Shirtless Simon Cowell Jet Skis in Barbados | Pictures

Simon Cowell was spotted in Barbados yesterday on one of his favorite modes of transportation — a jet ski! The X Factor judge hit the seas in a pair of wild board shorts and showed off his toned torso while navigating the waves alongside his former fiancée, Mezhgan Hussainy. Simon is currently in the midst of a three-week holiday and appears to be doing his best to unwind after closing out another tumultuous season of The X Factor.

Tate Stevens won the $5 million recording contract last week, beating out Britney Spears's 13-year-old hopeful, Carly Rose Sonenclar, and Simon's girl group, Fifth Harmony. The show may have wrapped, but new rumors are swirling that Britney will be fired from the show. There's been no comment from Spears or Simon at this point, though fellow judge L.A. Reid confirmed he won't be back for a third season.
