Why This Man Is the Most Hated Talent Competition Judge of All-Time (and It’s Not Simon Cowell)

Piers Morgan is widely known as one of the most well-known British journalists in recent memory, but it hasn't stopped him from being a controversial figure on every talent show, podcast or news program that he's been featured on. His time judging on both America's Got Talentand Britain's Got Talent has remained a contentious topic for audiences, with some viewers appreciating his bluntness and abrasive attitude, while others found his negative approach to be unnecessarily cruel. Whether he was loved or hated by the audience, he never shied away from being honest, which often resulted in many contestants leaving the stage feeling humiliated rather than motivated. Morgan is a true villain in talent show history, and his lack of empathy and mistreatment of contestants has led him to be one of the most disliked personalities on reality television.
