Simon Cowell bans his long-term girlfriend from talking to him at certain times of day, so he can relax properly. The music mogul and American Idol judge keeps a strict routine and has rules about when he can receive calls and questions from Terri Seymour.

He says, "I have a strict routine. I won't take calls an hour before bed. And Terri knows there are no questions after 11:30 p.m. Seriously don't even ask me the time. There are no rules except when to stop talking. If I've had a really long day, and I'm just beginning to relax, when someone says, 'What else happened today?' I have to say, 'I'm sorry you just have to shut up.' And it's the same in the morning. I read the papers, have breakfast in bed, have a bath, and I won't take calls."
