Hello.....I am partial to Fox's American Idol...mainly for Simon, since my design education and career has involved criticism both harsh and constructive as his....so he makes it worthwhile...well I am in Miami and last Wednesday, he was not there and the news is eluding to some sort of problem business-wise.......I was wondering if any of our neighbors in the UK know more than I do.....I take it from the credits he is the creator of the show....not to mention and multi-millionaire,,,,,,just curious if he is getting heck for his bruntness!!!!!
