AMERICAN IDOL GETS A NEW JUDGE

After the lowest ratings ever last year, American Idol is mixing things up this season and adding a fourth judge.  She is songwriter Kara DioGuardi, and she’s written songs for Britney, Gwen Stefani, Pink, Leona Lewis, and Nicole whats-her-name from the Pussycat Dolls (pictured above) among others.  Although I looked at the list (on her website here) and I’ve only heard of one of these fuckin songs, and that one sucked.  So I guess you could say I’m not impressed.  Anyway, Us magazine says,

DioGuardi will appear at the judges' table with Paula Abdul, Simon Cowell and Randy Jackson on the eighth season of the hit show, which premieres in January.“We are turning the heat up on Idol this year and are thrilled to welcome Kara to the judges' table," show creator and executive producer Simon Fuller said in a statement."She is a smart, sassy lady, and one of America's most successful songwriters. We know she will bring a new level of energy and excitement to the show," Fuller added.

Oh it's working already Mr. Fuller.  This has added so much excitement I can barely control my breathing.  I can’t believe they got Kara Diogardy.  They must have paid her a fortune.  Karla DioGarmi will bring in viewers by the dozen.  "Boy that Tara D’Gwardi really had something to say", people will exclaim.
