Piers Morgan: The Bad Boy of Reality TV

by Lynn on February 4th, 2008

Piers MorganFans of Celebrity Apprentice know Piers Morgan as the polarizing force in the board room, and the perfect foil for Omarosa. People who love America’s Got Talent, know him as the blunt-talking, often even rude judge who made Sharon Osborne leave the stage and fling her fake eyelashes in anger. But did you know that he’s also a very successful journalist?

AskMen.com just published an article about Piers that will probably give you a lot of brand new insights into the plain-talking Brit. (Among many other things I learned about him, I was shocked to find that Piers and I share a birthday. Who knew?) Here are some little-known facts about him:

Piers Morgan’s run on America’s Got Talent made him a recognizable face to North American TV audiences, but his accomplishments go far beyond that. In England, he appears on the British equivalent, Britain’s Got Talent, with Simon Cowell and Amanda Holden. (Can you imagine Piers and Simon together on one show? Wow!)

There’s something admirable about being a guy who other people love to hate. Piers Morgan is as famous for his TV and writing endeavors as he is for acquiring enemies. Among his most notable foes is Jeremy Clarkson, host of Top Gear for British TV. When they were both invited for the Concorde’s final flight, insults and glasses of water went flying, and when they found themselves at the British Press Awards, a fistfight broke out after Piers published photos of Clarkson with another woman.

But don’t stop with these facts; be sure to go read the entire article here. And stay tuned this Thursday to see if The Donald fires him on Celebrity Apprentice. ;-)

    Piers should be no one’s hero, he is cruel and doesn’t appreciate how hard it is to get up in front of a crowd and subject yourself to criticism. Still, I love America’s Got Talent and am excited for Season 3 coming back tomorrow night, and I guess he doesn’t balance out the other judges.
