Title: The Sweetest Revenge
Pairing: Ryan Seacrest/Simon Cowell
Rating: NC-17
Summary: Ryan is determined to learn the story behind his bizarre characterization in Tom Bower's new biography of Simon.
Length: 6,200 words
Notes: In April 2012, Tom Bower (a respected investigative journalist who previously worked for the BBC) published a biography of Simon Cowell titled "
Sweet Revenge." Although the biography is considered "unauthorized," Simon granted Bower access to 200 hours of his time (including holidays in the Mediterranean and the Caribbean), and it seems as if the book was written to prove three basic points: (1) Simon is 100% heterosexual and NOT gay in any way, shape, or form; (2) Simon is more successful, intelligent, sexy, and powerful than Simon Fuller could ever hope to be; and (3) Ryan Seacrest barely exists, but when he does, it is only as a source of great irritation to Simon Cowell. My story attempts to explain how someone like Tom Bower could have written a book filled with so many distortions and lies.
