“Simon, a lot of times (in his music-business career) he signs boy bands and stuff like that,” Covington says. “So for him to like someone like me or Taylor (Hicks) it’s out of the question. No matter what we do, he’s not going to like us. We’re just not his thing.
“When he gives me advice - well, it seems like he used to give advice. But now he doesn’t so much give advice as just try to put you down - `I can’t believe he said that,’ which makes people talk the next day. I don’t mean to sound rude about it, but you can help and then you can just sell a show. And he does a good job with selling the show.
Bucky had a few words to say about Simon Cowell. I think that Simon has set his mind on certain contestants . He didn’t have a lot of nice words for Bucky. He didn’t believe Taylor would make it to the TOP 24 either. Simon did the same for Clay Aiken. Bucky is such a nice boy. Too bad.
