Simon Cowell Runs, operates, stars in and controls the top rated UK TV show ‘The X Factor’. But after last nights show, many are claiming he has destroyed the principals of the show and doomed it to an early grave. So what did Simon ‘God’ Cowell do?

It revolves around a singing duo on the talent show called John and Edward, twins who cannot sing but are still in the show. Mr Cowell said about the duo a week ago:- “If they win, it will be a complete and utter disaster. I’d probably sulk for about six months and I’d probably get on a very fast plane out of the country.”

On last nights show, the terrible duo up against Welsh warbler Lucie were ready to be booted out. The casting vote was Mr Cowells, so after he had said how much he hates them and this was a ‘singing competition’, they were going right? Wrong.

Lucie, who can actually sing, was booted off the show. Leaving a complete Country shaking their heads in disbelief.

Seen by many as a cynical move, Simon Cowell went back on all he holds dear (allegedly). MAybe he was thinking of the controversy his decision would make. All those tickets being sold for next year’s The X Factor tour, may not be sold based on Lucie’s great singing. It will be based on who can get those seats filled.

Although the twins singing is pants, they interest the nation in a sick kind of way. The internet has been awash with comments all slating Simon and declaring that the X Factor is no longer a singing competition – it’s a search for a pop star who can shift a load of records and make a load of money. Against all the odds and with Simons help, the twins look as though they might be able to do that.

It looks as though Simon may have made a bad decision as thousands threaten to boycott the show and say they have lost all respect for the once great man.

Selection of viewer comments:-

Whole thing is ludicrous. Simon is judging a show where people get through because of their SINGING talent, Jedward have got through because of their complete lack of any talent whatsoever. He has really knocked his own credibility as a judge. If he wants to just be a Producer and concerned with ratings, he should step down as a judge.

Right, so this was the moment the x factor became cheap and trashy. Everything on the show up until this point was packed full of talent, credibility and honesty and now, only now, has the show become a joke….

Its no surprise that Cowell who has sold his soul to the devil would act with such cynicism. He knows the twins can’t win, but he’s desperate for more of the magic effect they have had on the show’s ratings. Surely this demonstrates that he knows this show has reached its demise, and that he needs to resort to extreme measures to keep it going. By booting out Lucie, he also was strategically eliminated the strongest female competitor, effectively paving the way for one of his own acts to the final.

I used to respect Simon Cowell for being Firm but Fair. Unfortunately his performance last called his integrity into question. I really felt I was watching a man who cannot, or will not stand by his word(s).
In my world it disingenuous in the least, and cowardly in the extreme. Driving to work today.. “Simon Coward” was on my mind.

I am not going to watch the rest of the x factor show as it has turned into a joke.

There are literally thousands of comments like this all slating Simon ‘This is a singing competition’ Cowell. Who may now find he cannot dig his way out of a hole that could spell the end of X Factor.

X Factor is available to watch on ITV Catch up TV for UK viewers.
