Simon Cowell showed off his toilet humor on Wednesday as he drove a very racy van to the Britain’s Got Talent auditions in Blackpool.
The music mogul, 65, shared a gallery of behind-the-scenes snaps from the latest auditions as he posed with Amanda Holden, 53, Alesha Dixon, 46, and Bruno Tonioli, 69.
Arriving at the auditions, Simon was seen driving a fun car wrapped in yellow gold metal as he and Amanda drove to the theater.
However, the car also featured a striking caricature of someone sitting on a toilet in the door of Simon’s car.
Amanda was seen speaking into a yellow microphone as the duo drove around Blackpool meeting locals and contestants before their auditions.
Once inside the theater, Simon took a selfie with the cheerful audience waving at the camera.

He wrote: ‘Yesterday first day back in Blackpool for @bgt auditions. This is now one of my favorite places in the world. The people are absolutely brilliant and the crowd is SO loud!
‘Thought I’d share with you what my day was like yesterday… and a surprise from @antanddec this morning… Guys, I’ll call you back! With love, Simón x’.
It comes after Simon suggested he is still suffering from a painful medical issue after speaking out about it for the first time last year.

In February last year, Simon took to his Instagram and explained to some “concerned” fans that he needed them for health reasons.
He finished by saying: ‘Next week we’re filming BGT in Manchester; I hope to see you then. P.S. That’s why I wear these glasses!’
Sharing a photo of him wearing the glasses while on the judging panel, he wrote: “I just found out, according to the internet, that I have a ‘mystery illness.’
“For everyone interested, I missed two auditions at the end of one day two weeks ago because I get migraines after long days under the filming lights.
In this series, the judges will once again be joined by hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly, while YouTube star KSI will also make a special appearance on the show.
The series was postponed in October following the death of Liam Payne, who rose to fame on Simon’s show The X Factor in 2010.
In a statement following Liam’s death in October, a spokesperson for the show’s producer, Freemantle UK, said: “Due to the tragic passing of Liam Payne, we have decided to postpone the Britain’s Got Talent auditions.” “Our thoughts are with Liam’s friends, family and everyone who loved him.”
Simon had decided at the last minute to cancel the auditions in Blackpool when he discovered the shocking news.
Following Liam’s death, a “devastated” Simon paid a heartfelt tribute to the “kind, funny and talented” One Direction star, who “never forgot the fans”.

On Instagram, she wrote: “You never really know how you feel about someone until a moment like this happens.”
‘Liam, I’m really devastated. With a broken heart. And I feel empty. And I want you to know how much love and respect I have for you. Every tear I have shed is a memory of you.
‘This is very difficult to put into words right now. I went out today and thought about so many times we spent together.
‘I wanted to let you know what I would always say to the thousands of people who would always ask me. What is Liam like? And I would tell them that you are kind, funny, sweet, thoughtful, talented, humble and focused. And how much you loved music. And how much love you really had for the fans.
‘I had to tell you when you were 14 that this was not your time. And we both made a promise that we would meet again. Many people would have given up. You didn’t do it. You came back and within months everyone knew Liam.
And you never forgot the fans. I saw you spend so much time with people who wanted to get to know you. You really cared.
—You came to see me last year. Not for a meeting. Just to sit and talk. And we remember all the fun times we had together.
‘And how proud you were to be a dad. After you left, I remembered that you were still the sweet, kind boy I knew all those years ago.
He continued: ‘I have met your son, Bear. He has your smile and that sparkle in your eyes. And he will be very proud of everything you achieved. And how you achieved it.
‘I always thought of you five in the band as brothers. And reading your messages today I think you were.
‘And now Liam, I can see the effect you had on so many people. Because you left us too soon.

Auditions have resumed after Britain’s Got Talent made a big change to the audition process.
Show bosses have canceled holding the auditions at the London Palladium and they will now all take place in Blackpool.
According the sun, The bosses decided to change the venue because they found the atmosphere in the coastal town too enthusiastic for the show.
A source said: “BGT is a show that depends on the audience and how they react, and basically the crowd in Blackpool are absolutely brilliant.”
“The Palladium is an iconic venue, but if you compare the shows in Blackpool with those filmed in London, the audience is much more enthusiastic there.
“Boss Simon Cowell has given the move the green light and just wants the show to be the best it can be.”
The source added that Amanda may not be happy with the move as she works five days a week in London and will have to travel.
