In March 2019, former American Idol judge Simon Cowell spoke with Hollywood Life and revealed that he left the show due to its age limit. He implied the reality series is ageist, saying, “How can you say, ‘You can’t be a star [because of your age]’?”
He added, “And I found the word ‘Idol’ obnoxious to be honest with you. And why isn’t a 35-year-old as great as an 18-year-old? I just got to the point where this is not real, which is why I move on.”
