Paula Abdul's behavior has fascinated the public in recent years, and apparently Simon Cowell is no different.
Her fellow
American Idol, and now
The X Factor, judge chatted with
Redbook about the singer's sometimes confusing ways, telling the mag:
"From the minute I met Paula, I was fascinated by her. She's a complex person, but – this is going to sounds very American – she's got a great heart."
Aw! Cowell, 51, said it works that he and Abdul don't always get along. "I do really like people who disagree with me," he said. "Probably my best friends in the world are the people I argue with the most, because they don't always say what you want to hear."

Reportedly, the two haven't been getting along on the set of their upcoming reality competition show
Fashion Star. Said Nicole:
"That couldn’t be further from the truth. I love and adore Jessica. I’ve known her for years ... who she is is someone who’s very kind, very sweet and extremely smart and a great businesswoman … I actually couldn’t love someone or respect someone more."
Wow -- who knew they were that close! Nicole also chatted about son Sparrow's upcoming 2nd birthday, though she said Sparrow will be getting a "small" party!
“Let’s not forget that I’m turning 30," she said. "I feel like this is the year where I’m really going to celebrate my birthday, because I usually don't."
