Simon Cowell Upset with Aiken
Posted on October 6th, 2006 in Simon Cowell
Simon Cowell has slammed American Idol runner-up Clay Aiken saying that he doesn’t think that Clay should have complained about the pressures of stardom.
After Clay Aiken fessed up and confessed that he’d been prescribed Paxil for his anxiety.
Last month, Clay insisted he has no problems stepping up on stage and performing in front of thousands, but he suffers panic attacks in more intimate settings.
But Cowell says, “Oh, give me a break. Let me have a choice – I’m going to work in a coal mine for 14 hours a day or I’m going to be runner-up on American Idol. Give me a break, idiot. He’s not working for a living – he’s being famous. No one put a gun to his head. Clay, whatever he may have said, would not swap what he’s got now for what he had three years ago.”
