Simon Cowell 'sick With Envy' Over Dancing With The Stars' Success.... American Idol judge Simon Cowell confesses he is jealous of friends who taste success - but insists it is healthy to be competitive.
The music mogul also admits he is 'sick with envy' he wasn't the brainchild behind hit U.S. TV show Dancing with the Stars, and secretly wanted the programme to flop.
He says, "If someone I know is doing better than me I get incredibly miserable.
"A lot of my friends are extremely wealthy, but I'm not envious of their money, however, I'm never pleased if they have a hit show. I don't go to bed thinking, 'I'm really happy their show is doing so well'. It annoys me that it wasn't my idea.
"When I watch Dancing with the Stars in America it makes me sick with envy because I didn't think if the idea myself. But that's how it should be - when you lose your competitive edge, you're over."
Meanwhile its been revealed that the music mogul follows a superstitious ritual before appearing on TV - he "worships" his hair-dryer, according to his co-star.
Cowell's pre-show ritual was exposed by his Britain's Got Talent co-judge Amanda Holden.
