14. Simon Cowell’s Criticism Did Some Good

Simon Cowell is known for giving harsh criticism on shows like American Idol and The X Factor, but his comments to one woman on the latter show actually saved her life. In 2007 Simon told Jacqui Gray that “Something happens to your throat when you sing. It is quite raspy. It sounds as if you have someone else in there, like you were choking on something.” Jacqui got it checked out and found out that she actually had lung disease.
