Clay Aiken Bashes Rihanna, Points to "Pitch Problems"

by at .

Clay Aiken has gone all Randy Jackson on Rihanna.

In an interview last night with Andy Cohen, the former American Idol runner-up was asked about the state of pop music. Specifically: which current singer would NOT make it past the first round of the Fox competition?

"There's too many, I've stopped listening to them because they can't sing" Aiken replied, before ultimately coming down on Rihanna - who is NOT dating Ashton Kutcher, people! - because she has "some pitch problems."

Watch the exchange for yourself and then respond below:

How do you feel about Aiken's critique?

    I agree with you goddess nine, with the exetocipn of him beating her, even if she instigated the fight, he should have tried to get away from her, but then again I wasn't there, maybe he did try to get away. He has apologized and I even think Rihanna has accepted him apology. I certainly do and I am personally sick of hearing about it. I will continue to support him.

    Lisa M. just because one has fans doesn't mean they have talent! My generation, (I'm 21) wouldn't know talent if it slapped them in the face! I completely agree with Clay Aiken. I do not listen to pop music because there is no talent, just gimmicks! The word "artist" is waaaay over used this day in age. What ever happened to those who actually know how to play instruments and sing with their real, raw voice.

    I agree with Erin! I was thinking the same thing, have you heard her??? I liked some of her songs, catchy whatever, but after i hear them 700 times on the radio, i no longer like them . But she sings thru her nose. Shes very nasal which is why when i hear her whiny voice now i usually change the station. Granted, hes not very relevant but he has ears and expressed his opinion. And i agree totally.
