(CNN) -- Talk show host Ellen DeGeneres will join the judges' panel on "American Idol" for the show's ninth season beginning in 2010, a Fox spokeswoman confirmed Wednesday.
Ellen States: "I'm thrilled to be the new judge on American Idol," DeGeneres said Wednesday. "I've watched since the beginning, and I've always been a huge fan. So getting this job is a dream come true, and think of all the money I'll save from not having to text in my vote."
Fox States:"We are thrilled to have Ellen DeGeneres join the "American Idol" judges' table this season. She is truly one of America's funniest people and a fantastic performer who understands what it's like to stand up in front of audiences and entertain them every day," said Mike Darnell, president of Alternative Entertainment for Fox.
"We feel that her vast entertainment experience, combined with her quick wit and passion for music, will add a fresh new energy to the show."
I am sure this will be very entertaining. Everyone loves Ellen. Also I am sure this was a public ploy for Fox to get the gay community more in tune with American Idol. We all know it has gotten wack. The past few seasons has been pure trash. I have not watched since well umm umm IDK.
Speaking of Ellen did you guys see the fiasco The Atlanta Housewives caused on her show. I mean as usual they were a complete trainwreck. America loves the entertainment and Jazzy F. Baby loves NeNe Leakes "Lindsey Lohan Daddy take ya ass back to Malibu" Check Ellen face during the whole interview she was loving it!
