Cheryl Cole might replace Jennifer Lopez on American Idol

It was just 12 months ago that the fantastic looking Cheryl Cole was all set to be a judge on ‘the X Factor’, and she was for a few episodes until Simon Cowell replaced her with Nicole Scherzinger.

But now the New York Post says she’s been approached about being a judge on ‘American Idol’, which is even bigger than ‘the X Factor’, so you can go fuck yourself Simon.

(Producers) reached out to Cole on Monday to see if she’d be interested — either alongside Jennifer Lopez or as a replacement if J.Lo jumps ship.
Whether 28-year old Cole can be a big enough draw will be a question for Madison Avenue as it considers ponying up again for the ad slots.

What’s wrong with Kelly Clarkson? Why doesn’t anyone ever suggest her as a judge? Or Carrie Underwood? Wouldn’t fans of the show like that, and wouldn’t it attract advertisers? But whatever, don’t listen to me I guess. There are heroes in our midst, all around us everyday, if only people would take the time to look.
