Ellen DeGeneres American Idol Judge – On her Thursday show Ellen DeGeneres announced that she is the new full time American Idol judge replacing Paula Abdul who will not return to the show for 2009.
Ellen Degeneres is the new American Idol judge and the sentiment seems to be split between those who think she is the perfect choice, and those scratching their heads wondering why she was chosen.
“I have a big announcement to make. No one knows this. I just finally got the OK … just moments ago to announce this to you today…I am going to be the new judge on ‘American Idol’, DeGeneres told her audience while taping Thursdays show on Wednesday.
“I could not be more excited to have Ellen join the ‘American Idol’ family,” Simon Fuller said. “Ellen has been a fan of the show for many years, and her love of music and understanding of the American public will bring a unique human touch to our judging panel. I can’t wait for this next season to begin.”
Ellen DeGeneres as an American Idol judge should bring some needed humor to the judges panel, and it should be interesting to see her put Simon Cowell in his place with humor instead on inane screeching like Paula and Kara.
Do you think Simon Fuller made the right choice by choosing DeGeneres? Tell us what you think.
And that’s the latest chatter about Ellen DeGeneres American Idol Judge.

She’ll be funny and that’s one think American Idol has never had.
September 10th, 2009 at 4:06 pm
I was never going to watch Idol again after Adam lost. Now that Ellen will be a judge I will tune in every single week to watch the witty and humorous reactions she has……who cares about the contestants or other judges.
September 10th, 2009 at 4:25 pm
We now have 3 Men and one Woman. They should have
put her Wife on the show.
September 10th, 2009 at 5:11 pm
An inspired choice. I was getting so tired of the endless histrionics from Paula toward Simon… humor with humility is Ellen’s gift, and her addition will really increase the show’s popularity.
September 10th, 2009 at 6:33 pm
I think Paula is way better, why did she quit?
September 10th, 2009 at 6:38 pm
Ellen Degeneres is absolutely the perfect choice for an “American Idol Judge”. Ellen is compassionate, kind and real. Her comedic style is always very funny and tasteful and never hurtful. The perfect personality to go up against Simon when he is being unnecessarily cruel to the idol contestants. I can’t wait to see how those two interact with each other….if anyone could put Simon in his place it will be Ellen. I think Ellen will push up their ratings even higher.
September 10th, 2009 at 7:45 pm
I FEEL THIS WILL BE A GREAT ADDITION TO THE SHOW.
I DO NOT WATCH ELLEN, BUT THEY NEED SOMEONE ON THERE THAT JUST LIKES MUSIC AND DOES NOT PICK THE SONG OR THE PERSON TO PIECES. GOOD CHOICE IDOL.
September 10th, 2009 at 7:47 pm
It will quite surprising, humorous – and a comic relief to all this seriousness – Simon look out!
I think Ellen will add “our” perspective to the show. Not being from the side of music – she will be a muchly needed prospect the show hasn’t had – much laughter.
She will be a valuable addition. I am looking forward the first showing with her involvement.
September 10th, 2009 at 7:58 pm
ELLEN WILL BE FAB-U-LOUS! I CAN’T WAIT FOR HER TO MEET THE “ODD BALLS” WHO TRY OUT FOR IDOL! HER QUICK WIT AND GREAT SENSE OF HUMOR WILL ADD MORE TO THE SHOW. SHE DOES LOVE AND APPRECIATES ALL MUSIC AND I BELIEVE SHE’LL BE A GREAT MIX WITH THE EXISTING IDOL TEAM.
September 10th, 2009 at 7:59 pm
Why is everyone having a hard time with this???? Sure we will miss Paula….but, Ellen…..she will make us all smile and that is something the show and the whole world needs…give her a break damnit!!!!!!! Ellen, you go girl, and best of luck…………laura
September 10th, 2009 at 8:10 pm
I am sorry Paula will not return to American Idol I really really liked her she made that show,, but I for one Do NOT like Ellen period and will not watch American Idold ever again..
September 10th, 2009 at 9:35 pm
I love her! I think she will be a fresh approach to American Idol – it had become so predictable and ho hum – it is obvious from her own show (her dancing) that she loves music – and I am excited about her taking the spot. I always liked Paula – and who knows what really happened there – but things change, you have to move on, and in my opinion, this was a brilliant move on the part of the producers of American Idol. Move over Simon (and I LOVE him also!) – you have met your match in Ellen! I MAY just start watching the show again!
September 10th, 2009 at 10:58 pm
This show is now DONE. I thought Ellen was a comedian. Put her on Last Comic Standing. Not a singing show. What are her qual’s for music other than being just a fan. I thought the judges were suppose to give the singers advice on how to succeed being a singer? I dont watch AI for the comedy, I like to hear the kids sing. The 4th judge last year was a failure. They used up more minutes of the show judging, then had to rush the singers at the end of the show and didnt have time to adequately judge those kids because they were out of time. If they werent gonna pay Paula, they should have not added any new judge. Just go back to 3 w/Kara, Randy and Simion.
Bye bye A.I.
September 11th, 2009 at 12:23 am
Ellen is a horrible choice. Can you imagine being a contestant and her having the deciding vote for you to go to Hollywood. A lot of dream’s will be chattered by a COMIC! I really don’t find any logic in having Ellen as a critic. REALLY DISAPPOINTED!
September 11th, 2009 at 2:26 am
Isn’t it bad enough that her wry humor is sickening on a show where she had no music experience? Now sitting next to Kara is going to make her awful uncomfortable and turn off the Christain right. Guaranteed!! Pitiful
September 11th, 2009 at 8:14 am
I guess I won’t be watching American Idol anymore. This Degeneris disgusts me.
Just like the Donny and Mary Osmond, the Jackson family and her, they should just dissapear from the entertainment show biz.
September 11th, 2009 at 9:57 am
I have not watched American Idol other than a brief moment because I consider the show to be a “set up”, it appears they bring in some of the worse people to make fun of and the Judges are rude or non-descript. Now that Ellen will be on the show I will give it a few minutes of my time to check it out to see if it is actually entertaining. FYI, I have never been attacted to women. To clarify, some ignorant people would like to point out that she is a lesbien as if that makes her a bad person. Grow up America. Where do these ignorant people come from – even more ignorant parents?
September 11th, 2009 at 10:08 am
Terrible choice for Idol judge!! Several acquaintences of mine already reported they won’t watch it with her as judge.
September 11th, 2009 at 11:14 am
I’am looking forward to having Ellen DeGeneres as a judge, I think she will add to the show and make it more popular as long as it does not turn into a comedy show, we must remember that it is a talent show.
September 11th, 2009 at 11:22 am
I think it is great. I love Ellen she is funny, not afraid to give her opinion and I love what she stands for and hopefully will be brutally honest like Simon well at least in a nice way.
September 11th, 2009 at 11:40 am
I think that is fantastic! She will surely add to the show. Can’t wait to see her and Simon making their comments about each other’s judging capabilities!
September 11th, 2009 at 12:48 pm
I think it is very important for any judge, not only Ellen DeGeneres, to have an experienced, musical background. In order to judge appropriately; how can you do this on humour background only? If she has/had the musical background; then I say, with her humour added to it all; its a great plan..however, if no musical background, this isnt very fair to the contestants who are looking for some valuable advice; during performances.
If she has no musical background..then who next to replace another experienced judge…Oprah Winfrey??
September 11th, 2009 at 12:52 pm
I think Ellen DeGeneres is a good choice. I can just imagine what the show is going ot be like now. Funny and Fun to watch.
September 11th, 2009 at 1:01 pm
i think she will be a perfect addition to the show.Congrats Ellen
September 11th, 2009 at 1:40 pm
What does she know about singing?, and who cares if she is funny the show dont need funny my dear it needs serious judges that know what they are doing and not a comedy
September 11th, 2009 at 1:45 pm
YEAY!!! I love Ellen, she will make a GREAT addition to the team. Paula was good but Ellen will be a BLAST!! soooo excited for this season.
September 11th, 2009 at 1:59 pm
“To each its own”… everyone has their own style, touch, ability… and variety is the spice of life… give her a chance!
September 11th, 2009 at 2:02 pm
I think Ellen will be Awesome on the American Idol. Simon made an excellent choice. Way you go Ellen and Simon! The show will light up like a star!
September 11th, 2009 at 2:27 pm
No one will ever be able to replace Paula and for sure not Ellen. Ellen has nothing to make us interested and I bet the show will loose lots of viewers because of Ellen it is not Popular even if she has her own artificial show.
September 11th, 2009 at 2:51 pm
Simon is a smart man. he knows what he is doing.
if he thinks she can add something to american idol
then she will.
September 11th, 2009 at 2:56 pm
I LOVE Ellen Degeneres but I think she is a poor choice to judge. She is accustomed, and so are we, to her being the frontline act, the main attraction. I think that will continue and this will distract the audience from what should be the main attraction – the contestants. The existing judges made their marks in the context of the show and that is why Paula Abdul works so well. The chemistry between her and Simon Cowell cannot be replicated, and this is was entertainment in its best form – unplanned and unadulterated. Ellen will bring her comedy act, and it will be American Idol – with the Ellen Degeneres Show… too bad.
September 11th, 2009 at 3:26 pm
Wow! Ellen, going to judge singing talent. I was kinda figuring she might be doing “Play by Play” action of the NFL games. I would think she’d have the same amount of knowlege of Football as she will about judgeing singing talent… Who makes these know nothing decisions Simple Simon Cowell??? And that’s all I have to say about that!
September 11th, 2009 at 3:41 pm
she is perfect, we need more laugher in this World,
than, anger.
She will be a great judge, to the singers, because she loves music.
September 11th, 2009 at 3:50 pm
I will not watch American Idol as long as that idiot ellen ,Notice no capital she does’nt deserve it, is on the show. If I do any thing at all it will be to record the progran and only watch the singing. I have absolutly no desire to even here her mouth or have to look at her face.What a major mistake American Idol has made.
September 11th, 2009 at 3:55 pm
well thats indifferent!
September 11th, 2009 at 4:17 pm
Hi I am thrilled that Ellen is joining the show, Simon had better watch out she is a staight shooter and this might be what Idol has been needing for a while now. I never miss Idol especially American Idol it’s my favorite show on tele. Way to go Ellen we are cheering for you in Victoria BC Canada
September 11th, 2009 at 4:37 pm
I hate American Idol’s for dropping Paula. I come from a hugh family 12 brothers & sisters and we have all decided to never watch again. I pray the show fails this season. Paul you are very much missed already. Fans stand up for whats right and fair. The show is all of the fans watching and if we stop, there money stops as well. So many americans are out of work because of employers such as Paula’s. Do the right thing boycott the show!!!
September 11th, 2009 at 4:37 pm
Ellen…..will bring so much to a dying show….
She has an awesome personality as we all know…
All the best in this new endeavour Ellen
September 11th, 2009 at 4:39 pm
Whats wrong with speaking the truth
September 11th, 2009 at 4:51 pm
She’s funny but what does she know about singing and how can she give a professional opinion with no recording/singing background?
September 11th, 2009 at 4:56 pm
I don’t watch Idol in the beginning b/c I think it is boring. I will start watching when they begin to elimate people. Now that Ellen is one of the judges I’ll be watching from the beginning. They made a good choice.
September 11th, 2009 at 5:27 pm
oh my gosh, I cant wait to see her on the show, it should be so funny with her on it!! The veiws will probably sky-rocket!!!
September 11th, 2009 at 5:27 pm
I AM BOYCOTTING IDOL I LOVE THAT SHOW BUT I THINK ITS A MISTAKE TO HAVE HER BE A JUDGE. SHE DOSENT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT MUSIC. FUNNY I GUESS THATS A MATTER OF OPINION. I HOPE SHE DOSENT MAKE ANY GAY JOKES.PAULA WE MISS YOU YOUR THE BEST.
September 11th, 2009 at 5:57 pm
What a disaster!!! Ellen is terrible as a host, as an actress and just in general. well, Americal Idol just lost another viewer here
September 11th, 2009 at 6:19 pm
I will not watch Idol anymore. I do not accept homosexuality.
September 11th, 2009 at 6:21 pm
I do not see how she is qualified to rate the performances “technically” Like Paula would have been able to with her background.
Not a huge “Ellen” fan at the best of times…I will just start watching so you think you can dance instead now.
September 11th, 2009 at 6:28 pm
Well – they at least did one thing! EVERYONE is talking. I felt it humorous to go through the comments… and at the end – their viewer ship will be UP this season. The homophobes will not watch, but those who didn’t care for the show prior to this switch will.
I am indifferent, but know I will be more likely to pause while channel surfing to see what fun Ellen will add!
Another smart marketing plan from the obviously business savy Simon Cowell!
September 11th, 2009 at 7:46 pm
Best decision that show ever made! I don’t want much tele but I will now!
September 11th, 2009 at 7:56 pm
Really? Couldn’t they have found someone a little more qualified? At least Paula had some background in music and a sense of familiarity with the music business……Why not select someone like Cher, Cyndi Lauper, Pat Benatar, Blondie or someone that has some sort of musical background. When I think of Ellen, I think of a lame talk show host that cannot dance and has very little talent!! Oh well, another reason not to watch American Idol!!
September 11th, 2009 at 8:59 pm
I think that Ellen is a good choice, Paula was nice, but she was annoying sometimes, also sometimes she was awkward to listen to, just because she didn’t make much sense most of the time, although she was nice to the contestants, but I think Ellen will be quite nice also. Ellen also will provide a new perspective, and she will make some entertainment with Simon, they will be great, Paula and Simon lost some of their entertainment because Paula just kept blabbing on. Overall it is sad to see Paula leave, and it is too bad that she did not get what she wanted as far as salary, but I think Ellen is a great replacement.
September 11th, 2009 at 9:38 pm
Sad to see that the American Idol show has come to this! I feel that they have made a terrible choice in choosing Ellen Degeneris as a replacement for Paula Abdul. When you start a show such as American Idol with certain key players you have to keep those key players in order for the ratings to stay up people get accustomed to seeing the show the way it was originally designed, the show will not be the same they should have just paid Paula the money she wanted to stay. Sort of like when CSI which was a major show on television with very high ratings all of a sudden eliminated their major players and now the show is just not the same the ratings on American Idol will definitely drop hugely. It should be Paula that is sitting on that Judges bench for every season of the show. Bad judgement call on this one.
September 11th, 2009 at 9:56 pm
It is a shame that Paula is not returning this year, she will be missed for more than one reason. I can then of course understand the reason for a replacement,-but selecting Ellen. You think that the judges panel needed humour,-I didn’t realize that we would be judging comedians only this upcoming season. I am of the opinion that the show will not be the same, and due to this change, am not sure that this will not be the demise of a rather valuable program of seeking talented people. Time will tell of course on the success of the 2009 season.
September 11th, 2009 at 10:10 pm
I THINK ELLEN WILL BE A BREATH OF FRESH AIR ON AMERICAN IDOL! SHE’S SMART AND WITTY AND LOVES MUSIC!
CONGRATULATIONS, ELLEN!
September 11th, 2009 at 10:24 pm
what does a muff muncher know about music, me and alot of people are not going to watch AI anymore. she is a lesbian, it is a family show, having a lebian is bad publicity for our children
September 11th, 2009 at 11:17 pm
I love AI but No More idol for us If Ellen is on the show. It will not be on in this house!!!!!!!! Sound’s like many house’s wont have it on
September 11th, 2009 at 11:27 pm
I think it is a stupid choice considering not watching yep I’ve made my mind up,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, NOT WATCHING as if anyone cares.I really loved the show but now what’s next ? i am not a homophobe
September 11th, 2009 at 11:32 pm
This is a wonderful choice to replace Paula {who should have never been let go in the first place}…..I am still giddy about the official 6 feet under burial of this show…Now instead of looking at a beautiful woman who understood music talent,,because she was one….Instead we get to look at someone with ZERO QUALIFICATIONS and well the OBVIOUS other BS…..I will not CORRUPT my kids by letting them watch a SHOW that CLEARLY PROMOTES a FREAK…….
September 11th, 2009 at 11:34 pm
A great decision. Ellen is a superb host and very caring and honest which will add a different perspective to the judging. So many people think she doesn’t have musical expertise to judge – don’t they forget that millions of non musical people judge who will stay each week!!!
September 11th, 2009 at 11:40 pm
now there are 3 dicks on the show…I’m not watching anymore, this is one lesbian I do not want to see on tV.
September 11th, 2009 at 11:57 pm
Ellen, you are the best choice for the American Idol Judge position. I love your show and watch it whenever I can. I was off work all summer on sick leave and watched the shows almost every day, I know some were repeats, but can’t always watch when at work ofcourse. Good luck to you and can’t wait to see the new American Idol show, to see and hear all you will bring to that program. I know how much you love music and this will bring a new dimension and prospective to the show. Look out Simon, don’t get jealous!!!!!!!!! I want to know where you will be sitting, this will be very interesting on the panel, the seating will make a difference to the judging, I think!! Will Simon pick on you like he picked on Paula Abdul, I don’t think so, in the same way? Congratulations to you, everything you do turns to GOLD, this show will as well. I loved you on the So You Think You Can Dance, your humour was the best for the show, it showed a lighter side to the judging aspect.
Maggie
September 12th, 2009 at 12:38 am
i’m done. Paula deserved what she was asking for. it’s official. ‘JUMP THE SHARK” done. Ellen, god bless her is there for schtick. it’s a sad day. love to hear Simon’s off the record take on the disintegration of the cash cow. i’m in mourning. “it’s over Johnny. it’s over!”
September 12th, 2009 at 1:18 am
This American Comedian is a national BORE!!!
She is not a person on interest for MANY!
She is GAY and NOT FUNNY! Her cheerleaders
on her live show are paid to cheer…haahaa
September 12th, 2009 at 1:21 am
I for one think Ellen will be a breathe of fresh air for Idol.
Look at America’s Got Talent….some great acts on there, and the judges are Piers, Sharon & David Hasselhoff – gimme a break! Ellen is no dummy, has a great knowledge of music, and is just too funny for words. She will be a great addition, and a good counter for Simon.
September 12th, 2009 at 2:20 am
when Ellen was a guest judge on ‘So You think you can dance’ she put a couple of jokes in her time that were not funny at all. it may be refreshing to have a music lover, rather than just professionals in the business, for judges, but last season there wasn’t time because the 4(four!) were talking to long. they should have just had Randy, Cara and Simon. so we don’t have time for Ellen’s one-liners!
September 12th, 2009 at 2:24 am
I thought that losing Paula could really affect the ratings as I think poeple like the chemistry with Paula and Simon. I could be interesting with Ellen. A fresh face with a different perspective. I think it could work. I will always miss Paula but things change and life goes on.
September 12th, 2009 at 2:52 am
I will not watch. I think four judges are too many! I don’t care for the new judge last season, Kara DioGuardi. I thought she was a waste of time. Now, with the addition of a judge with no music background at all, I think the show will be terrible. I think this show is headed for cancellation!
September 12th, 2009 at 3:02 am
The lesbians seem to be happy with this decision
September 12th, 2009 at 3:04 am
Adding Ellen just goes to show that this show; American Idol, is a joke. Now they have 2 clowns(Ellen & Simon). What a combination. What a shame.
ha! a funny judge!!!
September 12th, 2009 at 8:50 am
As a comediam and a lesbian I have the best of both worlds watching American Idol now. Ellen has shown that you can bounce back from major depression and has been an inspiration to all. Best of luck to you Ellen and congradulations on your marriage.
September 12th, 2009 at 9:19 am
Ellen will be a vote from the gay and lesbian community. They want to get a winner before the show gets cancelled. But don’t get it twisted America, the media is so fooled and afraid of this community that they bend over backwards to appease them. Note how news releases are always bent in tafavorable ligth concerning this issue. Even when what’s in our pants tells tall nof us they are a confused bunch of folks. What we need to do as viewers is watch who the sponsors will be and not purchase any of their products. When the sponsorships loose in their pockets they start shouting for changes and the network has to make a decision. Loose money or give in to the gay and lesbian community. Best to believe they want to keep their dollars.
September 12th, 2009 at 12:23 pm
I think Ellen made a wrong choice in her lifestyle and any vote on American Idol by her would be wrong and negated in my opinion………………..
September 12th, 2009 at 12:27 pm
Ellen,
Get out now. Paula got out because she doesn’t like that DioGuardi broad, who was sent in to achieve that purpose. The show will go away and it will take a while and you shouldn’t have that failure hanging over your head. The “glue” for that show was Paula and her character fit perfect. Yours doesn’t. You are in your best fitting routine with your own show and now you are pressing the issue. Go home, stay away.
September 12th, 2009 at 3:25 pm
Ellen is not funny and I seriously question whether I’ll even watch Idol again
September 12th, 2009 at 3:43 pm
It needed something, Paula was getting old & Ellen is funny I won’t miss any shows this year,what a very good improvement !
September 12th, 2009 at 9:53 pm
WTF? Ellen DeGeneres?…judging a musical talent competition? Bad choice. She has no foundation in the “language of music” to understand what she is being asked to do. I think the absurdity of the choice will be evident when the judge’s critiques bear weight.
September 15th, 2009 at 11:06 am
everyone need a chance. lets see what she has. dont breath down she back yet.
we love you ellen
from texas
September 15th, 2009 at 4:57 pm
I am extremely disappointed in AI’s choice. How can someone who chooses a lifestyle like hers be affiliated with an “idol” show – especially the highly-regarded “American Idol”. I can’t see her contributing to the success of this show at all. I don’t even know if I will be able to stand watching her.
Shame on you, Simon Fuller, for not coming to an agreement with Paula. You show last year had finally turned a corner on civility – now you are taking back to craziness. You will be losing another viewer.
September 16th, 2009 at 1:10 pm
Wow! Brilliant choice… risk alienating 74% of your viewing population to include someone who represents the 1-2% of philias. That’s what it’s really all about anyways right?
IF my family does end up watching, I will pre record so that we can fast forward through (or mute) each of Ms. Degenerates comments… just like we did last season with Ms. DioGuardi.
September 16th, 2009 at 3:44 pm
Simon Fuller has lost his marbles choosing Ellen to replace Paula on Amer. Idol. Simon F. are you gay?? I hope the entire show goes down the tube for Simon’s”" SICKENING CHOICE”" to replace a lesbian for Paula Abdul. Might as well get Rosie up there too. Simon Fuller I hope you have to eat your decision for choosing Ellen as a judge. What a STUPID MISTAKE you have made, and I hope it comes back to HAUNT you. I hope Simon Cowell is so rude to Ellen she will wish she never accepted the offer. I WILL “”NEVER”" WATCH AMER. IDOL AGAIN AND I HOPE THE RATINGS OF THE SHOW HITS THE BOTTOM. Kara was bad enough–now Ellen it makes me want to vomit. STUPID-SICKENING MISTAKE!!
September 16th, 2009 at 3:49 pm
Hiring Ellen is the worst mistake Idol could have made. I have wat hed Idol every season but not the next and yes just because id Ellel
September 17th, 2009 at 7:52 pm
I shall not be watching American Idol any more. As was said by previous person three judges are enough. I also do not see what qualifies Ellen D. to be a judge. If you want to watch a comedy show watch Ellen I don’t. Goodbye Idol.
September 19th, 2009 at 6:44 am
i love ellen degeneres i will watch she is funny
September 19th, 2009 at 10:29 am
I was a big fan of the American Idol show, but that is a thing of the past now that you have hired Ellen Degenerate.
September 19th, 2009 at 1:28 pm
how was Ellen Degener(ates) name even considered? There are so many interesting singer-musicians out there who could judge, since they were successes in the music field. The show could have picked a popular homosexual musician
and I wouldn’t have had any problem with that. This choice has and will tarnish the credibility of the show in it’s having qualified people in the music industry accurately judge the best potential future talent. Paula and Simon were more than qualified and my family was entertained by the love hate thing that went on between them. Paula was sweet and offset Simon’s often callous remarks, no matter how truthful they were. I and many others will have a justified attitude in watching future shows in trying to ignore this, not even very good, comic.
September 19th, 2009 at 1:55 pm
Choosing Ellen Degenerate to judge a music competition makes the same sense as having a lawyer determine what type of medical treatment a patient should get in a hospital, over a Doctors advise. Maybe she was picked to please the homosexual community, because she sure couldn’t have been picked due to any music industry experience! If the show would have picked an accomplished homosexual singer etc. I would have had no problem at all with that. An Elton John or a Freddie Murcury type, I have been a fan of both. I suspect one reason was to have a second woman who could stand up to Simon. Idol must have come to the conclusion that its viewers being entertained musically was not enough anymore, God knows the ratings were through the roof, no, now we ‘re going to have two women to arrogantly respond to and criticize and rudely challenge Simon’s often insensitive yet qualified judgments. Randy is great, by the way. So, Idol, turn this show in part into a
stupid Soap Opera, time will tell where your ratings will go. Until you replace that female simpleton and send her back to her own field where she belongs.
October 1st, 2009 at 5:54 pm
i can’t wait to see the first american idol to see ellen degeneres put simon cowell in his place
October 2nd, 2009 at 8:08 pm
i think ellen degeneres will be great and funny
