COWELL: 'BOB DYLAN IS BORING'

Music mogul SIMON COWELL would be devastated if one series of US TV contest AMERICAN IDOL yielded him 10 BOB DYLANs - because he thinks the veteran singer/songwriter is boring. The sharp-tongued British judge admits he prefers American Idol winner KELLY CLARKSON's music to the legendary Dylan's output. He says, "If I had 10 Dylans in the final of American Idol we would not get 30 million viewers. I don't believe Bob Dylan would make American Idol better show. "A singing poet? It just bores me to tears. I prefer Kelly's music to Dylan's."
