From Msn:

 

X Factor Rottweiler Simon Cowell has lashed out at pop star Jamelia after she criticised show finalist Leona Lewis.

 

Jamelia caused an upset when she described 21-year-old Leona's voice as "Mariah Carey circa 1990".

 

But Cowell and fellow X Factor judges Louis Walsh and Sharon Osbourne rounded on the singer.

 

Leona, who is battling to win Saturday's final against fellow contestant Ray Quinn, 18 also hit back at the so-called "nice star of pop".

 

Leona, from Hackney, London, the first female to get to the final of the singing contest, said: "I didn't actually read about her comment but I heard about it. She's another female artist and someone asked me a question about her before all of that. I said she's a female British artist and I support her. I support any up-and-coming artists.

 

Cowell, the only judge with acts left in the final, said sarcastically: "Jamelia's been fantastic. She's a one-hit wonder and she's got all the advice.

 

"My advice to her would be to have a second hit then have an opinion.

 

Cowell, who is known for his acerbic put-downs, added: "What annoys me about that is that when you get the chance to be successful and then someone else has the chance to be successful you should show them a bit of support, not that it bothers me.

 

Osbourne said at a press conference to mark the ITV show's final week: "Can I just ask something? Who is Jamelia? This is all going over my head." Walsh replied: "She's had one hit.

 

And he added: "There are much bigger stars than Jamelia."

:rofl: Its like X-Factor United

They really do protect their acts don't they. :lol:

bloody hell :rofl: And Jamelia didn't even say anything :lol:

She was right about Emma though

 

I read somewhere her new album charted at #68 or something :o despite all the hype

It's a bit rich anyone involved with X Factor calling Jamelia a one hit wonder, when most winners of that show get two singles if they're lucky.

 

I agree that she really should stop bitching just to get attention though.

Osbourne said at a press conference to mark the ITV show's final week: "Can I just ask something? Who is Jamelia? This is all going over my head." Walsh replied: "She's had one hit.

 

And he added: "There are much bigger stars than Jamelia."

 

so Jamelia not v well known in America, I suppose SO was living in America when Jamelia had all her initial success. I suppose she's not that well known over there then??? but then again suppose if your Black, British and Female your probs gonna be always seem as second rate towards the output of the American R&B stars, which the USA has got loads.

 

no wonder Jamelia came back with a record that was very AC. (a record that i bought btw)

Simon Cowell can hardly go on about her being a one hit wonder. She has had a longer carear then any of the contstants from the X Factor will ever have :rolleyes:

Jamelia's had seven top ten hits. If anything, she's a seven-hit wonder.

How hypocriticial of Jamelia!

oh my days HELLO?! Jamelia NEVER said anything :P

Jamelia's career is going DOWNTOWN also :)

Essentially, she's right. And Leona can't be that good anyway. If she was she wouldn't need to go on a lame tv talent contest to get a record deal :rolleyes:

 

You could say that about Kelly Clarkson & look at her worldwide success.

 

Emma and the Spicies jizz all over Jamelia

 

sorry but Jamelia is $h!te

That girl is too big for her own boots. -_-

These pop stars really should learn to keep their mouth shut. How many people has Jamelia slagged off now? She is risking alienating what little fans she has this way.

'Her career is going downtown'

 

As is yours you ****ing $l*t.

How can you sit there and put someone else down when you've made a tonne of $h!t songs and are flopping like an old man's genitals? :rolleyes:

God to think I felt a bit bad for her cos she did $h!t last year - forget it now the stupid whore can rot - at least the Allen can do it with STYLE. :smoke:

And I'm not defending Leona or Emma Bunton - just makes me laugh how she can say such things when she can't even shift 100,000 albums bless her.

Get back to me when you've sold millions worldwide like Emma & The Spices whore.

Jamelia just slags everyone off for attention, like on 'Never Mind The Buzzcocks' she calls Javine a slag! We all know Leona is way better than Jamelia don't we you lot?!?!

Hahaha too right!
