Simon Cowell gives family $162,000
You may think Simon Cowell is mean, but one thing's for sure: he's generous. The American Idol judge gave the family of a cancer-stricken 3-year-old $162,000 to pay off their mortgage, he announced on Oprah Winfrey’s Big Give show Monday. Says Cowell: “I never knew that doing good could feel so good."

That's awesome.

not a big fan of Simon, huh Lil'Smed?

That's nice, but he mainly did that as a write off, for attention, and he probably spends more on a weekend trip.

I'm not trying to tell people how to spend, but some of these people could do SO DAMN MUCH with a small chunk of their earnings.

Wow, so Simon DOES have a soft side. That's nice to see that he helped out that family in that way.
