American Idol 9
Are
you itching for the American Idol 9th season to really get started?
Last
season, we had to get through the world shattering news that Kara
DioGuardi has been added as a fourth judge to the panel for Season
8, and what that may have meant for the future of the show. Well,
this season we found out!
As
we predicted, DioGuardi was just waiting in the wings to take over
the role from Paula Abdul, whose antics we suspected were wearing
very thin on producers. For fans, not so! She will be missed.
However,
with the sudden - and very unexpected! - announcement that comedian
and top talk show host Ellen
DeGeneres would be taking over Paula's spot in the 9th season,
what else can happen? Stay tuned!
