Simon Cowell Knocking Down Jennifer Lopez’s Old Home

‘American Idol’ judge Simon Cowell purchased the home owned by Jennifer Lopez in Beverly Hills for $10.5 million, and The Mirror reports that the music guru is knocking the place down and spending $5 million building another one. “Simon knows what he wants and as soon as he saw J.Lo’s house, he had to have it,” a real-estate spy revealed. “But it would appear that even Jennifer Lopez’s plush pad simply wasn’t good enough. When it comes to houses, money is no object for Simon so he hasn’t batted an eyelid at spending an extra £3million knocking the place down and rebuilding from scratch. He has certain ideas on what he wants it to look like… and J.Lo’s minimalist approach wasn’t it.”
