Kaiser Chiefs slam TV talent shows

added: 15 Jun 2012 // by: Music-News.com Newsdesk 

The band don't believe in reality TV shows anymore, because they're wary of where the contestants come from.

Speaking to BANG, drummer Nick Hodgson said: "The thing is, they have gotten a bit suspect now. It's like, 'Hang on a minute - these people haven't even just turned up to auditions!' So you sort of stop believing them."

But he admitted he would consider sitting in a judge's chair on such programmes alongside stars such as Simon Cowell, will.i.am, Tulisa Contostavlos and Gary Barlow if he was offered enough money.

He said: "It depends what the money was like. Seriously, if they want to pay me £1 million to sit there and s**g everyone off then I'd do it."

Bandmate Nick 'Peanut' Baines added: "He does it for free most days.'
