Waste of his time if you ask me. These shows are completely and utterly forgettable. It's not the type of thing where you go "Hey there, do you remember episode 8 of the third series of X Factor where Louis Walsh took off his toupee and Simon Cowell smelled it whilst he was judging a girl who had just sang "Total Eclipse of The Heart" who came on stage dressed in Sharon Osbourne's underwear that had butterflies on it which were made by Nicole Scherzinger's cousin once removed?"

I think entertaining with his own music and creating is far more inspiring and touches people far more.

All that other stuff is just waste of time TV filler if you ask me. ANYBODY could do it (it says enough if Nicki Minaj is judging aspiring singers!) so why would we want Meat to do that? Even if Meat isn't doing his own thing a better use of his time in my opinion would be for him to be at home, just to sit down and have a cup of tea and read the newspaper and give one of his dogs a little dogtreat. I think the world gets more peace and love from that than those TV shows.

All these aspiring singers think the world owes them a singing career whilst most of them don't have a percentage of the creative abilities that Meat or Steinman have. It is not something you can coach or teach. These people just need to find the drive themselves, the dramatic creative side. Looking for that on a TV show is very lame. Watching them fail surely is a waste of everyone's time? Let them get on and become something other than a professional singer. Don't let Simon Cowell tell you that anyone is any good. Go down to your struggling music store, search through some records and you will find wonders and beauty and love. Even most of the winners of these shows have become completely forgettable and are mostly just puppets and some seem to just not care about what they do at all (Leona Lewis). What is the point I ask?
