Simon Cowell: "The Oscars Reek of Snobbery"  2/25/08

Acid-tongued music mogul Simon Cowell has slammed Sunday (24Feb08) night's Academy Awards - because the Oscars "reek of snobbery".

The American Idol judge believes the ceremony - which exclusively rewards work on movies - looks down on TV series and television stars; and Cowell even claims he's viewed as "evil" in Hollywood circles.

He says, "They think I'm the antichrist. They don't like us TV people to be part of it - it's ridiculous. It reeks of snobbery."

And Cowell insists he wouldn't want to attend the star-studded event because he hates Tinseltown.

He adds, "I have nothing to do with the Oscars - and nor do I want to. I'll only go if someone has invited me.

"I hate the whole movie industry. It's so stuck up I can't bear it."
