Simon Cowell has opened his notorious mouth in the new issue of Entertainment Weekly in regards to Kelly Clarkson’s drama with her record label.
Kelly is not a puppet; she does not like to be told what to do. She could have gone the easy route, which is, you go with ['Since U Been Gone' producer] Max Martin — it’s a guaranteed success. She made it absolutely clear that she wanted to steer the musical direction on this record. You just gotta say, ‘You know what? This girl has given us millions and millions of sales.’ You’ve got to give her that opportunity. If it works out, fantastic. If she then decides she wants to do a pop album, every good writer and producer wants to work with her. Because Kelly will be here for 30 years. She has one of the best pop voices in the world right now. What she sold in the U.K., Europe, Asia had nothing to do with American Idol. It had everything to do with the fact that she made a great record and she’s got an incredible voice. She’s not a girl who got lucky in a talent competition; we got lucky to find her.

Kelly’s amazing, plain and simple.
yeah, she’s got a great voice. glad to see cowell has some kind of loyalty
Kudos to Simon for being human and speaking his mind. It really is the truth what he is saying about Kelly. She is a wonderful talent and I sense is that she is a good person. The music industry needs artists like Kelly who believes in her music not what they give her and she becomes the tool.
say it sister.
Amen, Simon Cowell
Simon is completely right!!
Simon always speaks the truth. =] I’m so glad Kelly isn’t a mindless idiot who would jump when told to do so.
yeah, even though he could say the truth nicer way sometimes.
