Simon Denies American Idol Feud… Again

April 17, 2009 by Jeanne

Simon Cowell is doing damage control and he’s not the first to deny that there are any problems with the world’s most popular talent show.

OK! magazine’s current cover story claims that there is a huge rift between American Idol judges, Kara DioGuardi and Paula Abdul. Even in the article about Simon, the mag says that during this week’s show, the ladies were barely able to look at each other. I have to disagree with OK! because Kara and Paula were dancing together during Matt Giraud’s “sing for your life” performance (although, I had to admit that it did look fake).

Simon said: "They both seem to get along well. As far as I’m concerned, we’ll all be back on it next year… There’s no weirdness going on behind the scenes."

What do you think? Are things weird between the judges? They can deny it all they want to but I think something is wrong. You can just see how Kara is not only left out of stuff but she’s mocked and even ignored at times. Simon and Paula seemed to be making an extra effort to be friendly just to leave Kara out, in my opinion. It’s pretty strange but I will say that I respect Randy since he seems to be the only one of the original three judges to be taking the high road.
