well now. who’s got talent? who’s selling millions of records instead of making a living pimping Sham-Wow while taking potshots at real people? Would we really want to have the dirt dug up on how this guy got where he is?
This paul henry could show a little class and keep his mouth shut.But he does work for bbc so maybe not.
Why the hell is this crap in breaking news?
because there is pic of Susan Boyle sucking her thumb
Is this REALLY Breaking AND Front Page News?
I can’t believe it took until Post #4 to ask the question.
HE should be so “retarded”. Wonder what he sounds like when HE sings. Creep!
Sigh.....
What’s his excuse?
PAUL HENRY
Henry laughed as he described how Boyle was "starved of oxygen at birth" and suffered an intellectual disability.
"If you look at her carefully, you can make it out," he told viewers. "Here's the really interesting revelation: she is in fact retarded. And if you look at it carefully, you can make it out, can't you?"
Paul Henry is starved of looks as well as class.
If I may be so bold, Mr. Henry, Rod Stewart said it best:
Won't need much persuading
And I don't mean to sound degrading
But with a face like that you ain't got nothing to laugh about!
He’s mean, plain and simple.
why not? i say the same thing about 0bama
Looking carefully at your photo, Paul...
...I can make out that you're a spiteful little fag.
I’ve heard her speak on TV. She has a sense of humor and a good personality - she’s not retarded at all.
Just a haircut difference between them!
why is everyone freaking out?
she is retarded. it’s not a “mean thing” people are saying about her.
She was born mildly mongoloid and has additional retardation that was the result of extreme lack of oxygen to the brain.
That’s why people keep criticising the Britan’s Got Talent people.
They’ve made a star out of a mentally retarded person and that might not be the best thing for someone with a 8 year old child’s intellectual capacity.
