and the bashing continues...

Another thing... hey, I'm on a roll now! I read People.com everyday. I get the magazine, which I love, but sometimes I just like to read the very latest on those celebrities. It looks like Rosie O'Donnel is at it again, and so is Trump. This time, it's not each other. Trump is accusing Tom Brady of The Apprentice's low ratings. He thinks that there was plenty of other T.V on last Sunday that was just as good as a football game. The Donald is just trying to blame the lowest rating's he's ever gotten, on someone else, and since Football was what everyone was watching on Sunday, he chose to pick on Tom. Although, he can't since the game was over at 8:30 and the The Apprentice was not on until 9, so he has no one to blame, but himself.

Rosie on the other hand is now busy bashing American Idol judge's. I agree with her in the sense that the judge's are in fact a little harsh on the singer hopefulls. Simon Cowell, is known for his nototorius insults, Randy has been known to agree with Simon and join in on the bashing and Paula Abdul, well, she's just in her own little world these days. I personally did not watch either day of the 2 hour premiere, but from what I have read, it seems as though they are only showing the one's that cannot sing but think they can. This season's premiere was watched by 37.3 million viewers. Not too shabby. I did see a few that they had shown previews of and if they got much worse than those people shown, I'm having a little doubt that the one who wins in May, is really American Idol worthy. There are some people who should save the embarrassment of going on national television simply because they think they can sing, and no one has bothered to tell that they cannot. In the end, it's their own fault. But Simon does not have to be so cruel, even if he has to live up to his well known reputation. And as much as Paula has been a little out there in the past year, she really is the only one who let's the contestants down lightly. Maybe it's the drugs... or the alcohol. Either way, these people have feelings and when it's national television, the only way to prevent them from getting hurt before going in front of these judge's is to tell them they truly cannot sing!

The contestants who cannot sing, really shouldn't go on the show, but then again, that's what makes the show so entertaining. Then again, if you are a bad singer and you think you're good? You have every right to be made fun of. The critics are with Rosie on this one, and so am I.
