Ellen DeGeneres Saying Goodbye To American Idol

[Dsosa231]

oh poor ellen she didnt want to hurt people feelings

[davidortizFF7]

Pink!

[aku192]

I have to admit when I first heard that Ellen was gonna be an idol judge I was pretty excited and was sure she would be perfect for it. But after her appearnce on idol last year I felt that maybe I was wrong. As much as I love Ellen and think she's hilarious, she really didn't add anything at all to the show or make it more interesting (ironic I know). I think she made the right decision to quit the show.

[bjarneboy]

ME!!

[MrGonqshow]

Chuck Norris.

Why are you laughing.

I'm dead serious.

[Spankin1963]

Only one thing wrong with this video. What is broke back carpet bupping Degeneres doing on there???

[SonAmy131]

Fred Figglehorn!!!

[michellewhite123]

i love ellen degeneres xxxx

[MadHatter34784]

Howard Stern would probably ask the female contestants to show their boobs.

[jpm8008]

First Simon, now Ellen =(

[Black0123Angel]

Taylor Swift!!

[Blacckkfire]

bill gates

[Blueknightex]

More like FIRED. Seriously FOX Network we're not idiots. Its part of her contract to explain BS that she wanted to leave! and to keep her mouth shut for being axed!

[piaka56]

Ellen's mom. She's great!!!

[mtrsgt]

Joe Pesci. He is a guy, who can definitely get things done. American Idol needs a judge with some intestinal fortitude.

[covingtonjoe]

i am glad she left. ellen who is funny and does good at what she does. has nothing to do with music at all. she cant sing she cant dance so why would that kind of person judge a singing contest. it is like a burger flipper doing heart surgery.

[BrunoCruzUndaground]

her breath stinks

[Broadyork]

this was really fast ^^..but if she doesn't feel confident she should go......waiting for the new judges :)

[146micmic]

I think its funny that people ask for a thumbs up at the end of there comment and dont get any! ahahhahahaha

[zonerboi22]

simon left coz AI ratings are dropping and he's too proud lose furthermore, the show has never been able to produce any international superstar since Kelly Clarkson. Simon wants big money, that why he's going in some other direction.

[daymanzson84]

yeah its goin down hill, i didnt like kara and thought ellen should take her place and she should go, and of course its gonna not be as good without Simon.

[daniellekl17]

jennifer lopez isn't in the running anymore because she demanded too much money ... it's now shania twain they're considering.

[aznprincess140]

kara is also leaving, news said jennifer lopez might take her place

[dasisbomba11]

THAT WHAT YOU GET FOR STEALING OTHER PEOPLES JOB,YOU MULTYTALENTLESS BITCH!!!!!!!

[Hopedances26]

this show is just going on for to long. the winners dont go on to do anything good anymore. they judges arent the same. not as many people watch it or like it. just end it already before we're seeing american idol season 95. thumbs up if you agree?

[p2wing]

Thank goodness...can't stand her. Bring on Steve Tyler. I passed on the show all this season.

[JML689]

she shouldn't have been there in the first place, regardless, simon left, soo AI is already set to fail...

[ovywan08]

as always, the king of all media called it right on the money! hope u dunt take this firing..... errr i mean leave from idol too harsh ellen

[calamityjanenguyen]

Why? Why? Why? I want her in the show!

[xoxorawwr]

yes shes leaving, like she does'nt no anything about music.

[stevea45]

HOward stern is the closest the'll ever get to Simon. I'm glad Ellen left, she's right it wasn't a good fit!

[chiomaable]

simon is my favourite

[XXRiotgirl12]

]: i loved ellen on americal idol. she always had something funny to say. now i defidently dont want to watch it next year, now that theyre replacing both simon and ellen.

[ieatroches95]

@PlaidTeletubbies13 yea your probably right

[xoSushi]

Ken Jeong

[vicaad2]

why did simon leave the show? 

[GERS123CANDY]

@vicaad2 he's becoming a judge on x factor usa

[vicaad2]

@GERS123CANDY ohh ok thnx

[artfyasko]

i think that britney spears should become the next judge. i know shes had some rough times but i think she would be a good fit.:)

[Blueknightex]

She probably got fired. FOX Networks are sometimes liars. Its part of the contract to say that 'they are leaving' or else they'll get bad reputation and FOX will be blamed badly for it.

Same goes for Paula Abdul by the way.

[3mochick101]

im not sad shes leaving she wasnt even fit for the position anyways ... she should just stick with her own show ..gosh still cant believe she scored tht 1 .. but in her defence do love the guests she has on her show. thts the ONLY reason i sometimes watch it ..lol

[pooten0]

William Hung has my vote for the spot

[aleesha3426]

ur z

[nivri7]

But i heard Jennifer Lopez was going to replace her =S is it true ?????

[onebluestone]

William Hung

[rfranco379]

Howard SPERM of course..lol !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The ratings would be OutaControL!

[slsconnected27]

Piers morgan to replace Simon cowell for his hot temper,british humor and critics and shania twain for her vibrating personality!Perhapps a blonde actress or celebrity such as lindsay lohan or jessica simpson to fit in the pannel with brunette kara.

[TheIpsoFacto]

Yay.. great news! I can't wait to watch the American Idol again.

[MrRayBnz]

@TheIpsoFacto Yes, that's good for the American Idol. And even better, J-Lo (someone with an adequate musical background) will replace Ellen. Ellen should have known that she would not fit there and not be too greedy acepting the offer. Simon probably thought that Ellen would be around for long. Knowing J-Lo will be there, Simon must have regretted for leaving the AI. :)

[popups46okay]

NO to Jessica Simpson.

[themasterbakerrr]

Mel Gibson.

[slsconnected27]

@themasterbakerrr- He with be so great to replace Simon!lol!

[railstoruin]

@themasterbakerrr Oh, dear god.....

[Khaminor]

ahahahah, howard stone please, we would laugh alot thats for sure

[ieatroches95]

coward sperm .. Who the hell is he ?

[yvonneost12]

Jessica Simson would be good as a judge. Lovely lookin lady too.

[TheRealStephieRocks]

American idol has been rough these last couple seasons. The next time I hear we are getting another judge I'm gonna stop watching it

[jamesbooker89]

hay you guys look forward to 2011 x factor in the us with simon its way better trust me we have it in the UK its huge here that's were Leona made her big brake

[LaraJade17]

ugh.... american idol is just so boring now... :(

[alltimenumberone]

they should really just cancel american idol, with simon gone its no longer entertaining and the contestants aren't even ending up sucessful anymore, so its really pointless. it had its run of many season, its time to stop

[ovywan08]

ellen didn't leave idol..... idol producers forced her dyke ass out

[ALina1441]

@ovywan08 your evil. what's wrong with you? =.=

[hissbitequeen]

@ovywan08 how the fuck do you know what happened? so what if she is a "dyke" as you say you hating asshole! what the hell difference would that make in your life? worry about yourself for a change and quit being such an ignorant ass-hat!

[whatu2bin]

ellen is a women of kind nonjudgemental words im glad she choose 2 leave the show :)

[behindthesky15]

Nooo!!! Okay, if Randy leaves, I'm going to stop watching all together! xx

[mvalliere5]

HARRY CONICK JR.

[blabbermouth1111111]

i love simon! it wud b relly awsom if j.t. wud take over!!!!!

[badkid0120]

i really like ellen shes funny first paula left the simon my favorite juj and now ellen! whos next randy or kara

[endlesslove5683]

Im sad that shes leaving

:(

[g95td2000]

kanyeeeeeeee west AHAHH .. clearly he has no problem hurting peoples feeliings

[matlil88]

@g95td2000 HAHAHAHA YEAH AFTER WHEN HE OWNED TAYLOR SWIFT

[xbrownie17x]

Honestly without simon cowell this show is gonna sukk!!

[koyamagen]

@xbrownie17x He should've left in Season 8 so that Siobhan could've possibly won her season.

[demonsayion]

hey just wondering for AI new judges why not kiefer sutherland and carlos bernard

[RuthieJey]

@demonsayion

its Jenifer Lopes, Randy Jackson, and the front man from Aerosmith I believ

[broadwayboy341]

Justin t would be good..... For elen Selena gomez or Adam sandler

[J0N4SBR0TH3RS]

@broadwayboy341 SELENA GOMEZ ? O.o

are you INSANE?

[itsdaanielle]

justin timberlake would be goood :D

[333lissalove]

ace8842 go get fucking laied or something but i think justin should deffinitely be a judge. jessica is too retarted to even find the doors to that place and stern looks like he's on drugs lol jt has all the experience and he knows good from bad...

[ace8842]

Ellen..don't let the door hit you on the way out. A gay activist should not have been hired on a family oriented, southern based show...bottom line. I think you need at least one conservative member on the panel.

[sussification]

@ace8842 wtf? Why would her being gay stop her from doing things? I'm from Tennessee and love Ellen, and so does pretty much else I know.

[toothpick214]

Harry!!!!!!!!!!!!

[robotentity]

AI won't last without Simon.

[iHamKat]

No one, American Idol is stupid, They should just quit

[pandapplemeeh]

@chandresuary idk something like shaking up the judging panel. i'm not really sure.

[gelarxable]

i wish shania twain would replace her....

[xoWorldOfChancesxo]

Everybody's leaving except for Randy..Weird =P

[hollywoodshopaholic]

she probably couldn't stand kara lol

[murphash29]

I'm totally gonna miss ellen & Harry should do it, He was a great guest mentor and would an even better judge plus he's good to look at :)

[Pottergurl8]

I'm gonna miss Ellen!!!!!! Kara got fired?!? YES!!!!! I didn't like her. Def not Howard Stern. I like Harry Connick Jr. But Ellen... Hmmm

[melinaminh]

Justin Timeberlake

[laraboho1]

Justin, justin justin justin:)

[ItsConceHere]

i want justin timeberlake!!!!!! :)

[Smarty704]

Loads of people would tune in if they made a whole celerity judge table. My pick would be Katy Perry - the "real one", and she is really hot. Justin Timberlake - "the nicer, but realistic one". And maybe an American idol winner, like Fantasia, Kelly Clarkson, or Carrie Underwood. And with each season, there should be a guest judge. I also think, due to the last, really bad season, they need to but a new element to the whole show. Something that makes it very hard and pleasing to watch.

[mitchrosenbloom]

good i hated her

[gmystery14]

WHY IS EVERYONE LEAVINGGGGGG..... :|

[pandapplemeeh]

@gmystery14 Kara got fired too.

[gmystery14]

@pandapplemeeh I know. They should just end it already. :|

[xTinxBoo]

Too bad Ellen's leaving.....Justin Timberlake!!!!!!!!

[C0mput3r]

Think they should just cancel American Idol. No more Simon, Ellen, Paula & Kara. Just Randy saying Dawg isn't going to cover a 1 hour show.

[CalvinWangZi]

@C0mput3r Kara's leaving AI too? I heard that J-Lo is replacing Ellen.

[TheAlina808]

Justin Timberlakeeeeeeee :)

[jazminestryder]

I wouldn't be able to tell someone they suck at singing... thats just awful. Even if it IS true.

[varsityfanclub9]

10 season contract? That's long

[disneychec]

I want Harry Connick Jr. to step in for Simon and hmmm for Ellen? hmmmmm. idk. BUT KARA DIOGUARDI FIRED!!!! WTF? That is BULLSHIT! Kara and Simon were the 2 best judges there! IMO....

[pnkpnai718]

She's right. it was definitely not her part to be one of the main judges. i'll be honest, i think american idol is falling apart and they need to stop. i dont think the singers are getting any better. (Someones going to get mad at me, right?)

[92lucyloo]

lady gaga!

lmaoooo

[everybodyluvsemily]

Jessica Simpson

[minigasneice]

no she was really fired cuz she is a big mouth, after filming American idol she went over to her show and blabbed to everyone about everything. and shes not a music person she cant pick up the "jumpyness" and stuff like that. i hated her on AI and that's that.

[peasent1287]

people have been saying there will be a three panel jusdge, randy jackson, jennifer lopez, and steven tyler

[wellybelly3000]

Miley Cyrus



[QueenDyCe]

ellendegeneresalreadyleavingam­ericanidol SAY WHAT?! lol just like hannah montana. daddywhomakelotsofpuns SAY WHAT??

[Christy3248]

i liked her she was funny but she wasnt that critical.

[sexybethlovespink]

WHAT?!?!?!?! NOOOOO!!! THIS IT TERRIBLE!!!!! =[[ IM NOT WATCHING IT NEXT SEASON NOW!!

[foreverhearts21]

WHY CANT IT JUST BE THE 3 ORIGINAL JUDGES?! THE SHOW WILL NEVER BE THE SAME! :( THUMBS UP IF U AGREE!

[dloren205]

delete the 2nd '&" in the search bar if you dont want the toolbar. Thumbs this up and share this with everybody so people will know.

[minigasneice]

@dloren205 what? :s

[fredloverification]

Maybe Justin Timberlake...... would be better

[jakoa17]

Its a good thing that she left. I love Ellen!!! BUut she didnt have any experience in singing. So i dont uunderstand why they would want her to judge. Her singing opinion is just as important as ours. Ellen is great!!! I love her but Its a good and smart thing to leave.

[blackzabbathfan]

sharon osbourn

[McKenzie765]

I will only watch idol, if they put Justin Timberlake in. Anyone else, ew.

[kimtoria12]

How the hell did Jessica Simpson get in there?!?! She has NO TALENT!!!!!

[emiajlc131]

HELL NO!!!! I WILL DEFINATELY NOT WATCH IF THEY PUT JESSICA SIMPSON ON THE SHOW.

[nisbabee11]

american idol is not american idol without simon.

[Katya1269]

American Idol should just give up. its shit now...

[GoodGirlKC]

@Katya1269 It turned into shit a looong time ago. Now it;s bordering on pathetic. 

[wonderjosey18]

@GoodGirlKC so true.

[girliciouslova101]

Someone that is actually a world renowned vocalists, i.e. Christina, Mariah, Whitney, Aretha.. but that also has back bone, so I say Christina Aguilera.

[jbmcmigsal]

justin timberlake!!

[prnpeach24]

PLEASEEEEEEEE!!!!!! NOT. JESSICA. SIMPSON. THATS A PLAGUE!!!!!

[Cheeron222]

She's really funny, but I think she should stick to her own show and start making people laugh again. :)

[sawbluraymad2]

jessica would do a good job

[nickjonasprinces216]

yes! (:

ellen is so boring and puts me to sleep!

[zivaray]

She said it wasn't a right fit for her? Duh!! The lady doesn't know about singing. LOL!

[starpopz1]

okay ellen was an awful judge so why is this surprising.

[fuchadancer94]

I think they shouldnt do a American Idol anymore! its getting boring!

[Imperialmoonlight]

July 30th, 2010, 2:38pm EST. The exact time, and date, I have officially lost interest in American Idol. I will not be watching it anymore.

[Lulipaz]

me...

[OnlyMadeOssandon]

No Justin! Go Ellen!

[xxladybug94]

what the hell is happening to american idol?? first paula, then simon, now ellen??? i have no reason to watch the show now!! ugh

[gamenut46]

justin bieber is too young to be a judge, i would want selena gomez sense shes leaving wowp.

[starpopz1]

@gamenut46 lol shes not leaving wowp.

[gamenut46]

@starpopz1 yeah i can tell by ur pic ur a fan so u wuld know.

[starpopz1]

@gamenut46 yeah she said so on her twitter :P

[LiindaBieber]

If Justin Bieber is the new judge, I'd audition even though I suck at singing.

[willycosme]

Jennifer Lopez to replace Ellen<3 She's funny, sexy, talented, genuine and sweet.

[taylorandtaylorluver]

meee :( ellennnn <3

[webkinzworld08]

First simon now ellen?!

[naturallyshelley]

WHAT?!?!?! I'm soo upset!! I mean like Simon just left and now Ellen!?!?! WHAT!!! And Jessica Simpson might be okay!

[popstargurl241]

its rumored that all of the judges are getting replaced.

this season is gunna suck. i went to an audition. some people didnt even sing, they just danced or made jokes to the judges and got a gold ticket.

I heard justin timberlake and jlo are gunna be 2 new judges and elton john? but yea this season is gunna be horrible

[LINDSAYLIKEOMG]

LOL Howard stern would make Simon look like Paula.

[MzChellamz]

luv u ellen!!

[xpinkpopcornx]

justin bieber or greyson chance, duh! ;)

[iheartwebkinz52]

Ellen actually kept the show entertaining at some times,

but without Ellen or especially Simon American Idol is gonna SUCKKK

unless they get some REALLY awesome new judges, who have big shoes to fill

[jonasfan4life161921]

there are rumors that kara is gone too. wow. AI is gonna be done after this season

[Taylorandkristen4]

No Ellen don't go!!! lol Tear :,(

Just as long as u keep ur show.

[iluvmusic5790]

first paula... then simon... now ellen... who's next? randy??? american idol's gonna go down the drain if they keep putting this up.

[jborsfan01]

justin timberlake

[patworx1]

Ellen is a very nice person. She doesn't like to hurt peoples feeling and I think that's why she doesn't like being a judge. It's understandable.

[TheHotgrl318]

Yeah well british people can't take over an american contest! Simon belongs in England!!! :D Though why would the other judges quit?

[AlexMatthewman]

NOO!! I LOVE ELLEN! XX

[doesitmatter94]

the show was already down the toilet when paula left

[TheOnlyLily]

Jessica Simpson would make a good judge. She's a very honest, down to earth lady, but I absolutely love Ellen, there's no doubt about it. Ellen will surely be missed on the show.

[JoeyKingOfficialFan]

Thats it I am Stopping Watching American Idol!

[Tdafanclub]

The radio said J-Lo today

[MsSelenaMileyFan]

I will no longer watch American Idol and im sure the ratings will down even more now the Ellen is no longer there

[macharmza]

Jennifer Anisten the American sweetheart

[alixheartsyou]

THUMBS IF YOU WANT AMERICAN IDOL TO END.

[animallover16ful]

first simon now ellen!!! idols goanna suck simon and ellen were the only judges tht knew what they were saying randys aynoring and kara shes to nice and always says the same the only way idol will be good is if they get pries mogan and howie to replace them!!

[saffire862]

simon, ellen, and kara were the only people's opinions i cared about

they all have their judging personalities. and now they're gone

Kara was fired also so now the show is gonna have a whole new change D:

y kara? she was awesome

[NickJBattlesDiabetes]

I bet there wont be an american idol.. Simons gone, Ellens gone, and Kara was fired.

[singinginto2011]

PRAISE GOD!!!!

[teamdamon91girl]

I think this upcoming season of american idol will b the last the show just want b the same without simon i only watched the show for simon's comments. This last season wasnt even the same either ellen was a good judge but it wasnt the same without Paula. I dont think american idol will b around for very much longer

[xxbunnylover23xx]

Wow, that was fast. But Simon should come back on. He was the funniest. 

[lonnyboy101]

i think Jessica Simpson would be fit for it, i mean, shes not really in any acting or singing anymore, she should get into being in shows.her famous level is like 3.

[zereptv]

american idol will suck now

[vaporage]

See here a quote from Access Hollywood:

"According to TMZ and Deadline, Kara DioGuardi is the latest to leave the judge’s table. She has reportedly been fired from the hit FOX series.

“Idol” will reportedly be returning to a three judge panel format with Randy Jackson, Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez, TMZ reported."

[TaylorCullen5643]

We need a british person!! Wow.. American Idol, is over. The show had its time, just like simon you have to know when to leave. And, this show is going to lose SOOOO much since Simon left.. Because i know, After Carrie Underwood won, i only watched the show for Simon's comments..

[KitKatNat13]

American Idol will never be the same. Thats why I don't watch it anymore.
