So TV's Mr Mean is ready to settle down at last. Simon Cowell may say he has given his heart to new love Mezhgan Hussainy and asked her to marry him - but do actions speak louder than words?

Simon's first public kiss on the American Jay Leno show was somewhat lacking in passion - and certainly lacked the 'X Factor.'

While Mezhgan's body language reveals true devotion - her whole body turned towards him with her eyes closed, lost in the moment - Simon's body language revealed something very different.

The hand clamped around her neck suggests he wants to keep tight control of his new love, while his open eyes suggest he is focused very much on the outside world. In fact, his eyes were somewhere else entirely.

Either British reserve got the better of him - at one point Simon admitted "I am blushing" as Leno pushed him to talk about his new relationship - or things aren't quite as they seem between the couple.
