Jennifer Lopez has reportedly replaced Ellen Degeneres as a judge on the widely popular television show ‘American Idol’ (July 29). Degeneres announced Thursday she was leaving after one year as judge. Simon Cowell left last year after 9 seasons.
Ellen said,
“A couple months ago, I let Fox and the ‘American Idol’ producers know that this didn’t feel like the right fit for me,†DeGeneres said in a statement, while she “loved discovering, supporting and nurturing young talent, it was hard for me to judge people and sometimes hurt their feelings.â€
J Lo was close to signing a deal to join Fox TV’s hit singing contest, a person familiar with the negotiations said late Thursday. Personally, I think Lopez is the perfect fit for this position…what you think?
the blind leading the blind
Even Kara has been fired from Idol, seems shaking up.
Can’t IDOL find someone that really knows music? Gladys Knight, Patti Labelle. Get some old school Judges in there. Ellen really didn’t do justice to IDOL. The best seasons were 1,2,&3. Don’t think I’ll be watching. Jennifer Lopez not a good choice either.
I agree with Krazy, Jennifer needs to just keep on doing what shes doing, no offense, but we need some real soul people on there to judge who know what they are talking about.
