based on that id say she was always more hard work and ambition than talent. but she has learned to make the most of what she has.

simon cowell says that beyonce is a boring singer: Simon Cowell Says that Beyonce is a Boring Singer By WTH Staff Known for his acerbic wit and ability to make would-be super-stars break into tears with a mere lift of an eyebrow on FOX’s American Idol, current X-Factorjudge, Simon Cowell, has turned his spotlight on Beyonce, calling her the most “boring singer”:

“If you only ever heard Lady GaGa, she’s the most boring singer in the world. You’ve got to see her – you need TV. Same with Beyoncé. Or Katy Perry. We’re all about image. You have to have that X Factor,” he told the UK’s Mirror.

Cowell’s critiques have proven to be invalid in the past, famously having said that Beyonce’s Dreamgirls co-star, Jennifer Hudson, wasn’t that good of a singer, then having to eat his words:

“I think on balance, I was nice and harsh [to Hudson]. I don’t think she was good enough to win the year that she [was on], and I don’t think one person watching the show could have predicted that she was going to win an Oscar three years later,” Cowell told Entertainment Tonight.

Beyonce is probably not too concerned with the criticism, though. The Destiny Child front-woman, turned solo artist, turned Mrs. S. Carter, is expecting her first child with mega-star husband, Jay-Z.

Is Beyonce a ‘boring singer’?

I can see what he means but can't the same be said for Madonna and Whitney? There boring to listen to sometimes as well but great so see live. Also Mj, Prince, Bowie, Kiss etc. Image is important. These aren't the ''radio days''

LMAO that was horrible.... She definitly wasnt a MJ, Stevie, Little Richard like how they were when they were kids.. thats RAW MIND BLOWING talent not that shit.

Beyonce has ALWAYS been mediocre. But like someone said above she manages to make the most of what she has, and of course her looks help and her marketing squad. Other than that, there is nothing special about her talent wise shes a dime a dozen.. her talent can be easily duplicated.

I actually like Beyonce during her Gyrls Tyme-era. She seems more "hood" back then compare to her "definitely BPB test passing creole" self of today.

she is still very 'hood' imo. i mean if she wasn't she wouldnt be with a man like jayz, right. you can tell she's had some work done tho. i miss her dark hair too. like mariah carey she's gone way too lite.

Boring? That Simon has the audacity to call Beyonce boring when his company is behind such elevator music favorites as: Il Divo, Leona Lewis, Susan Boyle, and Jackie Evancho is pure comedy. Yeah…right.

They seem like they were trying to be too much like my favorite female group TLC.

Also just for those that didn't know. Prince protege Tamar(aka Ashley real name) was in this early group. If U look carefully she had a solo part rapping in this song.

eye will ALWAYS think of prince like a "ACT OF GOD"! N another realm. eye mean of all people who might of been aliens or angels.if found out that prince wasn't of this earth, eye would not have been that surprised. R.I.P. prince

Simon Cowell ain't that far off about the so-called 'Queen of Shit - Hop, Rhythmless and Bullshit.
