Sir Tom Jones, one of the legendary musicians of our time, recently spoke out against Simon Cowell's coaching methods. Cowell, known for his brutal honesty and outspoken opinions, has rubbed some people the wrong way, including Sir Tom Jones. Despite his success in the music industry and over 60-year career, Sir Tom has experienced his fair share of criticism. In 2012, he joined The Voice UK as a coach, utilizing his invaluable experience to mentor aspiring musicians. However, after a brief break, he returned to the show in 2017 to compete directly with Cowell, who was the head judge on The X Factor and is still on Britain's Got Talent.
In a recent interview with MailOnline, Sir Tom shared his thoughts on Cowell's coaching methods, stating that he thinks the music executive can "take it too far." He elaborated, "those kinds of talent shows...by saying, 'Why are you on this show? What makes you think you can sing? Who told you you can sing?' I mean...Jesus." He also noted that the main difference between The Voice and other talent shows is that the contestants on The Voice can actually sing, as they have already been screened for their vocal abilities before the auditions.
When asked about the new season of The Voice UK, Sir Tom revealed that they have not found the next Taylor Swift, who he describes as "sensational." He will be joined by will.i.am, LeAnn, Tom Fletcher, and Danny Jones from McFly, making them the first-ever coaching duo on the show. Sir Tom and will.i.am are the longest-running panelists on the show and have no intentions of leaving their seats anytime soon. In fact, Sir Tom described his role as "the perfect job" during a recent interview with BBC's The One Show, stating that he loves listening to new voices and giving advice.
Sir Tom's recent comments come after he reignited his feud with Engelbert Humperdinck, whom he describes as a "p***k." He stated that there is nothing friendly between them and that they fell out years ago. Despite Humperdinck's attempts to reconcile, Sir Tom has rejected them, and it seems that there is no chance of them becoming friends anytime soon.
The new season of The Voice UK will premiere on ITV on August 31 and promises to be an exciting one with a shakeup in the coaching panel. Fans can expect to see some amazing new voices and a first-ever coaching duo. And if you have a celebrity story, video, or pictures, the entertainment team at The Agency would love to hear from you.
