Ellen DeGeneres

I watched comedian Ellen DeGeneres as guest judge on “So You Think You Can Dance” last season and hoped I’d never have to see her judge again.

Now we know she’s the new judge on “American Idol,” replacing Paula Abdul. DeGeneres, who I generally enjoy, is certain to offer plenty punchlines and little criticism.

Is Ellen DeGeneres right for “American Idol”?

She will make a very sober judgement. Much better than Paula Abdul.

She was funny on So you think you can dance - however she doesn’t know anything about dance or music. Hence she provides no real value.

Ellen is a comedian. The contestants are putting their futures on the line and need someone who can give them objective criticism and nuturing advice. I will no longer be able to stomach the show. What the ___ were they thinking.

YES I THINK THAT WAS A GREAT CHOICE! SHE WILL KEEP IT REAL AND GIVE SIMON A RUN FOR HIS MONEY! I THINK HE CAN TAKE IT! I WAS THRILLED TO HEAR SHE WAS THE NEW CHOICE AND WILL BE MORE EXCITED TO WATCH THEN EVER! BRING IT ON!

I also saw her on so you think you can dance. I have to say she is very funny. My concern is she has no prof. music background. Yes she will add another elment but really? I have been a fan of IDOL and honestly will have to re-think what I will be watching to replace it. BIG MISTAKE

Although I like Ellen, I’d really like to know what background she has in music that would make her qualified to judge anyone.

This is the medias attempt to shove a lesbian into the most watched tv
program. She is not a singer, I do not want her opinion and will not
watch the show nor will my kids

THE ONLY WAY YOUR KIDS WOULD KNOW HER SEXUAL PREFERENCE IS IF YOU TELL THEM! FOR ALL YOU KNOW RANDY AND SIMON COULD BE GAY! PULL YOUR HEAD OUT!

I think Ellen will be a breath of fresh air to the show. I also would like to see a new face replace Mr.”Dog”. That saying has gotten very old! It’s way past time to make some real changes with the judges! In fact I use to be a big fan of the show, but I don’t watch it all the time any more because of the judges! Actually Paula should have been replaced years ago!!!
