Former American Idol and X-Factor USA judge Simon Cowell got quite the scare when he woke up Friday morning. The BBC reports that the music mogul's home was reportedly burglarized while Cowell, his girlfriend Lauren Silverman and his one-year-old son were sleeping at home.

The thieves reportedly walked away with cash and jewelry.

"Police were called to an address in W14 on Friday 4 December at approximately 2:20am to reports of a burglary in progress," the London Metropolitan Police said in a statement.

"Officers attended the scene but the suspects had left the area. Enquiries continue. No arrests."

A representative for Cowell said that the incident will not affect Cowell's schedule for The X-Factor UK, which will tape the semi-final live shows this weekend.
