Good personality... but is she musically qualified?
Not sure how fond of this decision I am.

I like it. she is a true fan and will hopefully comment free from the bias that comes from judges in the biz looking for marketability over who is just the best. She's a lot of fun, and will offer great banter. |

I guess she did Dancing with the Stars too, but I don't watch that show. Anyone know how she was on there? It'll be interesting to see the dynamic between her and Simon. Also, I really hope Kara plays down her fake lesbianism she did all last season...  I'm a huge Ellen fan though, so I think it'll be great. Paula wasn't exactly the most qualified to judge music either, but she added a nice positive element and I think Ellen could bring that, too. |

i think its fine. i never watched American Idol to begin with...scratch that, i watched 1 episode, they were doing Queen songs and it made my ears hurt. in any case, i think she'll do fine and hopefully offer fan opinions vs business opinions. |

Awesome...big question is, though, will she dress up in a dress or a tux? Rosie O'Donnell would have made me not watch anymore.

For the AI fanatics like myself, I found this video where someone put together Ellen's judging clips from SYTYCD to get a feel for how she'll be. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x9ytr7 ... k-y_webcam I think she shows potential to fill Paula's shoes with a bit less slurring.
