Ah, Simon Cowell, who found fame in the USA, but only as the biggest jerk from Britain! He could only capitalize on others' talents, not his own. Even the company he's paid by wasn't built on his own. The only thing he deserves is a boot up the @$$! I believe Roger Daltrey didn't say everything he was thinking... :) Good blog post.
