Louis Walsh slates 'Idol' Michelle

Reigning Pop Idol Michelle McManus has come under attack yet again.

The singer was slated by show judge Pete Waterman who branded her "rubbish" and mocked her debut single sales.

Now Pete's old Popstars sparring partner Louis Walsh has turned on the heat, calling her a "larger version" of Jane McDonald.

"I don't think she's going to do well," Walsh told the GWR radio network. "I think she's like the new Jane McDonald, just a larger version. She'll be good for cruise ships - big cruise ships.

"I don't know why she won but she did, and we have to give her her 15 minutes, but I don't see a long career."
