Kurt Nilsen Not Offended By Hobbit Talk
Top of the Pops caught up with ‘World Idol’ champ Kurt Nilsen and asked the Norwegian if he is offended by being called a hobbit after winning ‘World Idol’ over Kelly Clarkson. “Well, I certainly didn’t come away with the impression that I was beautiful,” he joked. “But no, I didn’t get offended at all. I knew that they would criticize me for my looks, but they couldn’t criticize my music, and y’know, that’s why I did it.”
