Ego 101 with Simon Cowell
The only other person I know of that is more into themselves than Kanye “Ego” West is American Idol judge Simon Cowell. How Cowell and West differ in egotistical tactics is that Cowell at least has the decency to first speak of how talented the person in question is before he makes it about himself.
Britney Spears performed her new song “Womanizer” on Cowell’s British version of American Idol, X Factor, and its clear Cowell is a big Britney Spears fan. As a guest on 102.7 Kiisfm which is a local radio station in my town Cowell tells host Ryan Seacrest:
“Of all the artists I have ever had on any of these shows, there was more buzz, more excitement for this girl than anyone else. It was as if the president was on the show. I love it. I think if you’re going to be a star, be a star.”
Cowell goes on to say that it would be crazy not to invite Spears to be a guest on American Idol when it returns in January. He further says:
“I would literally have her on my show every week for the next 10 years.”
See how we’ve covered the part where he says something nice about the person in question? Now let’s read as he spins it around at the end and makes it all about himself.
He speaks on how Spears was a bit shy behind the scenes:
“To be fair, and this may be a bit egotistical, I think she was in awe of me. She was just staring at me. I said, ‘Touch me, I’m human,’ and I think that broke the ice.”
Oh Simon, please! And then what, she let out the deep breath she had been holding in as the shock of being in your presence wore off?
I wonder if Simon Cowell and Kanye West are friends. Can you imagine? That would be a sight to see, they’d be at a table talking music at first and eventually get into a fist fight, probably started by Kanye arguing about who was more awesome in this crazy game we call life. I’d probably buy a ticket to see that 
Please feel free to comment with your thoughts.

He is into Britney Spears??? Oh my GOD!! And I thought he was an intelligent man!! As bold as he is to speak his mind, I would think he would say Spears is crappy. LORD knows that’s what I think!!!
I think Britney Spears is a mediocre singer, but I do agree that she has star power, for whatever reason she can pack a house.
I think it’s because people today just don’t know any better. Britney doesn’t even have any redeeming qualities!! Her little sister is MUCH more attractive than she is! Everything about Britney is fake. Fake boobs, fake smile, fake face, you name it, it’s all silicone alley!!
I agree with Timmyfan. Britney Spears has no talent.
