Britain's Got Talent 2009 - Simon Cowell doesn't want another George Sampson

Thursday, 9 April 2009

Simon Cowell wants the Britain's Got Talent 2009 contestants to try something different.

He doesn't want to see lots of people trying to copy George Sampson and the other finalists from last year.

Simon told MyParkmag: "Variety, by definition, is that it's different. To me variety is something unexpected and I love that, I can't stand predictability!

"I have a feeling that this year is going to be a good one. This show has proven it is one worth winning and people that would never usually enter a talent competition actually want to enter Britain's Got Talent. They know that winning could change their life forever.

"There's always a danger with show like this, that everyone who applies is useless. But if we didn't think there was talent in this country, I wouldn't bother; it's as simple as that.

"So yes I do believe there is undiscovered talent out there in need of a break. That is why we do this show."

We just hope Simon and the other judges don't put any rubbish acts in the semi-finals like they did last year.

The rubbish acts just got booed and took up a place that could have gone to someone with talent.
