X Factor has produced a mixed bag of winners in the past. Some have been truly talented whereas others have merely been overexcited pub singers.

But now, Sting has shown his disapproval of Simon Cowell’s beloved talent show by saying that his show is full of karaoke singers. Sting has said that the talent show has put music back decades. He also said that the judges on the programme are more interested in their own careers than their artists’ and that they have no real talent.

Sting concluded his attack on Simon Cowell by stating that singers should learn their trade the old fashioned way; by singing in pubs and clubs.
