Vegan Ellen Degeneres Becomes Next Americal Idol Judge, Replaces Paula

September 9th, 2009

Wow! This is a surprise to me. I just read that vegan Ellen Degeneres has been announced the next American Idol judge, replacing Paula Abdul.

ellen degeneres new idol judge

It seems her recent appearance on America’s Got Talent gave her judge fever. Well apparently she’s a HUGE fan of the popular music show and got the gig from Simon Fuller. From what I’ve read online, Ellen got a massive 5 year deal. That’s huge!!!

“I’m thrilled to be the new judge on AMERICAN IDOL,” said DeGeneres. ”I’ve watched since the beginning, and I’ve always been a huge fan. So getting this job is a dream come true, and think of all the money I’ll save from not having to text in my vote.”

She’s no Paula Abdul. I will miss Paula because who can fight better with Simon than Paula. And that silly banter makes me laugh. Sorry Ellen I like you and you’re super funny at times, but Paula will be missed. And as for Cara, I’m really not sure what she’s still doing there. Not to be mean or snarky, but she brings nothing to the table. Sorry Cara!

What do you think, Is Ellen a suitable replacement for Paula?
