A news report revealed on Monday that the famous presenter Simon Cowell paid £2,000 ($2,700) for a facelift.

The Contact Music website said that Cowell, 58, recently visited the prominent cosmetic surgeon Dr. Jean-Louis Sebagh known as the "Picasso of dermatology" and the “King of Botox”, for his facelift, the German News Agency reported.

The website noted that Cowell, who participated as a judge in many talent shows including the X Factor, was hoping to lift his skin by using a special technique that helps get rid of the flabby skin in the face and neck.

Cowell said: “There's lots of things you can do now, you don't just have to stuff your face with filler and Botox,” adding that the process “hurts like hell but it gets rid of sun damage.”

“For me now, it's all about having clean skin, if you have clean skin, you look better,” explained the X Factor judge.

Discover the hidden gem of the UK's coffee culture, where vibrant independent cafes outshine the chains, offering a unique blend of flavors and atmospheres.

“Fancy a brew?” “I'll put the kettle on then.” Hearing those words are no longer as familiar as it once were as coffee has overtaken tea in the UK, The Daily Express newspaper reported on Monday.

It said grabbing a coffee either on the go or at a café is as part of British culture these days as it is in Italy.

But while every person has its favorite chain, be it Pret, Starbucks, Costa or Cafe Nero, nothing beats finding a decent independent coffee shop one can call home especially when it can seem high streets are dominated by the same chains.

So with the demand for coffee only growing, where is the best spot in the UK to find an independent coffee shop?

A study by Reviva Coffee reveals the UK city that is the hidden gem when it comes to thriving coffee culture.

And it probably isn't where you'd expect. In fact this county is synonymous with tea. Yorkshire Tea, to be precise.

However the study discovered the best UK city to find independent coffee shops is in the Yorkshire city of Leeds. It has a staggering 584 coffee shops, of which 86.3% are independent, and just under 14% are chains.

Placing second is Edinburgh. Whether you’re a coffee connoisseur or just needing a cosy pit stop, Edinburgh has you covered with its outstanding coffee scene with 560 shops, 85% of which are independents.

In third for best UK cities for independent coffee shops is Bristol which has 347 coffee shops, 86.3% of which are independent.
