What Do You Think About The New Judge?

Kara DioGuardi is actually the most qualified to judge the competition out of all four.

I like Kara. She's very forward and says what the contestants need to hear, even if it isn't pleasant. She has said some mean things but I think for the most part she is being constructively harsh, unlike Simon who can usually just be harsh (even if he is right on the money most of the time). But she has said some really nice things too, so she's a nice balance between Simon's always negative and Paula's *ahem* drunken niceties.

Hello brifir328! American Idol will be aired here tonight and I can't wait to watch. I am curiious of everything. I want to know who's the new judge, what's her contribution to make american idol better, who will be the next fil - am contestant and who will be the next american idol.

i have been hearing alot of people say they don't like her. I didn't get to watch but a little bit last night but i don't like her. I think i will have to get to watch more before saying differently that i don't like her.
