This is Simon Cowell as he appears in his cameo role in The Simpsons. The Pop Idol judge is shown in his trademark short-sleeved T-shirt and high-waisted trousers.

He plays a nursery school admissions officer who makes cruel comments about the Simpsons' youngest child, Maggie, when she flops at an audition.

The episode airs in the US on Sunday.
