Simon Cowell: "Great voice; lose the attitude"

Some Fan · Nov 25th, 2003, 12:19 AM

'American Idol' judge Simon Cowell weighed in on several pop stars including Mariah Carey, Jennifer Lopez, Michael Jackson, and Avril Lavigne. His opinion on Spears? "At the outset of her career, most girls related to Britney," he said. "They didn't feel threatened. Years later, she tried to make herself sexy by wrapping pythons around her neck, but only made herself look ludicrous. It's like your younger sister putting on makeup for the first time." Cowell insisted Britney will "never be sexy." Asked if Mariah Carey tried out for the show what he'd say, Cowell responded, "Great voice; lose the attitude."

He said Jenny LoLo had the X-Factor and that's true. She's one of those people that have it...whatever that is....

And I like Justin. I think he's a great writer/producer/singer/performer.
