Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber has slammed ‘The Voice’ contestants for being unable to sing.
The musical writer - who has previously been a judge on TV shows including ‘I’d Do Anything’ and ‘Any Dream Will Do’ - believes many of the stars on the BBC talent contest struggled with their pitch, causing him to be unable to watch.
He said: “I don’t know what the problem was there. Everyone was out of tune all the time. I just couldn’t watch.
“Unfortunately I have perfect pitch - it’s either one of the great advantages in life or the greatest affliction. When people sing out of tune, I just can’t listen.”
