Daniel Powter, singer of “Bad Day”, claims “famous people suck.” That’s right, this dude, whom I had no knowledge of until finding this article JUST NOW is shooting himself in his (possibly) famous foot.

“Believe it or not, it’s difficult to be that self-absorbed. Connecting with the audience is a bigger thrill,” says Powter.

Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t saying this kind of crap when you’re some kind of “rock star” so past the point of irony that it’s beyond reeking of shit? Powter probably also drives around in a car with one of those “Kill Your Television” bumperstickers.

Oh, OK this dude is just some wussy Canadian artist. According to a review on Amazon,

“Daniel Powter’s songs are awsome. I love listening to them on my way to classes in the mornings. I have heard “Bad Day” played at the end credits of American Idol. I think this is were most people have heard this song. I heard it on there and really liked “Bad Day”. So, I looked up who the singer was and bought the CD! The other song are good also!”

WOW! I’ll go right out and not buy this guy’s crap immediately!
