COWELL IS AMERICAN TV'S SECOND HIGHEST-PAID STAR

British music mogul SIMON COWELL's annual earnings of GBP22.5 million ($45 million) has earned him second place in a new poll of U.S. TV's highest-paid stars.

The 47-year-old is the brains behind popular talent shows America's Got Talent and American Idol, with the latter attracting more than 30 million viewers per episode.

But Cowell's impressive salary still cannot touch Oprah Winfrey's massive earnings - she remains top of the TV Guide magazine's rich list with a whopping GBP130 million ($260 million) a year.
