I shit you not. What the fuck is the world coming to?

BBC News - Simon Cowell to get special Bafta award

What next, Jeremy Kyle for outstanding contribution to the moral decline of the nation? Really, what amazing talent has Cowell unearthed? Leona Lewis, good yep but she was always going to make it if she was motivated. Kelly Clarkson? The jury is still out on that one to be honest. Susan Boyle? Lol just lol, a gimmick with a voice designed to fleece the witless. Fat bloke who sings opera? He had years of opera coaching to get that voice, talent yes but again Cowell coming across him was more luck than ability.

Thoughts?

Emmy, bafta, oscar...who gives a f*ck really. It's all a bunch of(i imagine uptight) people choosing what they like, not what majority likes.

It's the opposite really, Simon Cowell has like it or not brought joy to millions with his program. Completely different to something like the Oscars where the judging is much more esoteric.

I'm sure he has and the shows popularity is most likely the reason for the award, still it does come down to a commitee and as such, few peoples opinion.

Say if 3/5 of the jury thought SC is a cock and based vote on that, wouldn't be seeing a trophy for him and the reasons would likely be "Not enough bullshit bullshit, with mumbojumbo being a better one." :p

It is utter bullshit, they should be giving awards to more deserving people like Sir Rik Mayall! Now that many has brought joy to millions of lives, helped feed many starving African's and through his tireless work help fund the cure for cancer!

Arise Sir Rik!

I have respect for his business and PR abilities, and he can be quiet funny. But he does not deserve the BAFTA for the reasons stated. They should just be honest and say, he's successfully milked the zero - star reality format and so we want to give him a prize.

The guy had it all and got too big for his boots and lost it again.

He started over and is now where he is. I wouldn't mind being 90million behind him in the rich list!!!
