He played on the X Factor. Big ****ing hypocrite.

Just because he played on X Factor doesn't mean he automatically has to prefer their music. :p

lol, that's a surprise!! haha

It's the principle.

If you perform at a show it is assumed they have your support.

Well he was in one of the greatest bands of all time, he does have a rep to keep lol

I suppose, but if he genuinely prefers RATM then...

In fairness, the old *****er probably can't remember.

:laugh3:

Good old Paul

Everyone listen to Paul McCartney, THE LEGEND! Who has sold more than A BILLION records worldwide :D He is a fan of Jedward too, Sir McCartney is GOD!

macca has sense

I adored Paul when he was a Beatle (yes, I'm THAT old! LOL), but I didn't think he sang too well on the show. Mind you he's older than me!

I guess Paul would do anything for money.

Paul knows whats right!

Yeah because at just under £1 billion he needs it?

?????

Maybe it goes to his ex wife.

He goes on the show, and then says he'd prefer Rage to get number 1.

I think she gets £35k a year child support and she only got a one-off settlement of about £20m. But I'm not sure - but still, he's more than minted, and a lot more of the Beatles' discography sales are going to him than before now.

Jacko screwed him well and truly back in the day.

The man is a musical legend. End of ;)

Claudia, he's one of the wealthiest men in the UK and it was a real coup for the X Factor to get him on the show, but he's not a pawn of Simon's and the idea of RATM winning probably tickles him pink. There's no motivation behind it except probably for the fact that he's an artist and enjoys the idea of ruffling a few feathers and changing the pattern of things a bit, just like the Beatles did in their heyday. Nothing duller than Cowell monopolising the airwaves each Xmas.

I dont get why people are calling him a hypocrite
yeah he was on xfactor so what?
that doesnt mean he prefers joes music
not to say he even likes RATM
maybe he just wants a change like the rest of us

Uh oh Claudia, you've set James off now lol :tongue:

:D


Well maybe he didn't do it for the money, maybe he wanted to use the show to try and get his music to a younger generation.

But it just seems tacky to appear on the show and then knock it.
