Simon Cowell<\/a> says Tom Sandoval<\/a> would make a ton of money in the music industry … as a wedding singer — not as a mainstream frontman.<\/p>\n

We caught up with the “America’s Got Talent” judge and asked him about Sandoval’s performance on the show back in August … which Cowell lightly ripped apart — telling Sandoval he liked him and his group … but their performance of “Blinding Lights” didn’t sound good.<\/p>\n

Cowell tells us Sandoval just didn’t really impress him — as much as his fans may have liked the performance … but, he could see Sandoval leading a “party band.”<\/p>\n

SC points out there’s a ton of money in weddings and birthday parties … and, he thinks Sandoval and his group — Tom Sandoval and the Most Extras — would rake in the dough if they jumped into that space.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

While Cowell doesn’t think Sandoval can sell records, we asked him if he’s interested in helping a new group do it … namely, does he plan on forming another new boy or girl band anytime soon?<\/p>\n

Cowell — who played a major role in founding groups like One Direction and Fifth Harmony, and formed a group called December 10 in his docuseries last year — says he’s thinking about it … watch the clip all the way through to hear his full thoughts.<\/p>\n

Bottom line … not every group has a Grammy-winning album in its future — but that doesn’t mean there’s no money to be made!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Simon Cowell Tom Sandoval’s Band Would Be Great at Weddings Published March 25, 2026 7:30 AM PDT |…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":544681,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[53],"tags":[88,216],"class_list":{"0":"post-544680","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-music","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-music"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/544680","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=544680"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/544680\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/544681"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=544680"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=544680"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=544680"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
