What ‘AGT’ fans are saying about Simon Cowell’s reaction to Kelly Clarkson’s debut

As you may have heard, Simon Cowell recently broke his back in several places while riding his new electric bike riding his Malibu, California. Because of this injury he was forced to miss America’s Got Talent‘s first two live shows on Tuesday and Wednesday. Kelly Clarkson filled in for him in on the judging panel. After Tuesday night’s episode, Cowell took to Twitter to thank Clarkson for filling in for him. He also let his fans know that he was missing during interaction with her AGT, and they responded kindly.

On Monday, two days after Cowell suffered a back injury, Clarkson announced she would participate AGT to fill in for her former American idol mentor. “My friend Simon Cowell is doing better now but was in an accident and will not be able to make the live shows on Tuesday and Wednesday AGT, “the singer wrote on Twitter.” But no worries for America, someone far wiser, cooler and hotter takes his seat! The unusually great Kelly Clarkson. You are most welcome! Hours after the live episode aired, Cowell not only thanked Clarkson for filling in for him at the last minute, but he also noticed that the NBC League had a “great show” full of exciting performances.

thank you @kellyclarkson. Miss you all. What a great performance. #AGT
