Simon Cowell mistaken of using gay sex drug 'poppers' by Amanda Holden

Simon Cowell has revealed that he was accused of using gay sex drug "poppers'' when he was actually sniffing salts which he uses to clear his head.

The 'X Factor' judge said that he sued those drugs when he gets headaches and he needed them for long days, the Daily Star reported.

Fellow judge Amanda Holden said that she asked Cowell if they were poppers.

The 54-year-old TV personality said that there was a guy who was staring him when he was using those drugs and then he joked that the guy must be thinking that he was taking poppers.
