The much injected X Factor judge, Simon Cowell has admitted that Cheryl Cole’s natural facial expressions surprised him during this years auditions.

Cowell told Post magazine: “I’ve had Botox. But then again, pretty much everyone I know has, except Cheryl Cole.

“I got a shock when she was sitting next to me on the panel and she frowned and her forehead actually wrinkled. I thought: ‘Whoa! I haven’t seen that for a while. A real frown. That’s different’.”

He added: “To me, Botox is no more unusual than toothpaste. It works, you do it once a year – who cares?”
