But seriously - he probably does deserve it - does an awful lot for "charridy that he doesnt like to talk about much" so good for him- I know he isnt well liked on DS but there are far less deserving celebs that will probably get a gong, simply for being alive for ages and boring us to tears (yes Brucie I mean you ).
What contribution would that be then?
It was always more likely to be the New Years Honours rather then the queens birthday one though.
i like him he does do a lot for charity with the xfactor singles and other stuff and he supports out country.
Yes, true. He's a good bloke and he is an industry king in money-making and generating terms.
But he has not contributed in any way shape or form to the music industry.
:sleep:
Not true he has contributed although I wouldn't suggest it was positive. Fix factor and more covers.
Absolutely right. Brucie yes...Cowell absolutely not. He has done nothing for music whatsoever.
What for exactly?
He should be up for karaoke crimes against humanity.
When the term 'contributed' is used, it implies that it's a positive thing. Cowell has not contributed positively to the music industry. He has done nothing good for what I (and a huge number of people I daresay) would understand as the music industry, as distinct from the self-promoting entertainment industry. So it is true.
If you want an example of someone who has contributed hugely to the music industry, then let's give a knighthood to Jools Holland, a man who has devoted the last couple of decades to ensuring that the best of quality music of every genre is recognised, promoted and given proper respect. That's what contributing to the music industry means.
I like that!
Zig and Zag.
If they don't warrant a Knighthood, then I dont know what does.
:eek::eek: 'Nice'
But......Sir Simon of Cowell! It'd make him even more big-headed than ever!
Aren't they about the same age? Rod Stewart should get a knighthood too IMO.
And I wouldn't be surprised if Beckham gets one too:yawn:
