Sir Paul McCartney: I hate reality TV

Macca doesn’t enjoy watching people get humiliated

Sir Paul McCartney is releasing his new album under the name The Fireman

Sir Paul McCartney has hit out at reality TV shows such as The X Factor and I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!.

The veteran singer reckons the popular shows are crowding out more creative programmes.

‘You can’t turn on the telly without somebody being judged by 4 people, whether they are on ice, or on the stage or in the jungle,’ he says.

‘It’s compulsive viewing, but so is a traffic accident.’

Meanwhile, Sir Paul, 66, has opened up about his relationship with new girlfriend Nancy Shevell, 47.

‘I just like being in love,’ he tells The Sunday Times.

Macca finalised his divorce from Heather Mills, 40, earlier this year.
