So You Think You Can Dance Upset Over Ellen Going on Idol
Filed under: Ellen DeGeneres
Looks like American Idol "stole" Ellen DeGeneres from So You Think You Can Dance. But that's ok, because now SYTYCD is taking Paula Abdul!
Sorta.
At the Creative Arts Emmys this weekend, judge and executive producer of SYTYCD, Nigel Lythgoe, told reporters that the Idol folks had stolen Ellen from their show and now he was going to do the same, by having Paula on his show in the future.
Uh, Nigel, not to split hairs, but you can't really steal something when they gave it up in the first place. Just saying.
All joking aside, even though Ellen was a smash on her guest judge appearance on SYTYCD this season, Nigel "prefers" Paula, but has yet to announce when and if she is confirmed to be on the show.
Ah, nice to know you're still filled with a lot hot air Nigel.

I like Ellen. She's going to be a great judge.
There is a God!!!! KIRK CAMERON TALKS ABOUT GAY EXPERIENCE THAT TURNED HIM TO CHRIST ON CHRISTIAN TV. HE ELUDES TO NEIL PATRICK HARRIS AS THE OTHER TEEN BOY…. GO TO YOUTUBE AND SEARCH FOR kirk cameron is gay. 2 videos
Ellen is a backstabbing dyke!
So will Paula have another chance to be incohearent for 8 seasons, add nothing to the show, and then pretend to get offended when people ask her if she's drunk or on drugs?
Oh goodness, who will Paula try to get with on this show. Oh right I remember the guy who gives her a strip tease!
oh, how that Diva's commercial on VH1 made me laugh. made herself look like a total idiot. ahh the irony
I'm excited about Ellen!!! Wise choice by American Idol!
Nigel stop whinning and do your Mick Jagger impersonation. It's the only thing from you thats the slightest bit entertaining.
hmm h8rz much? Paula would be PERFECT as a judge on SYTYCD. Afterall dancing is more her thing than singing. I love Paula personally..so if yall got beef Imma have to take my earrings off and ask you outside. *flips hair*
Paula Julie Abdul:
We have not yet
seen her greatest success.
Who cares. Dancing With the Stars sucks ass….and AI is going to suck with Ellen on it too.
NOOOO…why…we dont want paula on so you think you can dance. oh wait…actually….she's a better dancer than she is a singer….maybe now she can actually judge something and be accurate.
so you think you can dance is a completely retarded show. they deserve paula abdool.
I have nothing against Ellen but what does she know about about singing? I guess we'll find out.
Paula should replace that horrible woman on SYTYCD (what is her name?).
I can't watch that show because of her. She looks and laughs like a donkey.
At least Paula gets high/ drunk and slurs which is somewhat entertaining.
Yat all day! Kept looking at the T's through about the day. PS: Yes, you def. still give me B's. I want to give you C.B.'s again
Can't wait for that!
I think we're all getting bored of hearing about Paula and Ellen. Business is business, who cares.
Ok not to be rude cause I love your blog but just for fact purposes… Nigel Lythgoe is not only a judge on TV for SYTYCD but he is also a producer of American Idol. This sounds like someone just trying to strum up publicity for SYTYCD which as we all know has been gettin lower and lower in the rating with each season. Nygel probably doesn't care which show Ellen is on because he gets a paycheck from both.
Nigel is executive producer on both shows, that's publicity. He mentions Idol on SYTYCD
I didn't like Ellen judging on SYTYCD this summer, but I love her talk show.
I think Paula WOULD be great as a judge and a choreographer on SYTYCD and fans would totally embrace that. I love both shows and like Ellen for AI…it'd be a relief for all Paula's fans to know she landed in a good place where she's respected for her talent as well as her heart.
