On the show EXTRA (May 29), Simon said "shows how selfish he is" that he did not talk to anyone, would not sing with anyone, and did not even say goodbye. He ended with something like "thank you prince for you generosity"

Really?? Is that all Simon's got??? He really had to dig deep to find something so lame to criticize. He'd really sound like an a$$ if he were to say anything about Prince musically.

talk to the hand Whatever Simon. Watch the video of the performance--Paula and Randy stood up and applauded when Prince came out; Paula was dancing and Randy was bobbin' his head while Simon just sat there, dumbfounded I guess. If Prince saw that, which it seems certain that he would, why would he even want to talk to Simon?

Simon's just trying to create drama out of nothing...another reason I despise shows like Extra & Access Hollywood. They perpetuate the infatuation with celebrity drama when there's really nothing to talk about. rolleyes
The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp.

seriously...can you really picture Prince standing there after performing and talking to the judges? Even in front of Paula and Randy who would most definitely would have only good things to say...even still it would seem beneath him somehow. They stand up and applaud the idol contestants who can't even read music, let alone play it....So, their adoration towards Prince would have seemed trite.

Prince is beyond at that. He knows it, we all know it. Now maybe more of "America" knows it.

That was THE best part of the entire performance... arrive JUST in time. Perform. Turn back on Seacrest and bolt.


Haha completely agree.Cowell is a pantomime dame whoose amusing yet disposable comments people 4get as soon as the credits roll! On the X-Factor(UK`s American Idol) 2 winners he backed have been dumped by their record companies & the winner he slagged(Will Young)is multi-platinum selling!
2 be honest IMHO I love the fact that he done his thing then strutted off ignoring the desperate wannabees & the ridiculous host!!

simon powell is a cunt, plain and simple. he says unnecessarily mean things to those poor people on the show. he makes sport of putting people down.



but then again in the same story he did say Clay's new hair stlye was bad.



well, persoanlly i'd like simon to put his money where his mouth is.

if he's even able to do so, that is.

i'd like to see him get up on that stage, play an instrument or two and sing for our entertainment.

i doubt he can though smile
