Cowell hoping for better 2012

Simon Cowell is hoping 2012 is better than last year, after his relationship broke up and the US 'X Factor' fizzled.

The 52-year-old music mogul saw his new show, the US ‘X Factor’, fail to do as well as hoped in the ratings and his relationship with make-up artist fiancee Mezhgan Hussainy flounder in 2011 but he is hoping he can use the new year to turn things around.
