American Idol. . . replacement for Paula

If Paula was being replaced on Idol. Who do you think would be a good replacement?

I'm thinking Whitney Houston would be great! Her words would mean more to me as a contestant.

Re: American Idol. . . replacement for Paula

Can I ask why (sincerly, not snotty) I can't imagine why someone who ran down sucha crackhead road would carry greater weight.

WIth that said, yours is better htan mine because I can't come up with anyone.
Gwen Stafani, maybe?

i think ANYONE would be better than her. I think i'd actually prefer to listen to nails on a chalkboard if it meant bypassing her commentary. Chat Icon

I would pick Whitney because contractually it would be easier. She really isnt' that busy anymore. She had a great career and she still sounds great and could still sell out a theatre. Her drug problem is in her past. I think she is definitely by far more respected in the music industry then Paula Abdul.

Where as somebody that is still a hot commodity would be hard to deal with taping wise for shows. But you never know.

Celine Dion because:

* as Randy says, "she can blow".

* seems like she would give critiques that would BETTER the contestant...not just shoot them down.

* because I love her and her talent. Chat Icon

I think someone current, and big in the music business now would be a good choice. It's been a long time since Paula has had a hit.

No one can replace Paula. It won't be the same show...

As annoying as she is, i'm on the edge of my seat waiting to see what stupid shiit she's going to say to each contestant.

Well said. And I agree with Deb about Whitney and the crackhead comment. IMO, the marriage to Bobby and the crack obession stripped her of any dignity.

J.Lo?
Gwen Stefani?


Another way to consider it, is who would be worse?
Britany.

Re: American Idol. . . replacement for Paula

I think it shouldnt be about someone who has a good voice. It should be someone who knows about showmanship and performing. Paula always had a horrible voice. I would be more inclined to pick an all around entertainer.

Re: American Idol. . . replacement for Paula

The thing with Paula is that she is very entertaining to watch. I just can't wait to see what stupid comment she is going to make. So they would need to come up with someone who has the same craziness as Paula otherwise I feel like you lose something with the show. Britney might be good, Paris Hilton might be good but her complete stupidity might annoy me.

as talented as she is (and I must admit she is NOT my cup of tea Chat Icon)...from what I've seen of her in interviews...she doesn't seem all that articulate, IMHO. She might not be much better than Paula!!Chat Icon But at least Paula has drugs to blame!Chat Icon Chat Icon Then again maybe I'm not giving Celine credit...being that singing IS her thing she might actually be able to say something intelligent about it!Chat Icon

Has anyone caught American Idol Rewind (old episodes with current interviews of contestants) on Channel 11? Every once in a blue DH and I run across it and watch. It's fascinating to see how far downhill Paula has come! And pretty darn sad...

Yes, I find the old episodes fascinating too. Randy - what a bore he was!

Sharon Osbourne...



GREAT suggestion. I'd love to see her in that seat. At least she can form full sentences.

I would love to see someone smarter, with better advice/comments, and more balls.

Sharon could take Simon in a fight too, I think. Chat Icon

Great choice. I loved her on America's got Talent. (That was the show she was on, right? )
