Life isn’t as perfect as it seems for renowned music mogul Simon Cowell. The man may be able to say whatever the hell he wants, but it seems that he certainly can’t eat what he wants. Or at least he hasn’t been able to since he turned 40.

Speaking at the London book launch of ‘Michael Winner’s Fat Pig Diet’ on Wednesday night, Simon said: “Once you get to 40, you really have to be careful about what you eat. Biscuits, cakes and chocolate are definitely off the menu.”

Ohhhhh don’t think I want to turn 40 then…..what would I do without a Twix with my nightly cuppa?
