Ellen DeGeneres Watching Past Seasons of Idol?

After being graciously welcomed by everyone at American Idol, as the new judge for the show, it seems like talk show host Ellen DeGeneres is doing all that she can in order to ensure that she’s fully prepared for her new duties.

According to rumors, Ellen and her wife, Portia de Rossi have been looking back on past seasons if Idol to get a hang of what’s in store.

A source tells The National Enquirer, “Ellen and Portia have been watching old seasons on DVD to see how the judges interact with contestants and audience. Ellen wants to live up to the high expectations.”

It seems like host, Ryan Seacrest has very much embraced Ellen being part of the show and says that she’ll have one definite role – cutting the “sexual tension.”

He has said, "We love Ellen, she is a superstar. She will change the sexual tension. Simon and Paula had a specific sort of tension, but this will be quite different…"

I really hope Ellen will feel welcomed! Seems like she’s already become so devoted to the show. I’m sure she’ll add a lot to the show, and it should be interesting to see how she does!

Just a quick screen grab of Fantasia performing “Hood Boy” on The Ellen Degeneres Show today. As soon as the YouTube video finishes processing that I uploaded. I’ll add that to the post.

Update: I messed up something on the video grab. So, no video from me. You can check out this professional video of “Hood Boy” though on a previous post.
