Sycophancy is self-serving or servile flattery. It probably derives from the Latin sȳcophantia, meaning trickery, and consists of the fawning behaviour of useless two-faced self-seeking toe rag who attempts to win favour by flattering and pandering to the boss. A person who does this is known as a sycophant or more informally as ass-kisser, crawler, toady, lackey, apple polisher, boot licker, fawner, groveler, groveller, or truckler.

Run by Britain's own Satan Cowbell, Syco Entertainment is of the dodgiest companies around if you ask me. It's behind many shows with freedom-stealing practically slave contracts such as Britain's got talent and the X Factor, and a branch of this company that has recently been broken off for "unspecified reasons", Modest Management was responsible for many famous faces such as the band One Direction. Say what you want about the music, but there was something sketchy going on behind the scenes.
