Simon Cowell Defends Show From Animal Cruelty Accusations

Simon Cowell, currently a judge on Britain’s Got Talent, is defending his show from accusations of animal cruelty. Viewers at home were not pleased with French ventriloquist Marc Metral. The entertainer uses a muzzle-like apparatus on his dog, Miss Wendy, to make it appear as though she is talking. With people tweeting that Metral’s pet, which was noticably shaking, was being mistreated, Cowell said that the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals had given their approval before the segment aired.
