Popular celebrity, Simon Cowell has come out to recall his wild behaviour when he was a pre-teen.

He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, he was already smoking and drinking from the age of eight, and he even got arrested for hijacking a bus at age 12.

Simon added that he actually got up to a lot of mischief in his childhood due to having a low boredom threshold and not being academic.

His words, “I thought it wouldn’t be taken seriously, but the driver called the police and I was arrested. I remember going back home and my mum being furious.”

“But I was so bad, slightly living on the edge.”

WOW.
