American Idol ex-judge, Simon Cowell, might be a thing from the past of American Idol’s history but what do you know, Simon Cowell still loves American Idol and who ever slams the show or say bad things on it, well… don’t expect to simply get away with it without a fight! Previously, veteran singer Elton John said that “I’m not a fan of talent shows. I probably wouldn’t have lasted if I’d gone on one. I was asked to judge American Idol. I couldn’t do it because I won’t slag (criticize) anyone off. Also I don’t want to be on television. It’s become boring, a**e-paralyzingly brain crippling.” If you ask me, I don’t care about those things the guy said but not Simon Cowell!!

Right, both of these guys were British and the funny thing here is that they can really talk a lot! Now Simon Cowell is furiously firing back his own statement like this:

“Elton John said in the papers… he said that these shows don’t produce stars. Well Elton if you’re not watching, I’m going to send you this tape and you can take back what you said.”

“The truth is Elton’s watching the show every week. What he’s slightly missing the point on, and you always hear this resentment from bigger artists nowadays… they don’t like the fact a show can make an artist. I always say to these people who criticize – why don’t you spend some time with new artists. If Elton feels that strongly about it then my message to him is: ‘You show me how to do it.”

Now how about if we take a rest and let these guys do the talking…
