Producer

The Resume

    (May 17, 1960- )
    Born in Hastings, South East England, United Kingdom
    Manager of the Spice Girls
    Created and produced S Club 7 ('Miami 7,' 'LA 7,' 'Hollywood 7' and 'Viva S Club'), 'Pop Idol' and 'So You Think You Can Dance' (with Nigel Lythgoe)
    Founder of the 19 Entertainment company (1985)

Why he might be annoying:

    He created his own version of the Spice Girls, with no notable success.
    When creating S Club 7, he merged the roles of manager and creator to protect against potential mutiny.
    He is often confused with Simon Cowell.
    He has no musical background of his own.
    He had a hand in signing David Beckham to the Los Angeles Galaxy.

Why he might not be annoying:

    The Spice Girls fired him in 1997 — to their eventual detriment.
    The '19' is a reference to the title of a war-themed song from 1985.
    He was asked to manage at least two former Spices (Baby and Posh) in solo careers, both in music and television.
    He helped Annie Lennox to solo success.
