American Idol fans are overjoyed with who the newest judge is to join the show. Since the show rebooted on ABC, Katy Perry, Luke Bryan, and Lionel Richie were the judges. However, Katy has left the show to focus on making new music and setting off on a new tour.
Now, the show has announced her replacement, many fans say they will start watching the show again. Here is what you need to know.
Carrie Underwood Is New American Idol Judge
American Idol has named Carrie Underwood as the new judge, replacing the departing Katy Perry. She won out on the job despite many other big names being up for the role, including Meghan Trainor, Miley Cyrus, Adam Lambert, and Jon Bon Jovi.
It is a perfect choice since Carrie became a star thanks to winning American Idol, and she is the most successful name in the music industry from the show, eclipsing Kelly Clarkson, who was the first American Idol winner.
Some fans might not think it is a good idea to have two country music stars on the show as judges. However, Carrie is a lot more than a country music singer. She is also a huge rock fan and has added hints of pop to her music library.
In all, it seems that fans are on board with Carrie Underwood as the newest American Idol judge.
Fans Praise Carrie Underwood’s American Idol News
Fans seem to be in love with Carrie Underwood as the new American Idol judge. Many fans were tiring of Katy Perry, and it often seemed that Katy could do nothing right. Fans bashed her for over-praising singers and others bashed her anytime she offered criticism
Carrie Underwood might have some leeway because she is an American Idol original. Fans reacted positively to the announcement on social media.
- “She’s going to be a great judge! She’s down to earth and knows what it feels like to be a contestant.”
- “You guys couldn’t have picked better than this. Carrie is one of the reasons American Idol became an iconic show.”
- “The absolute best option for the next judge – haven’t watched in years and now I’ll definitely be watching again!!”
For fans who want the judges to be honest with the singers, it sounds like Carrie is the answer to that call. “I do have a big problem; I can’t lie,” Carrie said (via Fox News). “I feel like I’ll be very honest but hopefully constructive and encouraging.”
The big question is how many American Idol fans will turn on her when she is open and honest with their personal favorites.
