Simon on Josiah: “We should have put him through”

As I’ve already told you, Josiah Leming—the contestant who auditioned for “Idol” while living out of his car and then famously dismissed the band during Hollywood Week—is working on his debut album for Universal Records.

And now, Simon Cowell is saying that just proves him right…

In an article on KnoxNews.com, Simon said, “We should have put him through.” Simon said Randy never supported Josiah and although she loved him, Paula voted against him as well. “I don’t know what they were thinking,” Simon said.
