Outbound American Idol judge Simon Cowell was recently asked about his yet-to-be-named replacement on the hit Fox show, along with who he would like to see this season as an Idol musical mentor. He also talked about the newest judge on the show, talk show host and comedienne Ellen DeGeneres whom he called a “good choice.”
“She is very responsible for people she has performing on her own show…She loves music and she has been an artist,” he said.
Every season American Idol brings musical mentors to the show to help the contestants with song choice and performance. When Cowell was asked who he would like to see this season, the choice was easy.
“I think we should have Lady Gaga because she is the most relevant pop artist in the world at the moment,” said Cowell. “So I think she should be number one (on the list). And I’ve met her. She is very smart. I like her.”
