I cannot wait to hear the banter between her and Simon!
Here I am (09/09/09), standing in line at the Music Box in Hollywood for the David Cook concert (amazing btw!), I check my twitter and what do I see… Anoop Desai (follow him at @anoopdoggdesai) tweets
“Cool, looks like Ellen is the new fourth judge on American Idol”
*BTW: SOME of the fans that show up to David Cook are insane! SOO…with that said. I will post a seperate post about the concert experience*
None of the 40+ year olds in the line believed me when I said it. I can honestly say I didn’t believe it either. I mean Ellen has arguably the most successful daytime tv show on the planet. It’s widely admired and rarely dogged. So, there’s no WAY that she could take on another full time role on a rival network!
But it’s true! Ellen is the new permanent 4th judge on American Idol!
I think of all the possibilities:
1. She will put Simon in his place! Can you imagine her quick comebacks when he makes a snide (yet seemingly accurate comment)?
2. For once, articulated sentences on a full time basis! I love Paula. I really do. She has given me some good laughs in the past.
3. The way she would stare down certain male contestants (Season 4’s Constantine Maroulis, Season 5’s Ace Young, Corey Clark was much more than a stare down) as if she wanted to pounce them right then and there.
How does everyone feel about it? I had predicted Tommy Lee but I guess a legendary Comedienne will do!
