Simon Cowell just admitted that he had gone a little too far with the facial fillers and Botox, before sensationally revealing that he had stopped for good after realizing that he looked, to use his words, “unrecognizable” and “like something out of a “horror film.” Wow!
As a result of ditching the Botox and filler for good, the 62-year-old America’s Got Talent judge therefore looked a little bit different at the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards in Santa Monica, California on Saturday, April 9th. And the changes to the music mogul’s appearance were even more obvious when he took to the stage with his fellow AGT judges Heidi Klum, 48, Sofia Vergara, 49, Howie Mandel, 66, and host Terry Crews, 53, to accept their award for the show, as well as in some of the backstage photos of them.

So what made Cowell decide to stop with the fillers and Botox? “There was a stage where I might have gone a bit too far. I saw a picture of me from ‘before’ the other day, and didn’t recognize it as me first of all,” the former X Factor judge told The Sun, before revealing that his eight-year-old son’s reaction to his treatments is part of what prompted him to stop. “Eric was in hysterics. Enough was enough. There is no filler in my face at all now. Zero.”
After reiterating that he did indeed have “too much” Botox once upon a time, Cowell went on to say that he still takes care of his appearance, but goes for more natural treatments now. “I probably did have a little too much Botox a couple of years ago, because everyone on TV has it. Now I have facials, but nothing too extravagant at the moment.”
