Ellen Will Tell Simon Off If He’s Mean
Ellen DeGeneres has been asked what makes her qualified to be a judge on American Idol.
“I love music – period,” said Ellen on Ryan Seacrest’s radio show, “And I’m a huge fan of the show. I haven’t missed one show since the beginning … I’m just a fan like everybody else.
“People are the ones who choose the American Idol,” she went on. “Ultimately, it doesn’t come down to some expert in the music industry. It comes down to everybody at home who says, ‘That’s the person I relate to.’ I hope to be that voice.”
Like her predecessor, Paula Abdul, Ellen said, “I’m not going to be mean. I hate when Simon’s that mean. I’ll tell him the same thing I tell him when he’s on my show – that he’s mean,” she said. “You can be constructive, and you can criticize someone in a way that’s helpful and not mean-spirited.”
She says that she hopes Paula is “OK” with her being a judge but doesn’t want anyone to think that she took Paula’s job away from her.
“I’m speaking from someone who loves music and someone who’s on stage everyday,” she said. “Hopefully, I can give them good advice and help choose someone that [people will like].
Ellen says that she will be an honest judge and bring some compassion to the show, “I really do pride myself on ‘not judging,’” she added. “I’m human and I have opinions, but I do try to catch myself and remind myself everyone is who they are for a reason.”
