‘American Idol’ judge Simon Cowell weighed in on the news Clay Aiken has admitted to taking the anti-depressant Paxil to deal with the fame that came with being on ‘American’. “Oh give me a break. Let me have a choice, I’m going to work in a coal mine for 14 hours a day or I’m going to be a runner-up on ‘American Idol’,” Cowell remarked during a press conference for the FOX hit. “Give me a break, idiot.”
Video at TMZ.com has since been removed.
