I think it's a reinforcement of the world she lives and works in.


But still someone answer the question...just what would qualify someone to judge music if, being head of a succesful music publishing company, being in one of the UK's most successful girl bands, having been a sucessful manager for several sucessful acts, and having worked in the music and tv industry since the age of doesn't qualify a person!

It's not judging music though is it? That's for A&R men, who make real decisions. This is PR - for the telly.


The 'music judging' comprises less than ten stock scripted lines.


This year's faves are:


"By any standards, that was world class"

"I just didn't get it"

"You're pitching was a bit off" ('Pitching..?!' wtf?)

"I don't think you get enough appreciation"

"You're a tryer"


("Nailed it" has, of course, been banned following overuse last series)

It was metaphorical waynetta, and in irony to his comment that he'd shag both of them (Cheryl and Dannii) and that's all they're good for. He deserves whatever anyone says in response to that - he brings it on himself, whereas the non consenting sujects of the photos you posted as 'mingers' didn't deserve the humiliation they might have felt at your use of their images in your 'mingers' thread.


It's not a like for like analogy I'm afraid.

Revenue from record sales?


Oh yeah.. that latter half of the 20th century phenomenon. I remember now.

if that's the case then they need new scriptwriters - every week is the same...

"You look like a popstar, you sound like a popstar.."

"You absolutely nailed it"

"You made that song your own"

"You're out of your comfort zone"

"You gave me goosebumps"


ENOUGH ALREADY!

Actually, he made a lot of his wealth in the music business before the X-Factor/Pop Idol shows started. The talent shows just allowed him to multiply his wealth and his profile quite considerably.

    • I can't, but I'm sure ChatGPT could, if you ask it! With Windows 11, you can share documents, eg with work colleagues, via a setting. Probably it's the same with iPads etc and the solicitor has accidentally or deliberately shared it with your friend? I'm sure the solicitor can explain it if asked. Hopefully it wasn't an accident!
    • Yes of course a lot of it is total bollocks. And of course the House of Lords is ridiculous. But the class system etc isn't because we have a "royal family", is it?
    • Can't remember where I got them, online somewhere recommended by my daughter, but they are cloth and brightly coloured and fit quite tightly around my nose and mouth. I've still got a stock of them. Tissues inside might help a bit,  but if you have a very runny nose you basically need to keep removing the mask to blow it. Luckily I have only had to go out once when I've had  a bad cold. Sorry, probably too much information.
    • To be fair to Royalists, it didn't work out too well for anyone last time we canned the monarchy. I'd imagine quite a few French, Germans, Spanish, Portuguese and Russians had second thoughts after they' found out what you get in their place - those really didn't work out well. Maybe elected heads of state only work well where there's never been a monarchy. The countries I'd aspire to - the Scandinavian states, The Netherlands - have slimmed down monarchies, and that looks like the way we're moving. I'd take that and abolition of an unelected upper house, most particularly the hereditary element of it, as a decent starting point.
