That's why they had four judges this year instead of the usual three.

No huge loss.

Good.
Now they'll actually have a half-decent panel of judges.

I hated how she loved everyone, even if they sucked.

UUUUUGH! FiNALLY!!
Maybe we can have judges that don't act like they're on weed and sleeping pills? Maybe?
Not that I watch American Idol that much, I think it's trivial and stupid but those times I was dragged into watching, I wish were actually enjoyable

"Act"?

The judges in the UK version are much, much better than the ones here. Minus Simon. I've always liked him.

Yeah Simon's awesome. Randy and Paula can go screw themselves though. I don't watch it either, but that still doesn't stop it from forcing its way into my life. Especially since my grandma watches it religiously and often forces me to watch too. I don't hate idol though. I mean, being forced to watch it is at least tolerable compared to some of the other crap I could be forced to watch. And some of the drama that I hear about regarding the show is hilarious (like paula's entire life.) But it's still not something I would ever CHOOSE to watch, and I avoid it whenever possible.

Anyway, no Paula = good riddance. Now if they would just ditch Ryan Seacrest too, then I might be able to watch an episode without wanting to strangle myself.

My mom heard a rumor about her being replaced with Kirstie Alley.
Is she even musical? At all?

Since when did America care about musical talent? It's more of a popularity show, that's about it. The beautiful people will always win.

Umm...just my thought, but some of the winners from Idol were not that beautiful looking.

Well I mean. All of the judges have had something music-related. Whether it's just performing or whatever.

I think it was documented somewhere that the contestants lip sync.

I wouldn't be surprised, I've also heard that Paula Abdul lip synced before but I don't know the legitimacy of that claim.

Oh I bet she has. Dancing and singing at the same time is hard to do, especially if you want your voice sounding clear and crisp.

Hehe.

Just heard another rumor that Victoria "Posh Spice" Beckhman might take Paula's place.

And I just found an article on it. Still not sure if it's true or not.

they're sticking with four this year too, they're going to be rotating guest judges and such. apparently katy perry's going to make an appearance.
