I love the show, can't stand the judges , Minaj is hard to watch. I liked Randy. But if the same judges came back, Me and My Sister will not be watching. She lives in Tenn. and I live in Indiana. We talk to each other during the whole show.
I honestly cannot believe they got Nicki Minaj, aka musics biggest joke. She performed on AI last season, and she didn't even sing the singing parts, she just did the rapping, now she's gonna judge singers??!!! Sorry Nicki, there are no rappers on AI, and you certainly don't know how to judge singing! I used to be obsessed with AI, especially last season, but now it just seems like such a joke, and so disrespectful to singing itself. The only good thing about this panel is Mariah.
Well. This should be interesting.
They like old drug addicts on their show it's like they are in rehab Paula, Steve, and Keith .I want to get drug addicted sing some songs go on the wagon and then make some good money as a judge on American idol.
Nicki, Mariah, No! NO! IM GONE!!
