Simon Cowell

[Caran]

I was disgusted with his appearance on BGT last night. He chewed gum all the way through the programme and he had a faceful of stubble.

[douglas9401]

His sincerity cancels out his faults though.

[JimF]

I'd say that if you watch Britain's Got Talent, or any of the others, then this really is the least of your worries.

[Caran]

He should be more professional.

[Old_Geezer]

It was probably designer stubble.
(Maybe designer gumball too.)

[Apc2604]

I like stubble, and really don't like clean shaven men. but don't Iike seeing people chewing gum.

[Mamyalynne]

I'm surprised Caran, can't be the first time you've seen him chewing gum or sporting stubble, it's quite regular.

He is who he is.

[Caran]

Mamya I don't often watch this programme. So I was surprised at the lack of professionalism from him. He looked really scruffy to say the least.

[Mamyalynne]

Ah, sorry I thought you were a regular viewer, beg pardon.

[Spicerack]

It's not like he can't afford razor blades either, Caran. Typical.

My advice would be to avoid watching it again.

[DarceyK123]

I think he chews gum because he's a really heavy smoker.

[Caran]

Darcey that is no excuse, it looks awful.

[JimF]

"My advice would be to avoid watching it again."

Best answer, definitely.

[DarceyK123]

I totally agree Caran,

i was watching one of those Cops with cameras shows and was surprised how many officers were chewing gum, not at all professional, didn't think it would be allowed.

[Mozz71]

Maybe he just likes the look. He probably couldn't give a monkeys what anyone thinks about it, all the time people are watching his mind numbing shows, even if it's only to complain, his wallet is getting fatter.

[Electrochem]

I have to agree with the people who think chewing gum is not polite. It wouldn't be so bad if they did it discreetly, but a lot of people are like cows chewing the cud. To me it is bad manners.

[windywillow]

I agree with you, Caran. Slovenly was the word that came to mind for me.

[pastafreak]

Oh good grief.
He's always had that "look"...jeans and tee shirt, stubble. He looks like many in the music industry.
Also, some men prefer very casual...others are peacocks. I'd hate it if everyone looked the same.
I watched it and didn't even notice the gum chewing.

[royfromaus]

Should those of us who do watch BGT sit in a circle and introduce ourselves?

[Bobbisox1]

I watched it and only bemoaned the fact I hate magicians, I saw him chew gum but didn’t give it another though, maybe it was because he’s a heavy smoker, who knows!
