NGAMAXESHA asithoba e-American Idol, uSimon Cowell, intshinga yemidlalo kamabonwakude, ophuthileyo amaphupha, wagqajukelwa yingqondo yakhe waza watshabalalisa nengqondo. Kwaye sasimthanda ngenxa yoko.
Yiyo loo nto isiphelo sobusuku banamhlanje sithatha intsingiselo enkulu kunexesha lokusilela elandulelayo eliya kubonakala libonisa. Ayisiyonto nje yokuthweswa isithsaba kunye nombhiyozo, njengoko iqhelekile - litheko lokuvalelisa elikrakra. UCowell uyemka ukuya kungenela olunye ukhuphiswano lokucula kumabonakude, kwaye kukhuselekile ukucinga ukuba iAmerican Idol ayisoze ifane.
Ke, ewe, abalandeli bayakulinda ngexhala ukubona ukuba ngaba uCrystal Bowersox okanye uLee DeWyze usithathile isithsaba se-Idol sesithoba. Kodwa baya kulila nokuphulukana nendoda edlale indima enkulu - mhlawumbi eyona inkulu - ekuguquleni umboniso ube yinto yesizwe.
Waqala ukubamba ingqalelo yethu ngoJuni ka-2002, xa i-Idol yaqalisa njengomboniso omncinci wokuziphakamisa wetalente owenzelwe ukugcwalisa iiyure zasehlotyeni. Ekuqaleni, samangaliswa. Nantsi i-Brit smug kunye ne-smug etshiza uhlobo lwe-barbs yentetho eqhelekileyo ebekelwe unomathotholo wokuthetha. Wayekrwada kwaye ethukisa.
Kodwa okukhona simamelayo, kokukhona sibona ukuba lo nyana wokudubula ngokuthe tye wayesoloko enyanisile - kwaye, ngendlela yakhe ye-offbeat, wayede ancede abo bakhuphisanayo. Okona kubalulekileyo: wayesonwabisa ngokungathandabuzekiyo.
Amanani ezithixo aye entinga. Isipaji sikaSimon satyeba ngakumbi kune-ego yakhe. Igama elithi karaoke libe ligama lekhowudi kulwaphulo-mthetho oluchasene noluntu. Kuwo wonke umabonwakude, isitayile sakhe se-caustic salingiswa, kodwa asizange soyiswe.
Kwaye ngoku, uzimisele ukuzisa uchungechunge lwakhe oludumileyo lwaseBrithani, i-X-factor, kwiFox ekwindla ka-2011. Kodwa ukuzama ukuthatha indawo kaSimon kubonakala ngathi uzama ukwenza i-omelet ngaphandle kwamaqanda. Wayesisithako esibalulekileyo.
UMnu uMlomo Omkhulu
Kwi-autobiography yakhe, uSimon uthi wakhupha isithuko sakhe sokuqala eneminyaka emi-4, exelela umama wakhe ukuba ujongeka njenge-poodle. Njengomgwebi we-Idol, waguqula ukubethelwa ngamazwi kwaba ngubugcisa bokudlala. Ezinye ii-zingers ezikhethiweyo:
Ukukhuphisana noRyan
Xa wayengakrazuli abantu abakhuphisanayo, uSimon wayehlala evula uRyan Seacrest, ebuza italente yakhe okanye emgibisela ngee-innuendos zesitabane, njengexesha umamkeli-zindwendwe wambuza ukuba unalo na icebiso kuMelinda Doolittle ekukhetheni kwakhe izithende eziphakamileyo:
USimon: Ufanele ukwazi, Ryan.
URyan: Ungaze uphume egumbini lam.
USimon: Phuma.
Ubukhulu becala, nangona kunjalo, uRyan wacaphukisa ijaji ekhohlakeleyo.
Kunokuba ube nenja encinci esileyo efuna ukutsiba ethangeni lakho kwaye uvele wayisusa inja, uSimon uxelele umntu obenodliwanondlebe. Ngamathub’ athile ngelizwi elirhabaxa kakhulu kufuneka uthi ‘hayi.’ Yaye leyo yindlela endiqhubana ngayo noRyan.
Abo bakhuphisanayo babuyisela umva
Ewe, uSimon wayeyigqibile, kodwa ngamanye amaxesha wayeyifumana kumaxhoba akhe.
Emva kokuxelela uKira Scott ukuba akayi kumqaphela xa ehamba egumbini, wafutha, Ngoko ke amahemuhemu kufuneka abe yinyani. Kufuneka ube gay. Kwaye xa umgqatswa omkhulu uMandisa wadinwa zizithuko zakhe malunga nobunzima bakhe, wamtsalela ngobubele (waze wacela uxolo).
Kwakukho u-Jonathan Rey, i-wannabe ekhohlisiweyo, owathi emva kokukhohliswa nguMnu. Nasty ngexesha lovavanyo, waya kwijaji yamgalela ngekomityi yamanzi. Ebambekile, watsho uSimon, bendicinga ukuba uyeza ukuza kundibamba isandla.
Iimpahla zenza indoda
USimon unokuba yeyona ndoda isisityebi ngexesha langaphambili, kodwa awunakukwazi ukubona kwiwodrophu yakhe esisiseko elusizi. Inkangeleko yesiqhelo kaSimon? IiJeans kunye nee-T-shirts ze-monochromatic ezibonisa i-hint yeenwele zesifuba.
Kwaye okwangoku, akazange athandabuze ukugxeka ukhetho lwabadlali be-Idol, kubandakanya uSiobhan Magnus, owathi ngeli xesha lonyaka wankqonkqozwa ngokuphindaphindiweyo ngenxa yefashoni yakhe ekude.
UMagnus wakhuza, Kumntu onxiba i-V-intamo yonke imihla, ngokuqinisekileyo unento eninzi eyoyikisayo yokuthetha malunga nesimbo sam.
Ebonisa icala lakhe elithambileyo
Ngamanye amaxesha, uSimon wayehlehlisa iinzipho zakhe aze asijonge. Kwakukho elo xesha kwiXesha lesi-5 xa wacela uxolo kuKatharine McPhee ngobunye ubusuku emva kokuba eguqulele ingoma kaWhitney Houston. ( … bendingenabulungisa …).
Kanye ngeli xesha lonyaka, wamthuthuzela ngobunono uKara DioGuardi emva kokuba echukunyiswe ziinyembezi kumdlalo wokhuphiswano kwaye wade wamanga kunye nomama ka-Andrew Garcia emva kokubona unyana wakhe enesithukuthezi.
Ewe, kuyacaca ukuba i-Idol Grinch inentliziyo-nokuba inokuba yisayizi ezimbini ezincinci kakhulu.
Inzala
Ingakanani impembelelo uSimon abenayo kumabonakude wokwenyani? Ngoku, wonke umboniso, kubonakala ngathi, une-Brit yayo ekhohlakeleyo, ethetha ngokuthe ngqo:
Indlalifa ebonakalayo
Akukho ndlela yokuthatha indawo kaSimon, kodwa, heyi, umntu kufuneka ayenze. Naba abambalwa babagqatswa esibathandayo:
Ngonaphakade intombi yakhe
Ukhulela kum njenge-zit engayi kuphuma, uPaula Abdul wayekhe wathetha ngobudlelwane bakhe benzondo yothando noSimon. Kwiminyaka esibhozo, obo budlelwane bongeza i-spice kumboniso, sisenza sobabini sihleke kwaye sihleke.
Kwasekuqaleni, ngokwenene babengakwazi ukumelana nomnye. Ngesinye isihlandlo, wade wamtshicela netshungama yakhe. Yehagu inezothe! Watsho eshwabula.
Ekugqibeleni, nangona kunjalo, umkhenkce wanyibilika, kwaye kwakungeyonto ingaqhelekanga ukubona aba babini bebambene ngezandla, benyumbaza, bewolana kwaye bejijisana ngokudlala.
Kwesinye sezona skiti zibalaseleyo zomboniso, uPaula, obuya ngobu busuku ukuza kuthi ndlela-ntle, kunye noSimon bajongana bephupha kwisidlo sangokuhlwa esikhanyiswe ngamakhandlela. Emva kokutyiswa kwamaqunube kunye nokukhotha imilebe, konke oku kukhokelela kwi-smooch enomdla- de, ewe, uSimon wavuka wafumanisa ukuba liphupha elibi elibi.
