Instead, he comes out with 'Peter (or whatever it was), she was absolutely awful. In fact, you are partly to blame for your daughter's delusions.'

In that case tbf, I will agree with Simon.

Parents should tell their child the truth if they're about to humiliate themselves on national TV.

None. They were all interchangeable, barely talented little pop tarts. Not my kind of music.....

That’s the case for most artists/bands though.

Well not really

Not many bands have anywhere near as much success as the Spice Girls and many , probably the majority are far more talented

Most people in pop lack great singing abilities and have major success. Many are just marketed in a way to become the next big thing (with varying success).

Same for other genres. The best don’t usually make it as the biggest.

Yeah we know all that.. you are not exactly dropping jaw breaking news here


My point was that the Spice Girls had unparalleled success despite having no real talent- one half decent singer and no dancers in the group ..

Did I say I was dropping ground breaking news? Can’t see I did.

I know what your point is, which is why I replied with my point - many successful artist/bands are in the right time and place (many of whom are not really that talented - especially in pop).

My earlier reference was they took it all to the extreme as they were the ‘perfect storm’ of unprecedented success aligned with them being almost talentless

That’s it basically


We are just travelling around in circles now
