Don Cornelius's son is still trying to make sense of his father's sudden and unexpected death.  In an interview with HLN's Showbiz Tonight, Tony Cornelius reveals for the first time his father's biggest professional regret. 

"In secret, one day we were having dinner or something to that nature and he said 'You know Tony, there's one mistake that I made that I kind of regret, cause I never knew she would be as big as she is.' And I said 'Who's that? Who'd that be?' And he said 'Madonna.'" 

Tony admits he was shocked over his father revelation. "At her height and based on who she is at this point, you wouldn't believe that anybody could miss that, but he missed, he missed that one."

For more of Tony Cornelius's interview tune into Showbiz Tonight at 11 p.m. ET/PT on HLN.
