After asserting that her online feud with Miley Cyrus is over, Irish singer-songwriter Sinead O'Connor has now claimed that Simon Cowell has "murdered music."
During an interview on Ireland's 'The Late Late Show', the 46-year-old singer said that she feels sorry for the murder of music and rock 'n' roll, E! Online reported.
