Bowie would not win Voice says Paloma

- BY VAZ SAYED

PALOMA Faith has hit out at The Voice, saying even David Bowie wouldn’t do well on the TV talent show.

“I don’t think Bowie would have made it through, never mind my chances,” said Paloma, 36.

She was a judge on the show, which returned to ITV last night, and claimed its “fast track” process did not breed success.

“The time frame singers are given is unrealisti­c,” she told Attitude magazine.

“Ten years of singing in pubs with no one listening was vital to me as an artist.” She said she and fellow judge Boy George, 56, doubted the show.

“At the end of the final... it was live and he went, ‘We’re f ***** ’,” she said.

This year’s judges are Sir Tom Jones, will.i.am, Olly Murs and Jennifer Hudson.
