She said: "He's so cute. He is adorable. He's actually a sweetheart ... I really liked him. I think he's really cool. Now, obviously, he's in Los Angeles with X Factor and we started to hang out and we became friends ... I think he's a great guy."
Simon and Carmen were first spotted enjoying a flirtatious dinner at Los Angeles restaurant Cecconi's in September.
An onlooker said at the time: "They were getting very cosy. They were holding hands and staring into each other's eyes - and then they started making out.
