WTF, over?? What does she know about the music biz? I thought the same thing, when I first heard the news. Then I remembered that Paula Abdhul wasn't much of a singer, herself. Paula's voice was manipulated, over-dubbed and enhanced to the point of being almost entirely synthetic. Ellen has said she'll be representing the fans' point of view. And as one reviewer pointed out, the comedy bits coming from Ellen will be planned, not the unscripted faux pas that plagued Paula's seat at the judges table.

Even if she is representing the "fans' point of view" I think a judge for a music show like that should have at least SOME experience in the music industry... but maybe that's just me. *shrugs*
