Full review

I wish someone would put this awful man out of my misery. If it was just the case that you could choose to listen to him that would be okay because I would not. However, he seems to be as ubiquitous as water. He’s either singing one of is dreadful dirges on the television or getting himself on the front page of the newspapers for suing some one (yet again).

I wish I had been a lawyer at one of these trials. First questions: Would you consider yourself an honest individual? Why do you call yourself something other than your given name? Why did you insist for years that you were not a homosexual? Why do you pretend to be a man of the people when in fact you are just a spendthrift old git?

No wonder the modern world is so f***ed up. Eminem (another git) is considered a bad role model while this chump is lauded all of the bloody time regardless of what he does. Spend money like there’s no tomorrow yet make a charity record for the starving millions to get other people to hand over theirs? What a lovely man. Have people dressed up as boy scouts on stage despite years of abuse in the scouts? Give him a knighthood.

So what if he owns a football club? So what if he had a huge selling single lamenting the loss of another one of the super rich? So much for the French Revolution and sweeping away the aristocracy. Now people just bow and scrape in the presence of folk with lots of money who churn out indistinguishable dirges. Finished now.
