American Idol Base

If you haven’t already heard, Simon Cowell will be leaving American Idol. This will be his last season. It seems he will be heading up the American version of “X Factor.” There’s rumor stating that he wants Paula Abdul to join him on this venture.

This could be the beginning of the end for American Idol. I mean, when Simon leaves, who will replace him? Simon makes American Idol what it is today and it’s hard to see someone else fill his shoes. Is this a strategic move for Cowell? Heading up X Factor will give him more money than being on Idol. Who knows? I’m sure over time American Idol will lose its steam and X Factor may rise to the occasion.

Let’s hope this season will be spectacular!

If you haven’t already heard, the new season of American Idol will hit the TV prime time schedule on Jan. 12 2010. This season will be pack full of guest judges and witty comments.

Also making rumors true, is that Simon Cowell has one more season before he calls it quits. He sights that he wants to focus on his shows, specifically the X Factor show. American Idol may be winding down now that Paula left and soon Simon will follow. How will American Idol survive?

Let’s hope this new season will be one to remember!
