"  Simon Cowell made his singing debut on The X Factor USA last night (September 11). The 53-year-old was coaxed into showing off his own singing ability by his fellow judges during auditions in Denver. After Demi Lovato noted that one hopeful&amp;#039;s voice reminded her of Cowell&amp;#039;s, Kelly Rowland suggested Cowell sing it instead. &amp;quot;You would sound like what Simon sounds like when he&amp;#039;d sing,&amp;quot; Lovato said, before Rowland placed a mic in front of Cowell. A laughing Cowell then proceeded to sing a few lines of &amp;quot;Fools Rush In.&amp;quot; Speaking afterwards, Cowell said: &amp;quot;Can I just be clear, I didn&amp;#039;t sing, I impersonated a singer. That is not singing.&amp;quot; Lovato replied: &amp;quot;I think it&amp;#039;s charming, but he wants to be modest about his incredible vocal.&amp;quot; &amp;quot;I knew that voice was always there,&amp;quot; Rowland added. The X Factor USA&amp;#039;s third season debuted in the US on Fox last night, and will launch in the UK on Friday, September 20 at 8pm on ITV2.
