Rumors about Simon Cowell and Paula Abdul leaving American Idol have been swirling around the internet for awhile now. Now it appears the rumors are true. Simon Cowell, 49, is leaving American Idol next year and Paula Abdul is leaving American Idol too.
Abdul’s manager David Sonenberg, says Paula hasn’t even been given a contract proposal to return from the show’s producers.
What?!Moreover, Sonenberg says the producers aren’t even responding, leaving Abdul to guess if she’s been let go. Sonenberg calls it hurtful and rude. If true, how about disrespectful too!“I find it under these circumstances particularly unusual; I think unnecessarily hurtful".
Simon Cowell even told Extra that he’d be leaving after American Idol’s 10th season because, “I’ll have done 10 series and your time’s up. It’s time then to do something new. I think it’s time to bring in new people … Ten years is a long time.” When asked who he’d choose to replace him, Simon said, “Donald Trump.”
No offense to Donald Trump, but I sure hope Simon was joking about Trump being his replacement as celebrity judge on American Idol.
I don’t always agree with the way Simon Cowell verbalizes his criticisms of Idol contestants and performances (tact is not in Simon’s vocabulary at all), but sour-pus Trump is probably the last man on earth that Idol fans would accept as a replacement for Cowell on American Idol.
