American Idol's back on 21 January.

 

Now that Simon, Kara & Ellen have gone will you still watch.

 

Joining Randy are new judges Jennifer Lopez and Steven (Aerosmith) Tyler

No as I cannot abide S.Tyler. :puke:

I was never a particular Simon fan, but this doesn't sound a great line-up :( I'll see what it's like, but I don't know if I'll stick with the whole series.

Not too keen on the line up really. Anyone know when X Factor starts ?

X Factor is Fall 2011, same time as in the UK

I agree, the line-up's terribly poor. I loved Ellen and Simon gutted they left. Don't mind J-Lo but I don't think she'll be a good judge :( I'm only 13 so don't know much of Steven Tyler, except that he's the lead singer of Aerosmith. I hate Randy as well, he's so annoying :(

Wikipedia says September for US XF, so yeah in the fall.

Are you mad! Steven Tyler is a rock GOD. He p!sses all over Cowell.

How's Simon (and maybe Cheryl) going to mentor both in the UK & US at the same time <_<

I'm going to be watching it this time, because Steven Tyler is on it :heehee: :wub:

Not been many ones I've liked so far :(

I think the series works much better this time round.

I agree with Josh :o The whole thing just flowed better, I was quite surprised I enjoyed it, despite only liking a few of the singers!

I've never really watched AI much before, but I gave it a shot and am surprised, I really enjoyed it :o Don't think Simon is really needed, the judges seemed good as they were. J-Lo & Steven Tyler were both better than I was expecting, and I don't mind Randy either. A couple of singers I really liked, I agreed with the decisions that the judges made. Reminds me that auditions are much better in private rather than in front of a live audience. Will try and stick with it until the end now, and hopefully they can produce another Kelly Clarkson/Jordin Sparks/Adam Lambert. Is the winner always signed to Interscope? Seems like a good label to be signed to, with acts such as GaGa & the BEP.

missed it last night :(

 

Did J-Lo look hot?

Eugh, that Jaycee kid or whatever his name is like a fat Justin Bieber >_< Except he can sing a bit.

Paris was amazing :wub: Her sob story was a little annoying, but she's my fave so far!

Paris :cry: what an amazing voice, and so sweet when Jennifer went to see her and her daughter :wub:

She and Steven are really good :o I really don't miss Simon at all.

I barely notice Simon is gone tbh :o I LOVE Jennifer as a judge :wub: She's my fave judge on AI ever :o

I watched some of this earlier today, and i actually LOVED Steve and J-LO on it. :wub:
