Never actually thought about the original question here until now...

Simon Cowell

But this guy has turned your average Brit into a brain dead squealing zombie with all his bloody gawd damned awful TV shows, that for some strange reason the majority of the folk in this country tune into and eagerly run up their phone bills voting for the next talentless wonder to become a so called celebrity...
