Bling Posted January 19 Report Share Posted January 19 Shit happens. People need to grow a backbone or retaliate. If Simon called me a bush baby, I'd take a bat to his knees.

Guest swirlundergrounder Posted January 19 Report Share Posted January 19 the criticism is the main reason i even watch. when "the good people come" the show gets less entertaining to me. but insulting something the person cant help on tv for a laugh crosses the line.the bathtub comment was directed at her horrible singing, thats completely different.American Idol has every right to insult those people any way they want to. Be it about their physical appearance, talent ot lack there of. You have to have been living on Mars with no TV access for the past 5 years to not know what go's on during this show. If you go on A.I to audition and get into that room with Randy, Paula and Simon you have go to know that you expose yourself to being hacked apart by them... we already know how you feel since you said you thought it was the funniest part. that little guy and his round buddy were obviously mentally challenged. apparently that type of thing makes you laugh.ive watched the opening weeks of the show pretty much every year. the bush baby comment was crossing the line.I didn't catch this 'bush baby' comment. When did that happen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest swirlundergrounder Posted January 19 Report Share Posted January 19 Because some people deserve to be made fun of if they bring it upon themselves.There are some people who go on American Idol for example with huge egos thinking they are the next American Idol and have no talent to back up their trash talking. People who act like that deserve more scrutiny than some others.Simon criticizes people in ways that all of us criticize people on TV who ever it may be. You have to be all lying to yourselves if you say that you don't criticize people on TV the way Simon does on American Idol.Face it! That's the entertainment business. You could be the ugliest, least talented person on Earth or you can be the most talented, beautiful person on Earth. No matter who you are, if you put yourself out there to perform, someone is going ot make fun of the way you act, look, carry yourself on stage etc. Simon just says what most people would say at home, when people watch TV with friends and family and make fun of people within their closed doors..

We do live in a more cynical age....perhaps, but back then maybe things were just as bad it just wasn't shown on television. Now you can hear four-letter words on cable, and pretty much soft porn, brutal murders, and drug overdoses....If these people allow themselves to be berated on t.v. for money than so be it.....it seems our world is more money hungry than anything else and they will do anything they possibly can just to make a buck and be seen on television.

I mean.....geeze if you can't rely on your friends and family to be honest to you....Exactly. One guy on A.I Seattle (kid with a white shirt and tie with funky teeth) said that his audition was a serious reality check for him.That's a good thing. The hardest thing for people to deal with is criticism in anyway. You can either take that criticism and dwell on it and do nothing or you can take it and make some positive changes...

Guest clubchicky Posted January 19 Report Share Posted January 19 no maybe try a different career...what the hell were you thinking???
