'American Idol' judge Simon Cowell: Entire 'Larry King' show 'uncomfortable'

Simon Cowell speaks with "Extra's" Terri Seymour about the awkward interview the "American Idol" judges and host Ryan Seacrest gave Larry King on Monday, April 19.

On "Larry King," Cowell talked to Larry about leaving the "Idol" and whether or not he'll miss it. Ellen DeGeneres also got in a sly dig about Larry King's recent marital troubles.

Now Simon tells his ex-girlfriend Terri Seymour, "I'd say the entire show was uncomfortable ... We were supposed to be there to talk about 'Idol Gives Back' and it just became really, really uncomfortable." He also addresses the off-screen pranks between himself and Ryan Seacrest.
