My opinion is just be honest and say you enjoy it and want to do it if you want make the best of it while it is going. The prentence just seems so false to me.
Plus his reaction to Sharon Osbourne last week she wasn't nasty to him he may not have liked or agreed with her comments but he could have said he didn't agree and that was that but he has made personnel comments. He took into this show with his comments about her being in America too long. Hello America is surely more soleful than the uk!! You can almost see him rolling his eyes when Louie and Sharon are making their comments. Even when they are being nice he doesn't seem to care. I think he has so much self belief he doesn't respect their opinion. I think he should give them the courtesay of aleast seeming a bit interested (doesn't need to agree but be polite if you don't agree) after all they are successful in the music industry whereas he is not. I think he should respect them for that at least. Maybe Simon is winding him up though who know but after all he is old enough to think for himself.
Don't get me wrong I think he can sing and is talented.
He is a lucky boy as he has alot of loyal support that is going to give him a good chance of winning. It is the fans who make or break you and his fans appear to love him.”
You have contradicted yourself at the end, you have said he can sing and is talented then you say he has a lot of loyal support from his fans that will give him a good chance of winning
I agree with you in your first post, where you said you were out of touch with this board - Sharon's comments to Steve last week were completely over the top, especially the racist ones, I thought Steve kept himself in check very well and looked extremely hurt with what Sharon had said. Would you have preferred it if he had said nothing? Sharon's comments this week (not only to Steve) were more rational, last week her and Louis had made a pact to get Simon's acts out.
I'm supporting Steve in this competition, because I am a soul music fan and I believe he has a very good soul voice. He is also the only act I would buy an album of his work. I am not particularly interested in personalities, this is a talent competition, if I want to support personalities I will watch Big Brother.
But each to their own, if we all liked the same act there would be no programme
