Tom Jones: Simon Cowell Not Qualified To Be A Judge
Monday 19th March 2012 | Osh
The music icon said that Simon is just a ‘record man’ and shouldn’t be able to make judgement on other’s singing abilities.
He said it annoys him when people mentor others when they haven’t been in that position themselves, and compares it to a teacher with no teaching experience.
He said that when he heard about the new show The Voice he liked the concept, but didn’t agree until he knew who else was appearing. He said this was because there are too many people in the industry who cannot sing so who are they to comment?
The show will premiere alongside Britain’s Got Talent next Saturday with will.i.am Jessie J and Danny O Donoghue.
