While I wouldn’t watch American Idol if you paid me, I am well aware of the awesomeness that is Simon Cowell. Rumors say that this will be Cowell’s final season as the reason American Idol is still on the air. Basically, this means the show is going to fail miserably after he leaves because no matter how stupid this show is, Cowell is always fresh when it comes to insults..

Cowell appears to actually care who replaces him though. This person should be handsome according to Cowell:

“You have to be good looking. Secondly, you have to know what you’re talking about. I’m starting to realize with these shows that you have to put people on that actually know what they’re talking about. Rather than guessing, they really have to have experience, so that you cannot just criticize — you can offer constructive advice as well.”

I suppose he knows as well as anyone. Obviously some of the hosts they have had on are quite terrible from what I have read. The most common thing I see is that they have no clue, and I’m sure Cowell supports that.

I don’t know about you, but seeing that La Toya Jackson actually believes she has what it takes to replace the legendary Simon Cowell on American Idol make me laugh like a little girl.

I mean this is LA TOYA JACKSON!. Who itheir right mind beleives she is even entertaining enough to interview, yet watch weekly on anything? Much less one of the most popular shows on television, and replace one of the most notorious TV personalities of all-time? Take an Orlando vacation and seek some help afterwards, lady.

I think TMZ probably gives you the general consensus on this whole fiasco.

IF you don’t know who Simon Fuller is, he is basically considered Cowell’s arch-rival for the month.

Fuller is pissed that Cowell is quitting American Idol after sealing a £100million deal to take the show to the US.

But he insisted that Idol will survive the TV star’s exit because the show has a “boxing-type” purity and is only about talented singers.

“I want Idol to be purely about talent,” stormed Fuller. “We’re not going to be led into the mud, we’re going to stay on our hill.” Too late…way to take the high road, and just nose dive straight into the mud bowl. Maybe you can say how all his guests are fat people and need belly fat reduction next?

But Fuller is known to resent Cowell’s success – and his livewire personality. “Fuller has got brains and instinct but has the personality of a wet weekend in Hastings,” said an insider, adding: “Cowell has the lot.”

Cowell has been nothing but complimentary of everyone still connected with American Idol. He released a statement saying how much he enjoyed his time on the show and wished them every success.

The source added: “This could get very messy.” Team Cowell last night refused to comment. A US telly source added: “It seems Mr Fuller has a lot of issues which he needs to work through.” US X Factor debuts in 2011 with Cowell as a judge and Cheryl Cole his probable sidekick.

According to TMZ.com, there is a way to win millions in American Idol betting. TiVo. In a sample of 20,000 users, TiVo monitors traffic — which contestants get replayed (a sign of popularity) and which one’s get fast-forwarded.

You think it’s bogus? Well, the TiVo system has nailed who got booted four weeks in a row.

And who does TiVo say is getting the ax tonight? Poor Syesha. Take it to the bank, people. Time to pay off your mortgage lenders by the end of the season.
