Ellen Replaces Paula Abdul as ‘American Idol’ Judge
And the fourth American Idol judge is going to be…Ellen DeGeneres. I am still hoping this will turn out to be false, but Ellen made the announcement at the taping of her talk show today. See the video above.
I love Ellen as much as the next person, but what a bad casting choice here. I was not the biggest Paula Abdul fan, but I am already missing her. The two most recent additions to Idol, Ellen and Kara DioGuardi, have been bad calls in my opinion.
So as it stands now, the four judges for next year will be Simon Cowell, Randy Jackson, Kara DioGuardi, and Ellen DeGeneres.
VOTE: LOVE or HATE Ellen as New American Idol Judge
