Simon Cowell has splashed out a whopping $1million on a state-of-the-art security system for his new Beverly Hills mansion.
The American Idol judge, 49 — who moves into the plush $20million home this weekend — hired a firm used by Presidents and Nasa that specializes in fingerprint and retina scanners.
Cowell — who is said to be worth well over $200m — apparently decided to beef up his security after a fan committed suicide outside the LA home of fellow Idol judge Paula Abdul.
“Of course there have been threats against him because of his Mr Nasty image,” a source told Britain’s Daily Mail newspaper. “Simon decided that no expense would be spared.”
Cowell’s Hollywood home has six bedrooms, a cinema and a garage for eight cars.
