  • i guess simon was informed that cook was the winner even before it was announced... simon should learn his lesson...

  • One thing about Simon is that he's honest. He wouldn't appologise just because he knew David had won.

  • sincere

  • It's really RIGGED !

    So sad when you win and you are not the rightful winner. It's like a curse and will be remembered for the rest of your life.

  • shes so annoying

  • The apology wasn't rigged so much as Simon backpedalled b/c it was clear that all polls showed that Cook had won. Archuleta was far superior on performance night, America didn't recognize that so Simon felt forced to backpedal to save face.

  • Well idk if it's rigged or not but i heard somethin totally different than what simon had heard david cook was way better than david a im here to tell ya.

  • I have never understood why the suprise as Cook was ahead of David for weeks in all the polls. I think it was the finale where David was unbelievable that people lost track of the fact that David was behind in votes. David is the best in my book and I am so delighted he is being so successful. I want to listen to him for years.

  • I dont know but it's more for what he apologized for. He said I apologize because I was verging on disrespectful. Um.... no he wasn't? He wasn't being disrespectful.. he said phenomenal, and not the right song choice. K... if that's disrespectful then he must be disrepectful to everyone every week

  • I dont think it was rigged in that anyone told him to say it, but I think he did get a bit nervous that last day...realizing he made a mistake. It's clear by the look on his face after Cook was announced winner how relieved he was.

  • I'm gonna say rigged. I don't nesscesarily think the voting was rigged but I think simon knew that cook had a better chance of winning than Cowell gave him credit for.
