billionaire Philip Green while on vacation in Barbados for Christmas.

“She would, literally, be first on the list as far as I’m concerned in any capacity,” Cowell said of wanting Britney Spears on this year’s season of American Idol. “I would love to see her mentor the contestants, but if she doesn’t want to do that, and she wants to come on the show and perform, I would welcome her anytime.”

Cowell told MTV that when Britney came on the UK’s X-Factor, “The buzz we had on our show when she came on was extraordinary. And even with all the stuff that’s gone on with her the past two years, there was more excitement and interest in her than I’ve seen in anyone in years. She would be very, very welcome.”
