Simon never stands

I admit it. I love American Idol. I know. Wrong demo and all that. But I do. And I also love the Brit version, which BTW came out first. I especially love it when a woman comes on stage, with more than one physical handicap, (like her eyebrows really need to go to the local threading salon –oh shut up you thought the same thing), and well, Vidal could do a little something with her hair, and she opens her mouth and sounds like 1000 angels coming down from heaven. Well, it’s really something. But I just wonder, why the HELL can’t Simon ever get his arse out of the seat and give her the standing ovation she deserved. Or maybe, he felt, standing would just prove, that well, her looks didn’t preface the voice. And making that assumption would be unfair. Wouldn’t it?
