The music mogul admitted that he was unhappy about Sharon's appearance on The Graham Norton Show, which saw her claiming that her fellow X Factor judge had only been hired for her looks. She then pointed to her backside and collapsed with laughter when asked what Minogue looked like.
"You see a grown-up Sharon behaving like this in public. I think it's wrong," Cowell told the Sunday Mirror. "Certain things should be done behind closed doors - the limelight shouldn't be taken from the contestants. I wish Sharon would ask my advice before she does things instead of trying to deal with it herself."
"Sharon would be the first to admit that we've had a turbulent relationship over the last three or four years, but I've got to know her a lot better this year," he added.
Simon also insisted that Dannii has more than enough experience to justify her position as a judge on the talent series.
"I was intrigued as to whether or not she could do the job," he admitted. "She's done a ton of songs, movies, Grease and Home and Away. That's exactly the sort of experience you need to be a judge. And she's worked harder with the artists than anyone else. She did 20-hour days."
Asked if all of the judges will be back next year, Cowell replied: "A hundred per cent - if they can get on."
