    I noticed that the guy on the left is the British guy from the UK version. He really tells people that they are shit right to their face. So funny yet so harsh ! God only knows what he's say to that guy singing.

    What the hell was that? Dude, talk about a one act show. Did this guy really think he was gonna win with an impression of a video game character? You wonder why I hate TV so much.

    Maybe he is a Nintendo Fanboy that lost a bet...or wanted to prove how hardcore he was for Nintendo! :lol:

    Nerdism knows now boundaries nor shame.

    Damn, I really wish I had a link to this one movie I saw of a D and D nerd being interviewed on the street for some night show. I watched it and ROFL'd like crazy. This guy started talking in old medieval speak and said he was an all powerful grand wizard and everyone in the auidence laughed at his outright embarrasing escapade. He wasnt embarassed at all.

    I wonder if years of being laughed at and made fun of for years makes them not give a fuck what other people think?

    Yakumo, the guy on the left is Simon Cowell (sp?). He's the star of the US version (not sure about the UK). I've never watched an episode, but this guy has become famous for basically being a cunt to contestants, although a very honest one.

    Yeah Simon Cowell is the star of the UK version as well. He does X-factor with sharon osbourne also. He is the real star of the show, I only watch the auditions just to see how he takes down the contestants.

    He is cruel, but very funny! Frankly anyone who goes on that show knows what simon is like - so you can't really feel sorry for them. Unless they are actually insane - but I'm sure most of the really bad people are just there for a laugh and to get on tv.

    Ah, yeah that's his name, Simon Cowell. He's a right bastard but so funny. I remember watching the one he was on with Sharon Osborne in the UK just over a year or so ago. Bloody funny the stuff he's come out with. I'm truly surprised that no one has smacked him in the face yet. Maybe they will on the US version :p You know, like a Jerry Springer effort :lol:

    There's a video somewhere of a contestant recently. Search aroung m90.org... it's hillarious. She doesn't punch him, but talks shit about all the judges on the way out... for like 10 minutes.

    This reminds me of..:
    -The person last year who sang Fly me to the moon(ending theme Neon Genesis Evangelion) without knowing it was an anime show ending
    -The person this year that sang the Jigglypuff song
    -The person in the French Idols that sang the Japanese(!) opening from Knights of the Zodiac/ Saint Seiya.

    Especially that last guy was simply hilarious.

    Um, did you know Frank Sinatra sang that song MANY, MANY, MANNNNY, years ago? (Way before Evangelion)

    Ignorance is bliss.

    You might as well laugh at someone singing Country Roads since it appeared in one of Hayou Miyazaki's films. lol

    Yeah, I did know that. Apparantly the joke didn't get through: everyone thought that person had gotten it from Evangelion, while that person had never heard from the show etcetera..

    Hell, I didnt even know it was a quite old song until I heard it played on a Frank Sinatra album commercial on TV.

    I was shocked. This was back in my Evangelion crazy days. Good times. Reading boring fanfictions for hours on end. Secretly wanting to play all of the games, too. :lol:

    I dare someone to go out to American Idol and sing one of the Lunar songs!

    It's not quite the same thing, but someone tossed water in his face in one of the earlier seasons.

    I only like watching the auditions, simply for how he handles some of these people.
