Simon Cowell is sorry he allowed Susan Boyle's appearance to influence his opinion of her.

‘I judged her by the way she looked and the way she walked on stage,’ Simon, 49, tells US chat show host Ellen DeGeneres.

‘And I was made to look very, very stupid. So if you’re watching [Susan], I apologise.’

The Britain's Got Talent singer, 48, has since had a makeover after being dubbed the Hairy Angel by the tabloids.
