I don’t watch Glenn Beck’s show, but I’ve heard people talking about him all over the web. The controversial talk show, Glenn Beck is leaving his Fox show. He mostly talks politics. I don’t know much about Glenn Beck, I don’t really follow him. Just thought I would throw this report out there. I do know that he is a guy that you either love or hate.
Yes, I watched the Superbowl last night. I’m glad the Packers didn’t let the Steelers win. Everyone thought the Steelers were going to get it, no matter what, but everyone thought wrong. The Packers made the Steelers look like sissies last night. It was a pretty good game. Not the best game ever played, but I wished they could have played better to make it more fun.
As far as the music goes, oh my god! What an embarrassment! Cristina Aguilera fucking up the National Anthem, the same with that Glee chic who did America the Beautiful. Both messed up. Also, the Black Eyed Peas was one of the worst performances I have ever seen. How can they go from the Who from last year to the Black Eyed Peas? Black Eyed Peas were dressed as robots from Star Trek. What the hell was that light thing Fergie was wearing? Also, Fergie can’t sing for shit. It was auto-tune and lip syncing. Plus, she looked terrible. Even Slash couldn’t save it. I didn’t even watch the whole Half Time performance. Usually I do stick through the whole Half Time musical act, but for the first time in a long time, I didn’t watch this half time. Only watched a little bit, and I’m like, “Fuck this half time shit, I’m going on the computer until the game comes back on”. Hope they get a better musical act for next year, something that everyone cares to see ’cause nobody cares for the Black Eyed Peas. I hate that group.
As far as the commercials goes, there were only two commercials that I liked. “The Super 8” footage and the “Captain America” trailer, those two were cool. Both trailers were exclusively shown during the Superbowl, they weren’t shown anywhere else. I’m very excited for both movies as I will see both “Super 8” and “Captain America” in theater when they come out.
So I watched the webcast earlier this afternoon on the A.I. website. Went on there and there was no sound through like half of it. Just proves that American Idol fucking sucks. They promote this press conference, heavily. So many people get on there and there is no sound. WTF? Losers!
Would J-Lo and Steven Tyler help the American Idol ratings for next season? No. The show would simply flop, simply because of no Simon Cowell. The show can’t be successful without him. They’ll tank, trust me. I once had so much respect for Aerosmith, back in the 70’s and early 80’s. Aerosmith became a joke when they became too mainstream in the 90’s…but they came back and I started respecting the band again when they released, “Honkin’ On Bobo”, (an album full of blues covers) ’cause that was a good album that I actually enjoyed. I think the only reason Steven agreed to do Idol, is because he has a solo album coming out soon and he figure the show will help plug him the album. Look at J-Lo in the picture, she doesn’t look good. I can’t stand J-Lo, she’s not hot and just an annoying woman.
Even if I hate American Idol, I’ll watch the next season for a little bit, just to see how Steven Tyler does. I tell you right now that this will mess up Aerosmith’s career. Steven went on the press conference and accused the rest of the band being jealous of him when Joe Perry slammed him for doing the show. Um, no Steven, no one is jealous of anyone here. The reason Joe Perry slammed you because he wants you to concentrate on Aerosmith where you truly belong, not being involved with some stupid karaoke contest.
Like I said, no matter who takes over Simon, the show can’t be done without him. Simon created a legacy with the show. No one wants to see the show without him, no matter who’s the new judge. Hopefully Steven’s job on American Idol won’t last long. I’m sure he’ll end up drinking and doing pills again that will force him to get off the show at some point, just give it time.
So two new American Idol judges will be announced this coming Wednesday. We all know Jennifer Lopez is going to be one of them. Even though Steven Tyler kept reportedly saying he’s confirmed, there hasn’t been anything official on Steven yet. I don’t know if Steven is going to be the judge, because I think Joe Perry and the guys in Aerosmith are trying to talk him out of it. Why? Because if Steven joins American Idol, that would take his time away from, Aerosmith. I’m pretty sure Steven’s not going to be judge, 100% sure of it. It will be someone else instead of Steven. If Steven was signed as American Idol judge, it would have already been announced earlier this week. Steven needs to concentrate on Aerosmith, that’s where he belongs. A.I. is not for Steven, that’s not where he needs to be.
If I’m wrong that Steven is going to be announced as judge Wednesday, then my bad, but I’m pretty sure I’m right on this too. If it is Steven, I would never support him and Aerosmith again. Seriously.
Yes, Steven Tyler has years of experience with music but that doesn’t mean he’s going to be a good American Idol judge. Why would he suck at being the judge?
Here are some reasons why:
He would give positive feedback to any Idol singer that sings an Aerosmith song whether he/she sings it good or bad. If A.I. does an Aerosmith night, Steven would go crazy.
If male singers has a rock n’ roll image or if they sing rock, Steven would be all over that as well.
Since Steven loves blues music, singers would try to sing the blues just to impress him.
Singers would try to steal Steven Tyler’s image: The long hair, fat lips, fashion, etc.
He wouldn’t understand today’s mainstream of music. If you knew Steven’s history with music, he was always about old school. He always listened to really old rock and old blues. I don’t think he would give honest feedback if a singer sang a song by Britney Spears or Katy Perry.
Steven’s ego would hurt the other judges and singers.
I don’t see him being a mean judge, I see him being a friendly one.
If you watch Steven’s interviews on TV and the internet, you can see that he comes up with crazy answers ’cause he likes the attention with the media.
He would be smiling and laughing like he always does.
I can see him going on and on and on about him comparing other singers voices to his own singing voice.
There you go. We’ll see how long he lasts on the show.
You gotta wonder if he’ll be a mean judge or a nice one? Either way I don’t care. I don’t see Steven lasting long in American Idol. More drama out of this guy will happen which may cause him to get fired or quit.
So Steven Tyler is in negotiations with FOX to join as an American Idol to judge to take over for Simon Cowell or Ellen Degeneres. It seems that Steven wants it badly. Why did I put the title in the blog post that if Steven Tyler joins, Aerosmith is dead to me? Well it’s true. Aerosmith will destroy their career just like how Ozzy destroyed his by doing “The Osbournes” TV show. If Steven joins American Idol, no one will ever see Aerosmith as a rock n’ roll band anymore.
Don’t get me wrong, I love Aerosmith, always had, but if Steven joins American Idol, the band will no longer get my support. They might upset their longtime die hard fans as well. American Idol is a huge mistake for Aerosmith. I wish Joe Perry would talk him out of it, but it’s pretty clear Steven craves for publicity.
If Steven joins, Aerosmith will become the American Idol band instead of a rock n’ roll band. That’s what happened to Chris Cornell when he started doing this American Idol thing.
The mainstream of music is a disaster. There hasn’t been much good music in the mainstream except Slash put out one of the best solo records in a long time. Slash’s new record is fucking great. I hope Slash will never be part of American Idol ’cause that would destroy his image and career as well.
Well that didn’t last long. Ellen Degeneres is quitting “American Idol” as judge, effective now. Remember, she did say she wouldn’t do the show without Simon Cowell. Maybe that’s the real reason?
She does have her own morning talk show. Maybe she felt that doing two different shows at the same time was too overwhelming for her and she wanted the evenings off for herself?
Out of all names picked to replace Simon Cowell: Howard Stern, Conan O’ Brien, Perez Hilton and many others…look like American Idol/Fox is getting very close to finding their guy. Who is it? That’s right. It’s Chris Isaak! A singer/songwriter that is known to being similar to Elvis Presley and singing like Roy Orbison. He did songs like “Wicked Game” and “Baby Did a Bad Bad Thing”. Chris is also a film actor and has his own show, “The Chris Isaak Show”.
I hate American Idol, but this is actually a good decision. Chris is a very talented songwriter, I enjoy his music. If you’ve seen Chris’s interviews, he’s always been brutally honest and he is a kind of a dick (I meant that in a good way). I’d say go for Chris. I would watch American Idol again if he is hired. He would be entertaining. 🙂
Everybody is talking about Simon Cowell replacement on “American Idol”. Yes, Simon Cowell is done with “American Idol” for good. He’s done. He’s moving on. There has been talks on replacing him. It doesn’t matter if the Cowell replacement is Howard Stern, Perez Hilton, Elton John, Madonna, etc. whoever. Simon Cowell is NOT replaceable and he never will be. Here is why…
When American Idol first started in 2002, Simon Cowell started some controversy after he started giving singers some very negative critiques. Simon brought American Idol to what it is today. He was the one who brought the ratings up for the show . People watch the show because of him, ’cause they like a good badguy. In my opinion, I don’t see Simon as a badguy judge. I see him as an easy going guy who is honest about everything. People get mad at him ’cause they can’t the truth.
What would American Idol be like without Simon Cowell? The show is going to fail. Period. I predict next season, ratings will be very low. The lower the ratings get, FOX would probably cancel it. No matter who takes over Simon Cowell, no other judge is in his league.
I used to watch “American Idol”, I saw the first couple of seasons, then I quit on season 4 I think. As usual American Idol is still boring, even this year. The only talented singer I was hoping to win it this year was that Crystal Bowersox chick. She actually has the talent, plus that last name, Bowersox is so fuckin’ cool. She’s hot and a hippy chick. Even though she didn’t win, she will have a huge career up ahead anyways.
Back to Simon, it’s going to be weird watching “American Idol” without him. You will never get used to watching the show with him being gone. Simon is an inspirational guy. Everyone should be thanking him.
