Simon Cowell Takes Playful Jab at Jeremy Clarkson Over BGT Choir

Simon Cowell couldn't resist a cheeky dig at Jeremy Clarkson during the semi-finals of Britain's Got Talent. The Hawkstone Farmers' Choir, founded by the former Top Gear host, secured a spot in the final after performing Bastille's Pompeii.

Earlier this year, the choir earned Amanda Holden's Golden Buzzer with a rendition of Elbow's One Day Like This. Jeremy, who co-owns Hawkstone Brewery, was visibly emotional at the time, thanking Holden and praising the farmers.

During the semi-final, Simon told the choir: “You’re not a professional choir, however I love what you stand for. It might be quite annoying to see Jeremy Clarkson‘s smug face, that’s the only downside. He’s a friend of mine. However more importantly this is about you and you did brilliantly well congratulations.”
