Total legend.
Ehhhhh... used to think he was hilarious, now I just find him a bit irritating and with his heightened media profile and the elevation of his music label to this "dream maker" status it's become clearer than ever that he really doesn't know what works in the music business, he's just had some very lucky breakthroughs. For every one Leona Lewis he's had five Steve Brooksteins throughout his career, he's not very good at what he claims to do IMO.
I don't really like him, but he's funny, so yay and nay

I hate what he's done to the music/entertainment industry and he's vastly overrated in that area, but he MAKES X factor and it isn't the same without him from just a casual viewer point

The production quality of his shows are second to none and his presence on their panels automatically improves them so yay
He's better at TV than he is music

Yeah I think he's been responsible for a lot of chart dirge even before he was on Pop Idol and known to the general public (see: Sinitta) but he's at least got an eye for what's entertaining in the short term. Crap music manager and I don't think he really knows anything about what the public want to listen to, he's not a musical person, but he's got a keen eye for entertainment.

from wearing the mr blobby suit to being worth about 300 million, you have to say he has done well, talent shows did the same for him, what bigbrother did for john endemole.

I think it's probably because, in recent years, he knows he makes more money from all the TV crap. I heard his company was moving into films too.
He's just a "go where the money is" man.

Oi! I mowed a third of a bloody acre this morning and there were a few dandelions there with their white bits on... Admittedly there were several hundred squillion yellow ones.
You're very talented, operating your camera with just the one hand.

I don't really like him, I hate how the X Factor was all about him and his stupid flirting and play fighting with the whichever current good looking female judge was on the panel especially Cheryl, it's what made me stop watching X Factor and him and Cheryl returning is a great reason to stick to not watching

I used to really like him but now am indifferent to him, I am really not bothered whether he is on TV again or not.
I don't like his attitude and the way he pre-judges acts on his shows, usually wrongly too.
He is just too full of himself, it is time and would be nice to see too, him brought down a bit.

Oh God that was just ****ing sick to watch on a weekly basis, couldn't tell if he was trying to get in about her, if she was shagging him backstage to really earn her wage or if he's her gay best friend; either way it was still gross and uncomfortable to watch

hard to like a guy who is the main reason of killing real music. and robbing school kids of their pocket money and taking money out of the hands of real tallent
The music world would be so much better without him. he has ruined uk music and has spread his disease across the world.

Has the pop charts ever had this supposed "real music"?
If you want "real music" then look for it beyond TV talent shows and the Top 40. That's always been the case even before Cowell.

real music doesn't stand a chance against the macdonlds cowel throwaway pop
like that artist who is dying would of been number 1 recently but stopped by the x factor crap. its disgusting.
if cowel never existed it would be so much better. no one can get a look in when you got the manufactured crap force fed us fromt he tv to the radio to the media.
but saying that i blame the thick people who buy into that crap.
yeah you have to search outside the top 40 for real music but you should have to. hunt for it amongst the garbage for glitters of gold lol

But that's ALWAYS been the case. Only mainstream/broad appeal stuff gets wide attention and TV slots/charts because it's just that, mainstream.

There's a difference between mainstream and force fed tracks though
which cowel is responsible for.
people cant go mainstream when you got x factor the like taking over the charts.

Mainstream meaning bland/uninspired/repetitive/similar music all getting the high sales and the major popularity.
Most stuff of substance doesn't get into mainstream because they don't appeal to the masses.
Before Cowell you had Aqua/Spice Girls/N Sync etc etc it's always been that way.

cowel was doing what he is doing now though before x factor. didn't he turn the spice girls down , he was part of all that and westlife etc
yeah real music is usually always outside the top40 single charts anyway
