The first photos of Ellen DeGeneres in her role as part of the American Idol judging panel have been released. The talk show host was drafted in to sprinkle the panel with her niceties, in place of Paula Abdul’s brand of crazy ass. I’m a little confused by these photos though. All I get from checking these out is that DeGeneres will be standing rigidly, while being badly MS Painted onto a backdrop with her fellow cast mates. Call me crazy, but that doesn’t seem that interesting.
nothing against Ellen, but I just don’t think this is gonan work. the chemistry/hatred between Paula and Simon is part of what made the show.
I like her enough to give her a chance… we shall see.
I agree with Mystery Man (nothing against Ellen…I do like her).
But something is just a “no fit” here. I suppose that I (along with many other viewers) can’t really see how she fits on the judging panel. That panel are as much a part of that show as are the contestants.
Well I gather it has started/ starts here next week. I’ll cross my fingers they haven’t screwed up the panel too much.
