Simon Cowell to celebrate Christmas on luxury yacht
International

London
(ANI):
Simon
Cowell
will
be
celebrating
Christmas
and
dishing
out
presents
to
pals
as
he
cruises
the
Caribbean
on
his
luxury
yacht.
Cowell"s
friend
Topshop
boss
Sir
Philip
Green
will
also
join
him
on
board
the
625,000pound-a-week
beauty,
called
“Slipstream".
The
duo
is
believed
to
discuss
their
new
venture
as
well
as
Cowell"s
new
plans
for
American
X
Factor.
The
12-berth
yacht
boasts
of
comfy
leather
sofas,
mirrors
above
a
giant
waterbed,
a
Jacuzzi,
Wi-Fi,
a
gym,
kayaks,
snorkelling
gear
and
jet
skis.
“Simon
wanted
a
change
of
scenery
rather
than
spend
another
Christmas
looking
at
Michael
Winner"s
gut
at
Sandy
Lane
for
dinner," the
Mirror
quoted
a
pal
as
saying.
The
pal
added:
“And
the
Slipstream
is
the
ultimate
super
yacht.
He
was
about
to
leave
Barbados
to
sail
to
Grenada
where
he
was
meeting
Sinitta
and
her
children
to
give
them
their
presents.
Then
he
is
off
to
Antigua
for
cocktails
with
Amanda
Holden
and
her
husband
Chris
Hughes.
And
then
Jacqui
St
Clair
is
planning
to
meet
up
with
him
when
he
hits
St
Barts."
The
insider
added;
“Simon
hates
winters
in
England
and
has
been
looking
forward
to
this
trip
for
months.
He
chose
this
yacht
because
of
the
high
spec.
It
oozes
luxury
–
as
soon
as
he
docks
the
three-storey
beast,
people
will
be
impressed.
He
could
have
gone
for
something
more
discreet,
but
that
isn"t
Simon"s
style.
He
turned
50
this
year
and
decided
it
would
be
his
Christmas
treat
to
himself."
