Let's Bite The Hand That Feeds Us



I'll never understand why these people who have been on American Idol or won American Idol immediately try and distance themselves from the show once they have signed their recording contracts. I can guarantee that if Jennifer Hudson had not been on Idol and had weeks and weeks of exposure she would not be polishing her Oscar right now. Carrie Underwood is the only Idol alumni that actually thanks the show when she wins an award.

The latest controversy is Jennifer Hudson bad mouthing Simon Cowell all over the place. Extra TV has put together a nice montage of Simon praising Jennifer Hudson when she was on Idol. A couple of days ago on LA Fox 11 news Jennifer said: “He wasn’t[a fan]; someone should rewind the tapes.”


'Despite Jennifer’s claims of Simon abuse, Mr. Mean has consistently shot back at Hudson, pointing out, “We put Jennifer Hudson on ‘American Idol.’ The American audience voted her out; I didn’t kick Jennifer Hudson out.” '

I'm a huge American Idol fan and the only time I remember Simon being outright mean to Jennifer was when she wore this pink number, and Simon was quite nasty about the outfit.

My adivce to current Idols: there is nothing wrong with crediting the most popular show on TV and listing to Simon, he's the only one that makes any sense. Randy and Paula are incoherent!


In other Idol news, apparently the more religious contestants are freezing out Antonella Barba over the slutty photos and just sitting around waiting for her to be voted out!

And there is a big brou ha ha brewing over Idol's double standards!
