SIMON COWELL LAUGHING OFF DEATH GOSSIP

Simon Cowell


American Idol star Simon Cowell is laughing off rumors that he wants his body frozen after his death, insisting he was only joking. Simon told guests at a private dinner hosted by Britain's Prime Minister Gordon Brown earlier this year that he planned to have his body preserved in liquid nitrogen in the hope scientists can find a way to bring him back to life. He was quoted as saying, "I have decided to freeze myself when I die. You know, cryonics. You pay a lot of money and you get stuck in a deep freeze once you've been declared dead."Medical science is bound to work out a way of bringing us back to life in the next century or so, and I want to be available when they do. I would be doing the nation an invaluable service."But a spokesperson for Cowell says the claims were exaggerated and never meant to be taken seriously.
