Simon Cowell's son Eric has an ear for talent

Simon Cowell says his three-year-old son Eric has an ear for talent.

The 57-year-old music mogul, who serves as a judge on "The X Factor" and "Britain's Got Talent," says his little one has already learned how to spot star potential, reported Contactmusic.

"(Eric) does enjoy coming down to auditions. The first time I brought him to 'Britain's Got Talent' he thought it was scary because of the big red Xs, but then after a few months I said, 'What does Daddy do when he goes to work?' and he said I pressed buttons - it's a little more than that!
 

"Now, he understands the show so I watch him and I'm like, 'Eric do you like it? Don't you like it?'. He's got a really good eye and ear for it, so yes, he's going to be doing this one day," Cowell says.
