HOLLYWOOD
- Music mogul
Simon Cowell
has acted quickly to defend himself against reports he rolled his eyes during an
American Idol
contestant's tribute to the students of Virginia Tech University on the TV talent show last night.
Internet sites went crazy after the incident with critics accusing judge
Cowell
of being insensitive to singer Chris Richardson’s message to friends caught up in the aftermath of Monday's campus massacre.
TV cameras captured
Cowell
making a sarcastic gesture as Richardson said, "My thoughts and prayers go out to Virginia Tech. I have a lot of friends over there... Be strong."
But he insists he wasn't listening to what Richardson was saying and was caught up in conversation with fellow judge
Paula Abdul
.
Speaking on show host Ryan Seacrest's Los Angeles radio show this morning,
Cowell
, who made his own tribute to the students of Virginia Tech during
American Idol
, admitted he was horrified to become a target of nasty stories.
He said, "You get this crazy story that appears that I rolled my eyes disrespectfully at Chris because he made the comment... The truth was, I had switched off at that point and I was talking to
Paula
.
"I did wanna clear this one up because this is a very sensitive subject. The irony was is that we did want to set the right tone on the show."
