In case you still care, American Idol waited two months to tell us what we already knew…Jennifer Lopez, Steven Tyler and Randy Jackson will be judging the show when it comes back for its 10th season in January. For those of you who don’t know who those judges are, Jennifer Lopez also goes by the name J-Lo when she feels like it. She is a singer, actress and a dancer and hasn’t really had a successful hit since American Idol has been on the air. Steven Tyler is Liv Tyler’s dad, I know the dude looks like a lady but he’s a man. He is in a band called Aerosmith, not spelled Arrowsmith as the people who have never heard of him think it is spelled. His band had big hits before most of the people who are auditioning for the show were born. You might have heard his band’s song Dream On being destroyed by the contestants in previous seasons and I hope they continue the trend in front of him. Boy will they be shocked he sang that song. Oh and recently Tyler is known for falling off the stage, I really hope the Idol producers don’t strap him in to his seat cause I would enjoy watching him fall out of it again.
When it comes to them judging, I so think they will suck and I am not sure I am going to find out because why would I want to watch them?
Weezer named their latest album Hurley after the Lost character played by Jorge Garcia and they put a big picture of his face on it. Well yesterday everybody’s favorite guy from Lost joined them on stage and sang the Perfect Situation with them. Rivers Cuomo Tweeted, “Hurley can SING!” and you know what, he is so right!
This isn’t the first time the lovable guy has sung has stage he has also performed with Band From TV that includes ER’s Scott Grimes, Desperate Housewives James Denton, Heroes’ Grerg Grunberg, House’s Hugh Laurie and Jesse Spencer and Bachelor’s Bob Guiney.
BTW Michael Ausiello is reporting that Jorge will be returning to ABC in my favorite comedy of the new season…Matthew Perry’s Mr Sunshine. Is it wrong for me to want a show to get cancelled just so the show will be on the air sooner?

The red band trailer for Hatchet II says we will get “more deaths, more carnage, more Crowley” and I say bring it on! I love a good bloody horror movie that promises lots of deaths and carnage and since this movie is being released unrated it sounds like it will deliver. So I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait to see this Adam Green’s sequel with Tony Todd and Danielle Harris when it comes out on October 1st!
