I thought this was a singing contest not a newspaper column inch one. Paije is one of the best singers in the contest IMO - so why does Cowell put him on early, make comments that aren't related to singing ability and generally treat him unfairly

Is Cowell stupid or what - the lad has talent

Hm... he does seem to skirt the issue actually.
I like Paije -- didn't he suggest he was 'surly'.
I think in first live performance he said "You've come back without any surliness..."

I think Simon sometimes sees things in people that aren't really there. Unless of course, he expected him to be surley after having to come back and do another song.
He's got a good voice and it's about time they showed it off better.

Well then let's wind up Cowell by voting for Paije - it does seem to be a personal dislike by Cowell - probably because Paije is more talented than his favoured cash cows. It is bordering on the bullying from Cowell

Come on Paije - nail it tonight

Huh he must be very myopic - he actually thinks Cher and Katie are talented

Unless of course, he expected him to be surley after having to come back and do another song.

Let's wind up Cowell by voting for Paije tonight - he is singing Back to Black. What Cowell is doing to Paije is bordering on the bullying

Cowell's not stupid. He doesn't see a market for the lad there for will do his utmost to see he doesn't win over the more marketable acts. He wont shift albums in huge numbers so Cowell looks elsewhere.

Totally agree, prime example of someone seeing what he wants to see. Also, the fact that he's one of Danni's might have something to do with it...

Well then let's vote Paije tonight - and give Cowell what he truly deserves having to deal with some difficult questions on Xtra Fcator over his treatment of Paije

I take it you have deliberately overlooked Leona and Alexandra. Oh and JLS?

Are you suggesting Cowell's problem with Paije is down to race

Ah right so he only likes black artists and believes they can sell if he and his crony are mentoring?


This board amazes me.

*coughs* and Sinitta



This thread is close to a DS parody - bullying and racism in a dozen posts!

I never said Cowell was racist - I responded to a post by saying are you suggesting he was racist - I was clarifying a comment.

I just think he has a personal issue with Paije which may account for the unfair treatment he is dishing out with terrible performing slots - and catty comments about his clothes. That is perilously close to bullying

I have to hand it to Louis for praising Paije last week in light of him suffering a close family bereavement during the week. I thought it was really superficial of Simon to go on about what he was wearing when the guy got himself together to deliver a great performance on what must have been a very emotional time.

Maybe it's just genuinely because he doesn't fit in the industry today?
what kind of songs do you think he could sing which is relevant to todays charts (as that's what Si cares about)

Yes, I see now why you would think Cowell is a racist.

Paije wouldn't look so bad if they didn't dress him like Tito Jackson, it's so dated.

Louis and Dannii dealt with it well - was their any comments from Biffa and Cowell - no nothing by way of sympathy at all - they should have had the grace to do that

Paije is doing Back to Black by Amy Winehouse tonight - let's get behind him and vote for him - he deserves to stay - the tuneless chumps can go now
