If you’ve not checked in with our “Make It Stop” post on American Idol, we suggest you check it out. We’re well on record about the fact that while this show is, yes, a television force that shows very little signs of ever slowing down, it’s the very lowest form of entertainment. Check out the post here.
In the meantime, get this: “American Idol'' judges Simon Cowell, Randy Jackson and Paula Abdul say they're no crueler than usual this year, and that people who audition should know what they're going to get.
''If you don't want to hear that, don't show up,'' Cowell told television writers at a news conference on Saturday.
The talent show returned with a storm this past week, with episodes on Tuesday and Wednesday attracting around 37 million viewers. The episodes featured auditions by the good, the bad and the awful from Minneapolis and Seattle.

Just to say that people who get offended by the judges critizisim are just people not ready to deal with the real world. Like they say they are looking for the next american idol. You have to be the best of the best to compete and come on top. If you dont like the way these people work don't even bother showing up!!! As simple as that.
By the way i just watch it so i can laugh my head off of the people who think they can sing. It is that funny.

I have to say that Simon is rarely cruel to people in person. Even the Bush baby comment (which was rude, but spot on)was made to Paula under his breath.
Usually he saves his barbs for Paula and Randy to hear as the contestant exits the room.
What he tells the contestants is sometimes blunt, but always honest, and rarely wrong.
If people walk into an American Idol audition expecting to be molly-coddled they are fooling themselves.
