Simon Cowell is continuing his press tour for The X Factor and this time he is bringing Demi Lovato with him instead of Britney Spears. Yesterday the two of them were on Conan and they told the TBS late night host how they really feel about each other. Let’s just say if she wasn’t almost a third of his age, I bet the two of them would be getting married. Seriously am I the only who feels there is a sexual tension between them?
But it wasn’t only about Simon thinking she is annoying and Demi thinking he is a bit of an a$$hole, the King of Mean also talked about his rumored breakdown. He told Conan O’Brien that he decided to take six weeks off from the communicating with people and that was all. Bummer I was hoping for something more exciting, but I guess I can settle for his outrageous paparazzi picture that Conan shared with all of us! I bet even Demi thought he was being bratty.
American Idol started auditions today and before they did they finally announced who would be on their judging panel. We already knew Mariah Carey was joining the show, and today AI said her manager Randy Jackson, who is the original besides Ryan Seacrest to still be on the show, will be back again. But there are two new names on the panel and they are the people that have been rumored for weeks. In case you haven’t heard it will be Nicki Minaj and Keith Urban and they are not enough to get me to watch the show again.
Anyone who is over the age to audition for the show will think, why Nicki Minaj? She is the much less talented version of Lady Gaga, who can’t sing and is known for her outrageous looks. To me she brings no cred to the show.
Now when it comes to Keith Urban I know he has a lot of country hits to his name and that is he’s married to Nicole Kidman, but other than that I know nothing. He comes off as boring to me, so I am not sure what he will bring to the show.
When it comes to having four judges, I guess they didn’t learn it doesn’t work. It is too many people trying to get their opinions in and none of them will say anything worthwhile. Especially since I am sure Nicki, Mariah and Randy will all try to make sure they say they most.
If I were Mariah, I would be pissed because Fox blew a great opportunity. She was a good get, but the rest are not.
At least Fox still has The X Factor going strong, oh wait…
Tomorrow is start of American Idol‘s auditions with the judges, but will they have them? For months there have been rumors that Miley Cyrus, Nick Jonas and so many others would be the ones replacing the departing Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler, but so far only Mariah Carey is confirmed to do so. Over the last few weeks the list has dwindled down to three other names and they are Nicki Minaj, Keith Urban and mainstay Randy Jackson. As of now Fox has not confirmed any of those three, but with the season to start filming tomorrow they might be ready to finally confirm something. Well at least that is what executive producer Nigel Lythgoe is thinking because he Tweeted, “I believe there is an official release tomorrow regarding the #IdolJudges? I do hope so as the auditions begin in the morning.” I am sure if things are not finalized in the next 24 hours, he would be more than willing to sit in the vacant chair until it is filled.
Personally I don’t care who they pick at this point, as long as they pick someone already!
Britney Spears and Simon Cowell were on Jimmy Kimmel Live to promote The X Factor and the ABC late night host had them play something like the Newlywed Game. For the last question he asked them what body part does the other person find the sexiest. The King of Mean thought the Pop Queen would say his butt, but she surprised us all by saying his chest hair. When it was her turn, she thought her co-mentor thought her arms were sexy. Well Simon is a male and he said it is “her t!ts”. Her expression to his answer was perfect. I guess she is that innocent!
Simon Cowell is a guest on Ellen today and before the show started we got to see what his infamous black T-Shirts look like before he puts them on. Let’s just Britney Spears and Ellen DeGeneres were not the only ones who were surprised by how small they really are. It explains why they are so freaking tight on him.
