Louis Walsh has accused Simon Cowell of being a bully – after he tore into him on the X Factor.
The Mayo music manager was furious when Cowell called his boyband Overload Generation “shockingly bad” before voting them off.
And Cowell went even future – claiming “terrible” Louis was entirely to blame for the poor performance of his acts, which saw him also lose Blonde Electra.

Now the 62-year-old has opened up a bullying row – insisting that he is treated differently from Mel B and Cheryl Fernandez-Versini.
He said: “I’m always the fall guy on X Factor. You watch the tapes back. Simon never takes it out on the girls, you know.
“I think if he did it to them it would be perceived as bullying. Basically it is OK to bully me. He can do what he wants.”
