In 2005 Simon Cowell made comments about Mandisa's weight after her successful audition. He said, "Do we have a bigger stage this year?" The comments and others drew the ire of NAAFA. Eventually, she told Cowell: "What I want to say to you is that, yes, you hurt me and I cried and it was painful, it really was. But I want you to know that I've forgiven you and that you don't need someone to apologize in order to forgive somebody. I figure that if Jesus could die so that all of my wrongs could be forgiven, I can certainly extend that same grace to you." Cowell apologized to her immediately saying that he was "humbled".
