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.
Leonard Nimoy might have retired from acting, but that isn’t stopping him from throwing his pointed ears into the American Idol judging mix. Here is what Spock Tweeted this morning, “Mariah Carey got the ‘American Idol’ job replacing Jennifer Lopez. I was hoping to get the call. I would have been less expensive. LLAP” I really hope that Fox considers this because I think he would be perfect for the show. He has singing experience and he has worked with Fox on Fringe, so that is great. Plus what would be my ultimate fantasy is that when he doesn’t like a singer, he can say “Beam me up Scotty” and we all know what he means. There is no intelligent life on this show.
Who is with me think that he would be great on the judging panel along with Mariah Carey?
After weeks of rumors that Mariah Carey would be joining American Idol, Fox Entertainment President Kevin Reilly confirmed she is at Fox’s Press Tour Day. I have to admit her addition is enough for me to watch the show. Unlike the other three judges, she knows actually her stuff and she can be quite articulate. Plus she was married Tommy Mottala, one of the greatest producers in the music business and he had to teach her something during their marriage. Oh and she most importantly she can sing and sell albums, something J-LO could only do one of.
Thank you to Mark Burnett for coming up with The Voice and casting Christina Aguilera, Blake Shelton, Cee Lo Green and Adam Levine as coaches and because of that it made Fox step up their game. The X Factor added Britney Spears and Idol brought on Carey. I am sure the people who are audition for these shows are happy about that changes because people they grew up with and idolized are not the people mentoring them on these reality shows.
Congrats to Fox on a good hire, let’s just hope they do an equally as good filling the other two seats. It is time for the Dawg to go even if he is Carey’s manager.
A day after Jennifer Lopez said she hadn’t made a decision whether or not she would stay on American Idol and Steven Tyler announced he was leaving the Fox show, J-Lo confirmed to Ryan Seacrest she she is quitting the singing the competition. She said it was not an easy choice but she has too much on plate and just can’t give the show the commitment it needs.
I say good riddance because I have never liked her and she added nothing to the show. She was too nice and boring.
So now Randy Jackson is once again the lone judge and I think it is time for him to go. Actually I think it was time for him to go a long long long time ago. If the rumors are true that he is a package deal with Mariah Carey then I think she needs a new manager. Carey would be great because unlike J-Lo she can sing. Plus she was married to one of the biggest record producers in history. She knows what it takes to creaye a music star unlike the other judges.
