X Factor boss Simon Cowell has allegedly asked show bosses to place hidden lighting underneath the table to make him look good on camera.

The entertainment mogul is said to have demanded additional lighting to ensure that viewers always see him at his best.

A source told a Sunday newspaper that Cowell is the only judge allowed to have the special lighting.

An insider told the Daily Star Sunday: "He thinks the strong stage lighting drowns him out and he wants special lighting on his face.

"The other judges aren't allowed it.

"He wants to shine and look the best at all times."

Cowell's brother Tony has said that Simon is "hilariously obsessed" with his image.

He is quoted as saying: "Simon has a lot of mirrors in his LA house.

"He can't walk more than six steps without passing a mirror and he glances in each one every single time he goes past."
