What is even more staggering is the fact that this Simon Fuller is in charge and seems to have so much authority and power in TV circles.

Media-wise, Fuller is a very successful, very smart and very shrewd operator.

He has close links with the Beckhams and played a major role in Dave's $250m move to LA Galaxy.

I cant stand posh or any of those others that stoop to reality Tv shows of themselves but for that role shes right on the money

Could talk under water,has the runs on the board music wise for the audience of Idol and is likely to not be out of the medias eye

Idol is about 2 things....publcitiy/controversy & suckering in as many morons to part with their hard earned money under the guise of interactive TV

To give you an idea of what judging on Idol is really about we have/had a former big brother contestant on australian idol(kyle sandilands)who has no music credibility what so ever but he plays the bad judge ala simon very well

I blame Poopy Morgan...

I'm really starting to enjoy reading Sam and Max's little arguments, although I must confess I find myself almost unequivically agreeing with Sam on these threads. Although I will add

>>Any singer/dancer/musician/writer/model/actor/pornstar/sportsman is saying 'look how good I am!' when they do what they do.

Not just those people add designers (all kinds), architects, artists, etc...This subject is quite close to home for me, generally think its a case of if you 'create' something or physically do something and show it off to the world it takes ego to allow you to do that.

Just a thought.

Glad you like them !happy!

Trying to make Max see sense isn't the easiest job in the world, and I'm not deluded and think there's much chance of him changing his views. I just think it needs to be said, regardless, because there's not much of an alternative view around here.
