Ellen DeGeneres To Join American Idol

Somebody out there thought it would be hilarious to make my worst nightmare come through by putting Ellen DeGeneres on another television show.

Yep just like the title of this post reads – Ellen will be replacing Paula Abdul and become the fourth judge on American Idol once the audition rounds finish up.

Speaking on her day time chat show she said..”I’m thrilled to be the new judge on American Idol. 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. Hopefully I’m the people’s point of view because I’m just like you. I sit at home and I watch it. â€¦ I’m not looking at it in a critical way from the producer’s mind. I’m looking at it as a person who is going to buy the music and is going to relate to that person. I’m going to have a day job and a night job. The times we’re living in … we’re all doing that.”

Now, I’m all for working hard for your money but is she actually serious in her last statement? Sure people have two jobs but Ellen the thing is, we all don’t get millions for each job.

There has been no word from Paula Abdul, most likely because she is probably high from raiding her medicine cabinet.

During the audition process the show had guest judges which included Shania Twain, Victoria Beckham, Mary J. Blige, Joe Jonas and Kristin Chenoweth.

Bosses for Idol, which returns in January, released a statement saying “Ellen has been a fan of the show for many years, and her love of music and understanding of the American public will bring a unique human touch to our judging panel.”

I know Ellen DeGeneres is the second coming to some people but I just don’t like her which is why this is my worst nightmare. Also what exactly are her qualifications when it comes to the music business?
