American Idol

I heart American Idol but the one thing I don't like is that Ellen is the new judge. She knows absolutley nothing about music. I think their ratings have slipped and the producers hope that having Ellen on the show will boost their ratings back up. She definitely doesn't know anything about music though and it is quite obvious. The contestants this year don't really thrill me this year although I do like Big Mike. He is such a good singer and he seems to be pretty humble as well but that could just an act for television. To me it seems legit though. My parents really like Crystal Bowersox but I think everyone gives her too much credit. I think that she is good, don't get me wrong, but there are a lot of girls who sing in the same style she does she just happened to audition for the show. And even if she does win her albums won't be popular amongst the hit radio stations she is more of a folk like singer.
