I love Simon. He’s almost always dead-on correct. If there were more people like him in the music industry to tell people what they sound like, maybe we wouldn’t have all this **** on the radio like there is these days.

There are things Simon Cowell does that I like and things that I don’t. I think it is good that he is to the point when people give a performance that he feels is not up to par. On the other hand, I was offended a few times during the auditions, such as when he told one man that he looked like a bush baby and made fun of the weight of an autistic man.

(On the other hand, I don’t take offense when he merely suggests contestants who have a shot at winning would do well to get their weight under control – Jennifer Hudson, Kimberly Locke, Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood, Ruben Studdard and Taylor Hicks ALL lost weight during or after the season in which they competed.)

Honesty is good, but being needlessly rude isn’t.

One of our judges in the Australian version (in which Simon doesn’t participate) made the valid point that the press are much more consistently merciless (needlessly rude, as you’d say) about such things as a celebrity’s appearance than any of the judges, including Simon. And you only need to pick up any tabloid magazine to see the truth of that.

Someone who hopes to become famous really needs to be mentally prepared for this not-so-nice and sweet aspect of celebrity life too.
