Simon Says Britney Spears Got Lucky
An article in USA WEEKEND Magazine reports that Simon Cowell, the American Idol "tell it like it is" host, says Britney Spears just got lucky, that's all.When asked what it takes to be successful in the music business today, Simon says:
"It's talent, determination, selfishness, originality. And luck plays a big part in it. Take Britney Spears, landing that ... "Baby One More Time" song, only after TLC turned it down. You just can't account for that kind of thing when planning a career."
Looks like Britney Spears would not be the next American Idol if Simon had anything to say about it.
