The Fall of American Idol

It is time for American Idol to call it quits.  No more Simon.  Ellen is gone.  Paula is gone.  And now, Steven Tyler and J-Lo are judges.  Don't get me wrong, Steven Tyler is one of rock n' roll's greatest icons.  He is one of, if not the most, electric and charismatic front men in all of music.  However, an American Idol judge he is not.  Tyler shold be above this kind of nonsense.  He does not need the money or the publicity.  J-Lo on the other hand doesn't need the money, but she sure needs the publicity.  Mrs. Mark Anthony hasn't made a good movie since U-Turn and needs to be in the spotlight again.  She won't be as entertaining as Paula, (J-Lo doesn't fit the flakiness of Ms. Abdul) and very few people are as genuine as Ellen.  These choices are as confusing as they are stupid.  American Idol without Simon will not be fun or entertaining in any way whatsoever.  It's time for FOX to end this once powerhouse show and move on to something else.  Let Steven Tyler stick to gyrating on stage to "Love in an Elevator" and "Sweet Emotion" and J-Lo continue to make awful movies.  Idol has run its course.
