Got it, thanks for the correction.

I think you're missing my point.

I like it better than Idol already. The Randy/LA Reid comparisons are funny. They r both black I guess!

I liked Nicole much more than I thought I would. Her Herve Leger dress was divine.

The English one is rubbish, so don't waste your time and give Cowell more of your money.

I don't think Nicole didn't give any constructive advise on what the contestants did right or wrong. She was very general. "You were great or you are a star." She was ok but she needs to be a little more helpful.

When she was judging The Sing Off she was actually thought of as one of the worst reality show judges because of that very reason. She gives no real feedback, and if you have ever watched that show the only time she gave constructive criticism is when either Ben Folds or Shawn Stockman said something, and she's basically just agree with what they said.

I don't think she's a very good judge.

I was so disappointed when I saw that she was one of the judges.

Only for 2 years as a touring member. He only appeared on one album, which wasn't one of their popular ones. He was just brought in since Ross Valory was kicked out. In other words, no real name before Idol.
