Even though lots of people don’t want to admit it, but hey, we all love American Idol, and listening to “some” of Simon Cowell’s insults is like being told off by your older, teenage brother – you know he’s “kind of” right, but he certainly can do with some sugarcoating. Once in awhile, you would [...]
