Abdul: 'Cowell would be a selfish lover'

Paula Abdul has poked fun at her American Idol colleague Simon Cowell, insisting that the acid-tongued judge would make a "selfish lover".

The 45-year-old maintained that she could never spend a night of passion with Cowell because she is too close to him.

When asked by Metro if there was any sexual chemistry between the pair, she said: "Oh God. He’s like a brother, so it would be some scary incest. The thought is terrible. I couldn’t be with him. He’d be a selfish lover - he’d wear his condoms ribbed on the inside."
