RIP American Idol

Just when I thought I could perhaps start watching American Idol again they make the all important announcement that Mariah Carey is going to take Jlo's idol seat. GAG ME! 


Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't this show supposed to be about the contestants and their talent. Crazy huh? 


Mariah Carey as the new "judge," makes it spectacle of who can have a better comeback. JLO and Steven Tyler BOTH did it. Now Mariah wants to AND wants how much money? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I don't want to know about your next single, video, or CD coming out. This is not supposed to be about your all mighty comeback after giving birth to miracle butterfly twins. (no offense)


Nigel Lythgoe needs to take a good hard look at what the show was first created on and the judges that first made the show a SUCCESS. They made sense together and the dynamic between all 3 of them yet alone between just Paula and Simon was enough to make out heads spin in pure delight. This is NOT a show about who can have the biggest superstar on the planet judge a singing competition show. 

American Idol DIDN'T get nominated for The Reality Competition show at the 2012 Emmy's FOR A REASON! Get some real judges who will be honest and critical...NOT ones with hidden agendas. 

RIP American Idol 2002- 2012
