Why We Haven’t Heard From Phil Collins In A While

It’s certainly true that Collins has been the butt of many jokes throughout his career. The Rolling Stone article doesn’t even mention what might be the most famous example of this: the vicious skewering Collins received in the “Timmy 2000″ installment of South Park. In that episode, he’s portrayed as a smug, angry moron who’s too stupid to understand why everyone loves TIMMY! Furthermore, the children of South Park are only able to enjoy his music while high on Ritalin. When the effects of the drug wear off, Stan memorably proclaims “wait a minute, Phil Collins sucks ass!”

Of course, Collins could just as soon take his South Park mockery as a compliment. After all, Matt Stone and Trey Parker only made the episode when he beat them for an Oscar, after “You’ll Be In My Heart” — a track from Collins’ Tarzan soundtrack — beat out their “Blame Canada” for Best Original Song. Still, it’s obvious that Collins was effected by the insults, and while he never mentions this one specifically, the South Park treatment may have been one more bit of cruelty that lead to Collins current disenchantment with the entertainment business.

I hope Phil Collins could return to acting since he can't play drums much anymore...
