Ellen DeGeneres on her show reacting to the news Simon Cowell is leaving Idol.
May I add myself to the list of people who quit this bish? Along with Oprah, Tyra Banks, and Simon Cowell I am going to pack up my bags and retire to sunnier shores. In my case that means taking a vacation sitting in front of my heater, or perhaps a toasty warm oven. I ain’t gonna be the only one doing any work up in this mother. Oh, I just realised I can’t quit blogging. There’s no one else you trust to tell you when Simon Cowell fires himself from his own show so he can go and jetski and get sunburnt on some rented island somewhere. While Cowell plans out what factor sunscreen he needs to protect his hairy man nips from getting burnt peachy red Ellen DeGeneres is providing us with LOLs. She’s also actually still turning up to work every day, which has gotta be worth at least a pat on the back and a bag of cookies. The comedienne/ hostess began filming scenes for Idol on Monday, the same day Cowell quit to focus on X-Factor. DeGeneres can be seen in the video above discussing how she feels about his departure.
You do realize that Idol is toast?
I said before that the real show on that show are the judges on that panel. The contestants on stage are mere cannon fodder, a periodic change of scenery to keep it interesting.
The real contests have been the quasi-staged personality clashes, verbal bitch-slaps, and the occasional breaking of intellectual wind emanating from judicial orifices.
Yes. I’m slowly accepting that fact
I guess I don’t agree, as I was never that interested in the judges. Never. I watched mainly early stages, not paying them too much attention. I wanted to see the contestants.
after this eason, idol may as well not even bother coming back. just move everything over to the x-factor, since it looks like simon and paula will aleady be there…lol
still, i have to wonder if this will end up being the highest rated season becuse it’ll be simon’s last…hmmm…it is a thought
I think it may be the last. The people behind “Big Brother” in the UK were honest about the fact that it stank out loud, last season – so it’s beig yanked off air. Idol may wanna do the same.
