Simon Cowell Wants Sculpture Like Britney Spears  4/1/06

American Idol judge Simon Cowell is such a huge fan of a sculpture depicting a pregnant Britney Spears, he is commissioning the same artist to create a statue of him.

Cowell saw the story about the sculpture on an entertainment news show hosted by American Idol host Ryan Seacrest and called him to find out how to reach the artist.

Seacrest explains, "Simon called and said, 'Do you have the contact for the person who did the sculpture? I want one of me in my courtyard.'

"This is how vain the man is. He wants to put a sculpture of himself in his courtyard at his house. For what? To worship?"
