For some unfathomably ridiculous reason, a whole loada people get really pissed off when non-British contestants appear on telly shows like The X Factor.
Like – did they not SEE that Hungarian shadow dance of BGT 2010? We still get a tear in our eye just THINKING about it.
This year in the firing line of some viewers is Saara Aalto of The X Factor, who is from Finland, fab in every way and now favourite to win the show.
And responding to the question of whether she should win, Simon Cowell said: " I don’t mind at all. People from different countries have won Britain’s Got Talent, it doesn’t make any difference."
"It shows what we are like as a show and what the audience is like – welcoming. I like that," he continud to The Sun.
<3 Simon <3.
Saara has also been reported as saying: "The competition is about singing and good performers. It doesn’t matter where I come from."
<3 <3 <3 Saara <3 <3 <3
Simon also took a swipe at Will Young (of all people).
Me-ow.
"I have respect for Ed (Balls) because anyone who can poke fun at themselves means they are a fun person.
"He didn’t take himself too seriously, unlike Will."
CRIKEY, SIMON.
The two have had a bit of bad blood ever since Will appeared on Pop Idol all those many thousands of years ago (2002).

There’s apparently going to be a HUGE twist in the next series of Big Brother. It is literally ridiculous how excited we are for Big Brother. Ridiculous.
The X Factor's Matt Terry on mentor Nicole Scherzinger: 'I’ll buy her anything she wanted'. Could these two REALLY be a thing? REALL? Probably not, no.
