Hypocrisy, a prostitute and Simon Cowell
The other newspapers are slowly catching up on The Sun’s ‘exclusive‘ about the X Factor contestant who allegedly works as an escort girl or prostitute. The young woman called Chloe has apparently been spotted advertising her services online and was booked by the tabloid for an hour’s work at a hotel close to her Yorkshire home. She has denied the Sun’s story.
The Sun heaps scorn on Chloe’s ‘chav’ background, style of dress and single motherhood (I wonder how many of their own readership they have just identified?). But if the story is true, how did they identify her in the first place? Surely one of their staff must have been browsing online and then decided to call her up and enjoy her performance, before writing the nasty story?
But fair play to X Factor boss Simon Cowell. He said:
“We haven’t banned prostitutes. We can’t just take people off the show because they might do something that upsets some people. If a person applies to be on the X Factor it’s obvious to me that they want to do something better with their life.”
I don’t always agree with Simon Cowell, but I often enjoy his honesty. This is another occasion when he is right and the Sun is wrong. They are showing a different quality with a similar sound – hypocrisy.
