Cowell, 53, who was dating 'Baywatch' star Carmen Electra after meeting her when she was a judge on last year's 'Britain's Got Talent', said they are just good friends now, reported Sun online.
"I'm happy but I'd like to find a girlfriend. I'm now a single man. We spent time together and she is so much fun. But I'd like to find a girlfriend. I do particularly like British women but I haven't got my eye on anyone," he said.
The 'X Factor' boss regularly flies around the world to oversee music and television projects involving his Syco media empire.
Cowell was engaged to 'American Idol' make-up artist Mezghan Hussainy, 39, until a year ago.
