Simon has been exposed this year as someone who doesn't know talent in the way that people initially thought he did. He passed on both Taylor and Chris, got all hot and bothered for Pickler and claimed Ace had that "x" factor.

Taylor will do fine with the Boomers and late Gen X people and he will have a loyal fan base. That is a requirement for success and more so than being the flavor of the month. Simon just doesn't know how to market to Taylor's audience. With regard to Elliott, he already has a big agency working for him and has been meeting with a lot of producers this past week. He won't likely do well in Simon's eyes as a pop singer but that's pretty far away from what he wants to do anyway. And, if the two songs that were written for Kat and Taylor are any indication of what being associated with Simon, Simon and Clive will mean then E and Chris are much better off.

Kelly Pickler was a lot more honest with herself. She knew when she didn't do right with a song. Whereas Kat complained that the judges were so hard on her.

It was never Kat's fault if the song didn't go well.

I'll take Pickler with her honesty any day.
