SIMON COWELL'S COMMENTS SAVE A WOMAN'S LIFE

X Factor judge Simon Cowell may have saved a woman's life after he criticised her voice. Jacqui Gray attended auditions and sang her heart out (not literally) in front of the only man in the world to have nipple burns caused by a trouser waistband. Simon was unimpressed by her voice and commented,

"Something weird happens in your throat when you sing," said Simon, (not one of his better put downs). "Something happens to your throat when you sing. It is quite raspy. It sounds as if you have someone else in there."

Cowell and fellow judge Sharon 'Shitbox' Osbourne urged her to seek medical help, and as it turned out, Jacqui had an extremely aggressive and potentially fatal lung disease, which is now responding to treatment.

"Nobody I know had spotted the problem with my voice. It took a stranger to hear it and realise something was wrong," said Jacqui, who is now on the road to recovery.

Is this possibly the first worthwhile thing Cowell has ever done?

Not that Simon Cowell would ever be caught snuffling in anyone's bollocks, of course. I think, seeing as the series is starting to look stale now, he could use this new-found talent to liven up the auditions. "Christ, that was the worst rendition I've ever heard. In fact.... There's something not quite right. When did you last get tested for Prostate Cancer? I think you should leave straight away and get it checked out before you drop dead in front of us, you need to have your prostate looked at right away LOUIS SIT DOWN."
