Friday wasn't even upon us yet, and the moment Simon Cowell dropped the bombshell that he was leaving American Idol after the end of this season, the whores over at FOX started scrambling for a replacement. First rumors started swirling about Beyonce's punani happy dad Matthew Knowles would be in the running (does he even talk?). Now TMZ is reporting that Elton John is a front-runner for the position. Elton has been on Idol before as guest judge. So far Elton nor his people have confirmed or denied this. While I think Elton would make a great judge (he is known to be a huge advocate of other people's music and is always recommending artists to listen to in interviews), and if he does take the bait would be a great edition to Idol. Elton's got that bitchy humorous side to him and is always known to cuss many celebrities out including Madonna in the past. May I say Elton's even bitchier than Simon? I think Elton should be a permanent judge on X Factor along with Paula Abdul and Kelly Rowland (who I hear wants to be a judge on the latter). Or maybe OFX feels for X Factor there's only room for one shady bitchy queen. Either way, I would watch for a moment if Elton gets the Idol gig, but in my heart of hearts Idol's reign on television is over.
