Simon Cowell continued his war of words against American Idol host Ryan Seacrest on yesterday's Live With Regis & Kelly.
"What he needs to understand is that on [Idol], no one actually wants to listen to him, other than saying, 'We'll be back after the break' or 'Seacrest out,'" Cowell sniped.
"I say this to him all the time, [the judges] are the ones who are paid to have an opinion. You just bring the artists on and off."
Cowell, who has gotten Botox, continued, "You know when you go to your auntie's and the little chihuahua gets on your leg because it thinks it's something else," Cowell said. "That's my relationship with Ryan."
Making a swatting gesture, Cowell added, "It's like — off!"
Tensions between Seacrest and Cowell heated up last year when Cowell addressed Seacrest as "sweetheart."
"Don't call me sweetheart," Seacrest shot back. "I don't want that kind of relationship."
