- Comments Off on No American Idol for Courtney Love
Posted by George on January 31st, 2007
You may have read it here yesterday about Courtney Love replacing Paula Abdul on American Idol. We are happy to hear it’s not true. The shows executive producer Nigel Lythgoe has squash all this nonsense:
I did not call Courtney Love and am afraid someone may have misrepresented me. Courtney Love is a very talented artist, but the judges for American Idol are Paula, Randy and Simon. We have no plans to add to or replace any of them.
Courtney probably wanted to hear her name in the news and figure what better place than to associate herself with the rating juggernaut American Idol. Maybe Nigel saw all the negative feedback (even from us) for replacing Abdul with Love and figure he better change course before people stop watching.
