I HATE REALITY SHOWS ALMOST AS MUCH AS I HATE SIMON.. THEY'RE SO STUPID..
I love the new judges on IDOL but I miss Simon! Looking forward to seeing him again!
Hmmmm,...'meat flute', that's original, my friend!! funny though.
Um....ok, thanks for posting twice. that's strange. oh, for the record, my grammar is fine lol ok, 'american idol' not 'idool' lol!!...just figured with all the overflowing love, friendships & well though out critical advice on this site alone, simon might feel very much at home here lol, jeeeez ppl!!
i think it's a ggreat idea, i come froma family of great musicians, we mostly do what we do for entertainment, love of entertaining others....i have an uncle who sang a duet with Joss stone not too long back. that's the closest to ah 'fame' i'd say we've come in our fam. most ppl don't really know though, that alot of the artists featured (including winners) with both american idool as well as i'm sure 'x factor' is the fact that we musicians never.....ever.. Become noticed overnight & most of these people have spent years working with bands of their own, other musicians, randomly & alot of them give in to critical advice so they stop doing what they love. like i said, the idea is pretty cool with me, who knows maybe i'll give it a shot! lol (sigh).... my biggest fear would only be that i might make it so far & like so many other great musicians not in mainstream music, i might cave also to the above....i couldn't imagine life without music because it feels good,.. Simon man, he can be brutal!

Dr T, will you be on my show?
If you see a short guy from NJ screaming parkway drive be sure to vote for me
I am so sick of stupid reality shows, especially copy cat shows. I know, how about a reality show about idiots who blog because they have nothing better to do. I will be the star. The retard who let us know he farted can be a star too.
I hope Simon makes everyone cry and is mean as all hell to them.
Day gun let darkies b on dis show. i gotz a lil whitegirl dat sang n2 my weiner lax it uh mycofone. Cab i b uh kuntessant??

All I'm sayin is hehhh??? Quit one show and make another one just like it...way 2 go Simon! U suck even more now!
hey hey hey hey smoke w##d everyday
Is that Cheryl Cole (ya know that girl from the uk with the criminal record) gonna be one of the judges??
I can't believe it but I think I might try the audition in Seattle. Not because I want to be anyone but myself, a hard working Native American woman from North Dakota but hey, what the heck!!
I thought it was talking about a show or movie based on the Marvel super hero group called X FACTOR, but no it is more of that McAmerican Idol BS, where the average joe or jane goes to act like a bunch of delusional idiots who think that they are surely gonna be the next McBritney Spears or McJustine Timberlake.
Oh great another stupid idol show that I won't watch
It burnt bad.
I just farted.
Better check the panel.....and wash your a$$
maybe they can find a replacement for Bieber. since he cut his hair, he ain't got it any more. his 15 minutes are up.

@ Dr.T "it takes offense that you should ASK that silly question, that is a RACIST term."-lets work on grammar.
@Justin Bieber-the wierd-o's are the reason why ratings for these auditions are so high...I'd say..let'em come. Lol. Uno..
