It finally happened. Simon Cowell’s least favorite American Idol contestant, Brooke White, was FINALLY voted off. Brooke said at the start "I’ll let the chips fall where they may," then today the chips were gone, and there were only crumbs left. Before her final number Brooke cried really hard, then fought threw her sobs to say:

"I just want to say thank you. It’s going to be terrible for me right now, but thank you."

I’d like to see Brooke perform, and I’m sure I will at a local coffee shop somewhere in Los Angeles.

Suleman Mirza and Madhu Singh performed some classic Michael Jackson movies on Britain’s Got Talent, which aired on ITV on Saturday April 26. Performances like this always get the crowd excited. The more fun the performers have, the more fun the audience has. Even Simon Cowell was having fun. Woohoo!

After David Archuleta performed the song You’re the Voice by John Farnham. Simon Cowell said:

"I don’t think that is you at all, and I’d be amazed if you chose the song yourself."

Sources say Simon’s comments were directed at David’s father Jeff Archuleta, who was banned from the Star Search lot because he was such a nightmare. Simon said the song sounded like something someone would perform at a theme park.

Simon Cowell was on Oprah yesterday where he surprised a family from Minnesota by paying off their mortgage. Simon learned the family wanted to help the family who have a 3 years-old daughter named Madeline who is being treated for cancer. Simon said to the family:

"As of this afternoon, your mortgage has been paid off. It doesn’t stop there. If there’s any problem, I’m her guardian angel now."

Simon (48) is worth a reported $200 million, and he drives a $1 million dollar sports car around Los Angeles. Simon is a good person to have on your side.

Simon Cowell may have been snubbed by the Academy Awards, but he puts it all into his unique perspective:

"They think I’m the Anti-Christ. They don’t like us TV people to be part of it – it’s ridiculous. It reeks of snobbery. I have nothing to do with the Oscars – nor do I want to… I’ll only go if someone has invited me. I hate the whole movie industry. It’s so stuck up, I can’t bear it."

As usual, what Simon says is right on the mark.
