Media Mogul Simon Cowell says smoking and drinking at 2 in the morning helps to calm his mind.

The 54-year-old 'X Factor' judge recently welcomed a baby boy with girlfriend Lauren Silverman, whom the couple named Eric, reported Daily Mirror.

I always think there is a time in your day when you can be creative. For me, one or two in the morning, couple of vodka and limes, couple of cigarettes, I'm in a calm place: I can think," Cowell said.

"If I tried to cut out cigarettes completely, I would have a real problem: too boring. It's the same with drinking. I'm pretty good at cutting back when I need to," he added.
