King Simon got Lucky
yes but back then, it was less Population




Don't go getting MP Gove Angry.




[Education Secretary Michael Gove has
blasted X Factor boss Simon Cowell as
"irresponsible and stupid" for suggesting
that young people do not need to bother with education.
The Cabinet minister told the TV mogul he should
"encourage" teenagers at school, rather than "rubbish" learning.
Mr Gove made the comments after the talent
show boss advised that "the secret is to
be useless at school and then get lucky".

Cowell admitted that he did not work hard
at school, leaving at 16 without any qualifications.

"I was useless. The secret is to be useless at school and then get lucky,"
he told US radio station z100.
The remark appeared to be light-hearted and
an agent at Cowell's production company, Syco,
said: "This was quite clearly a joke made in a humorous
radio interview and has been taken completely out of context."

But Mr Gove warned that "only a fraction of kids get lucky".]
