Yes, I heard Ellen quit !

who quit now

Ellen D :wink:

-gasp- But I <3 Ellen.

Mm, i liked her, thought she was funny and odd in a nice way ! LOL...Will the show continue ? and if it does will i like it ? Dunno guess its a waiting game...

some other story going around about J-LO being a new judge

Saw on the news this morning that Steven Tyler is a possibility now too.

AI usually begins in mid January, with broadcasting try-outs, but it's not in real time. Once they get their finalists, that's when they start broadcasting Live. So I doubt that would work out in Meat's schedule.

i don't think it's gonna happen.....fox news had a pretty good write up and had 10 names you can vote for.....meat wasn't one of them....i voted 'other' and wrote meat's name in

Now it is being reported that Kara has been fired from AI:

Yes, the latest rumor is that Kara is out, Ellen will be replaced by Jennifer Lopez,
and they're going back to the 3 judge format, with Steven Tyler (from Aerosmith)
taking over for Simon / Kara :lol: Now that's an interesting combination :-)

Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler would be interesting choices for the show. I think they need something big since they lost Simon and Ellen too. (And Paula in 2009.) I never really found Kara interesting on AI, and I prefer the 3-judge format.

This seems a little too odd, 3 judges gone, can't see it meself..i like Kara, will believe it when its all official.

If I had a shot at the AI seat,I'd cancel the tours . That is a very important seat . Look what it did for Simon Cowel? I think Meat would be perfect for that seat.

They were just talking about it here about Ellen leaving and they said that the guy who left because he didn't get on well with Simon was coming back, don't know his name, and they didn't mention Meat.

Lets be honest, Simon Cowell WAS American Idol and without him they can shove any celebrity monkeys on the judging panel and it won't be as good.

Meat has the talent, the longevity in the business, he's brave enough to say what he thinks and of course has that unpredictable artsy side too. He's sexy and sharp and AI should get on their knees and beg this amazing guy to take that spot.

he he Imagine getting feedback from Meat on your singing.:D

I would be scared to death! LOL

:lol:

what kinda makes me think I isnt meats thing is the show is about "hitting the right note" and stuff like that.

Meat's philosophy is you dont have to hit every note, just put on the best show you can possibly do.

Dunno if that mindset will work for a AI judge.

PS: Meats Philosophy is correct in every way.

Simon mixed it up and did not always judge things by the same yard stick. Meat would do the same thing. I am pretty sure he'd recognize talent if he saw it. Recall Patty's audition.:D

no i dont. is it on film somewhere? Thatd be interesting :))

The story about her audition is something like she auditioned and thought she had blown it, kicked something( something along these lines) and then ended up being picked.
I'm sure in Meat's stories it must be somewhere. I read it somewhere.

ill start a thread for this, its a bit off the topic aha :))

He wasn't brave enough to say what he thought at the time when Bat3 was being made :nope: I think Meat tries to please others first and holds back on his true feelings until a later date, where Cowell pleases himself first and says what he thinks on the spot regardless of who is in front of him.
