I could have a degree in music and come on the show, and Simon could still say 'You stink'.
I collect watches because I'm always late, and I need to know exactly how late I'm going to be - in order to come up with a good excuse.
I found that a bit unfair. However, I did feel quite liberated when I left. I'm very grateful to the show - it revived a flagging career, but I'm glad to be away from it now.
