Ellen Degeneres' Big Gay Insult: Simon Cowell's a 'Prima Donna'
Simon Cowell has learned to a very important life lesson. Don't f**k with a lesbian! Ellen Degeneres was none too pleased with American Idol's co-creator and resident egomaniac Simon when he turned up 90 minutes late for their first day of shooting. Before Simon could dose Ellen's Coke cup with Valium to induce Paula Abdul-like results, Ellen was reportedly on the horn with Fox's alternative programming chief Mike Darnell telling him to "hurry up and pick" Simon's successor.
