Meat replied to Michelle in his own style. This is from the entertainment section of AOL:
"MEAT Loaf has lashed back at Pop Idol finalist Michelle McManus after she complained he was ugly when she was compared to him.
The rock legend laid into the 23-year-old while brandishing a copy of the Daily Mirror on stage at a sell-out concert in Manchester.
Meat growled: "She's nothing like me. For a start she's three stone heavier.
"First time I appeared in Manchester in 1977 I was 70lb more than now and I was a sex god. She wishes she was me."
Pointing at Michelle's picture he added: "You're never going to be a sex goddess."
Michelle was compared to Meat Loaf by Pop Idol judge Simon Cowell and responded: "I don't think I look like Meat Loaf. I hope I don't... Meat Loaf is not attractive."
On ye go big man! Being from Scotland, I'd like to see Michelle win, but no one and I mean NO ONE inults my meat and get's away with it!
