    Nikki was the best judge on idol since Simon cowell. Mariah was the worst judge on idol ever on live shows she didn't even know what to say. Nikki was very crazy i agree with that but she is very smart and fun to watch. Good thing Mariah is gone! Some of us will miss u Nikki!

  • Don - 11 years ago

    I have watched idol for year from day one & this is the worst year for the judges. Keith is great but Nickki is the worsrt judge ever GET RID OF HER. I have even thought about not watching it any more because I can not stand that girl. If Idol is lucky enough to come back next season & if Nickki is on i will never watch that show again. She is no judge. She should read some of the things the viewers say & she would leave just so Idol can carry on.

    NIckie has got to go - worst must prejudiced judge ever! Who asked her to be the fashion police? She's supposed to be judging talent, which she obviously doesn't recognize. Randy is right behind her - YO! What the heck does YO mean? Get rid of them or they're making us leave next year. Keith Urban is great & balanced & love Mariah. The talent this year is terrific --all 4 ladies, though I'm voting for Kree. They score 100% - 4 stars.The judges are 2 stars - 50%. I can't believe we've wasted 5 months on this program!

    Please get rid of Randy, Niki , and Mariah and keep Keith. Randy and his dog talk and That he knows everyone and Is Mr. Know-it-all pf Music and Niki and Boobs hanging out and Mariah and never really saying anything important.

  • Patti - 11 years ago

    If that nut job Nicki Minaj is on the show next year, this is one household that will not be tuning in to the American Idol show. Who ever thought she would be a fit for this show or any other for that matter, obviously has a screw loose. It's not to late, GET HER OFF....why is there a need for 4 judges anyway?

  • linda cardin - 11 years ago

    Glad to see that I'm not the only one that thinks nicki is a pompass jackass. The producers must of been really hard up for judges when they hired her. If anyone should be elimanted from the show she should be it. I didn't think she could be any more disgusting but after watching her tonight I was proved wrong.

  • kathy - 11 years ago

    This year is the worst for the show Nick and her comments are not worth listening to
    As far as Mariah Carey she acts so much better than us normal people Randy is himself he is
    Honest and Keith urban is conning out of his shell and they keep picking on Jimmy he does s great job
    I hope next year they get rid of the woman and get steven Tyler back with Keith and Randy the show needs fun
    Then we enjoy it but this season it had been bad from the start all the drama of 2 rich girls fighting it is stupid
    As for talent it is the girls boys sing all old fashion music it is boring no upbeat music the only way we watch the show is if nothing else is on we used to love the show with Jennifer Lopez &steven Tyler they all worked well together found talented kids this is my opinion

  • Carlos - 11 years ago

    Mariah and Randy they are so far the best judges!!! get out keith and nicki

  • bebe - 11 years ago

    Nicki Minaj is a mess. She is obnoxious, sexist, belittling, and totally off base with her comments. Once in a while she says something worthwhile, but only about ten percent of the time. I hope to God someone buys out her contract and they get a decent music critic in there to judge. She may have won awards, but not in any traditional musical field. I think the show is in real trouble this year; and am not sure it can make it to the air next year. Such a shame - and to compare Nicki to Simon is like comparing lemons to strawberries - not feasible in any musician's way of thinking. True, neither are really musicians themselves, but at least Simon had a track record of working with artists. I am totally disgusted with whomever hired Minaj this year.

  • Stella - 11 years ago

    I wish the judges would limit their commensts. They go on too long. Also, Niki Minaj is NOT a good judge. She talks more about their appearance than their vocals.

  • Dyani Gulley - 11 years ago

    All y'all need to stop haten on nicki personally i think she is the best judge because she is real and honest and doesn't beat around the bush. Mariah likes everybody and says the same thing every time. Nicki brings excitement to the show even though she is not the most inspiring person she is an amazing artist due to all her success. so you guys should give her a chance. just because she's a little different doesn't mean that her opinion doesn't matter. otherwise they would have never picked her as a judge. and as for mariah you need to get over yourself. P.S. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH NICKI ALWAYS

  • charlie Johnson - 11 years ago

    I believe you should let Nicki go she makes no sense and she doesnt releaize that it is a singing show not a fachion show bring back Simon at least he was honest when you cant sign you go

  • DALE MCLAM - 11 years ago

    I THINK YOU HAVE LOST YOUR OLDER VIEWERS.. THE GIRL JUDGES ARE JUST AWFUL...... MY FRIENDS, AND I HAVE MANY, SAY THEY ARE NOT WATCHING IDLE THIS YEAR BECAUSE OF THE JUDGES......I AGREE...

  • sylvia breeden - 11 years ago

    i agree with everyone else . niki should leave the show and to never return, after this season. i like her, i like ,but this job is not cut out for her. she is very disrespectful, to herself and the contestest on the show. need more people that has more music experience to be involed. yours truley

  • Felicia - 11 years ago

    Nicki really is very unprofessional, she do not need to be a judge. It shows on TV her facial expression when Mariah speaks. I use to like American Idol, but I dont care to watch it anymore. Please get rid of Nicki

  • Mcluva - 11 years ago

    I agree that Nicki doesn't need to be there. Do you remember the auditions when it was Keith on the left, Mariah in the middle and Randy on the right. That audition the three judges were meshing very well.

    I feel if the tension was not there Mariah would be a bit more vocal. She doess care about the contestants and it obvious. She rambles a bit but she def knows what to say vocally to the contestants.

    She is like a Paula just with more vocal knowledge. She never wants to say anything negative which can be a good thing and a bad thing i guess.

    I hate to admit this but i was hoping Mariah would be like J-lo wearing her love for the contestants on her sleeves. Jlo calling contestants Baby etc.

    Mariah has potential to get better as the season goes on. I am afraid Nicki will lead to her and Mariah's departure next season. sucks but true.

  • jilly beans - 11 years ago

    Well my take on the judges are i actually like them all!!! Nicki does come off a lil too much but it is her personality so what do you exspect? Keith Urban fits right in because he's done this whole talent judging thing before! And Mariah well he critique is actually spot on, she knows her stuff but i agree she needs to get to the point a lil faster! The format change would help if they swap it up a lil, and the beef with Mariah and Nicki is clearly still there they put up with one another but seriously girls hug it out and forget the drama the tense atmosphere is hurting the feel of the show! I seriously think the producers hurt the show with the last judge they added which is nicki? who is a rapper and seriously has proven she has nothing other than an opinion!

  • gennesis gomez - 11 years ago

    and coming to you mariah with my talent!!

  • gennesis gomez - 11 years ago

    um... why do they keep saying that mariah is trying to get in on her good side?!!! people are automatically assuming that she thinks she has a good side, last time i checked she all good sided!!! every other picture of her shes not necessarily putting her self to her "good side"! and wow "the boobs towards the light dahhling!"
    its not her fault it was a coincidence she was just turning her chair!! >:( you people need to stop being sooo delusional and stop gossiping over a beautiful, legend and start talking about Nicki because she is soooo nonprofessional and ratchet!! who got the guts to go out in public looking like you ran over the circus!!! except for lady gaga.... and it Doesn't matter if lady gaga does do it because thats her and im used to it!! is like she invented it but nicki just wanna copy everybody else because she got no personal style and if she does they wouldn't even let her out in public because it would just be RATCHET & pornographic!!! they need to kck her out because what type of person talks about waffles while criticing somebody that actually takes their music serious like me im waiting until i come of age to go an AI but if Nicki is still their i think i wouldn't help but slap her!! if she says something annoying or obnoxious! sooooooooooooooo yeah anyway back to my beautiful butterfly! :) if your read this mariah just know that i love you with all my heart!!

  • Lynn - 11 years ago

    If American Idol is going to have young contestants then they shouldn't have x-rated judges. This use to be a family show. My 11 yr old daughter use to watch now we dont have her. Mariah flaunts her breasts and is poor at judging or Nikki says horrible sexual statments to these young kids. The judges need to realize that they are also being judged. Their actions can make or break their career. I wasnt a big Steve Tylor fan, however, after watching the show- respected him more. What I loved is when an artist played on the show Steve would stand up hand to his heart and show respect. Im not a heavy rock band fan but thru the actions of Steve- he tought me with that simple motion music is an art and you need to respect the icons who have mastered that art. Steve and Jennifer were fun and kind and gave great advise
    . Nikki is disrespectful to the show -the contestants -the familys and to the art of music.

  • WendyB - 11 years ago

    Why put about Simon Cowell. No-one needs to be him, the judges are great as they are esp Keith Urban and they are talented too, the right people to judge.

  • Dorothy - 11 years ago

    American Idol needs to get rid of that Nikki, she is the rudest judge that has ever been on the show. Not only is her mouth rude, all she does is play with her hair. She is dragging the show down and many people I have talked to say the same.

  • Dan Miller - 11 years ago

    Just today I was watching another talk show and they even commented about Nikki was late to their show also. This should tell the producers to fire her, if she feels that being on time is an OPTION! She knows traffic is heavy on almost all California highways... Get your driver to leave sooner so you get to your JOB on TIME!

  • Not nicki - 11 years ago

    Nicki the rappah from the crappah and bringin all the poop with her, idol has stooped to the lowest level yet, which is too bad because it used to be a decent show that in the past has produced decent talent. I feel sorry for this years batch of contestants being cheated out of quality advice from 3 judges, Keith beingnthe exception he really makes a great judge. Lets not also forget the exposure these contestans are losong due to people tuning out due to some poor decision making from an exexcutive standpoint on choosing the judging panel. Also food for thought id idol is in denial. Total votes last night 26 million now lets divide that by 50 allowed y each voter. Sad ehhh

  • JOYCE WAITS - 11 years ago

    I HAVE WATCH EVERY AMERICAN IDOL. WHERE YOU GOT NICKI SHE NEEDS TO GO BACK. SHE HAS RUIN THE SHOW HAS NO RESPECT FOR HERSELF SO IF SHE IS ON NEXT YEAR I WILL NOT WATCH. PLEASE THIS IS A SINGING SHOW AND CHILDREN WATCH IT. WE NEED SOME GOOD JUDGES THE ONLY ONE WHO SHOWED RESPECT WAS KEITH. GOD BLESS TO ALL. JOYCE

  • Dec - 11 years ago

    Mariah is always giving perfect advice and knows what she talking about, she is there to Judge talent. Nicki on the other hand, oh PLEASE get RID of her! she has to skills in judging talent and want to make the show about Sex, Waffle and clothing style. Please get rid of her. I wish I could fast forward her when she talks.

  • Judy - 11 years ago

    Nicky is almost unbearable. When she opens her mouth, I take a potty break. She acts like everyone is stupid except her. If she is on next year, it will be the first year I will not be watching Idol.

  • D Martin - 11 years ago

    Niki needs to GO - she is pathetic and a huge waste of money - she herself has no talent!
    Mariah - she is just lost and ditzy - go back to singing and not worth the money A I paying
    Randy - YO dog - go home
    Keith - ok - needs better Judges to assist him

  • sharon luce - 11 years ago

    This family loves Keith!!!! BUT thanks to fast forward we do not have to listen to that horrible whine of Nicki, we cannot stand her. If she says she is "OBSESSED WITH YOU" one more time-------- PLEASE, PLEASE, get rid of her, she is ruining Idol.

  • Nancy - 11 years ago

    Nikki is a joke, in fact Nikki and Mariah have ruined the show! I have stopped watching the show because of them. The only one who m akes any sense at all is Keith Urban. Randy is ok but he is a rerun of the past 10 years. "in it to win It:" I think this will be the last show for Idol, which is a shame but they have taken a great show, eager to have it start, to a format that is boring and the judges are ridiculous.
    WHY would anyone pick Nikki to be anything?

  • ron mancini - 11 years ago

    please...dump that stupid Minaj...what a waste.....she can't show up for work on time.It's her responsibility ....leave early from home in case you get stuck in traffic......poor excuse.

  • Lindsey - 11 years ago

    Nicky Minaj SERIOUSLY as a judge is an embarrassment. WHY would she even take this job? Clearly she isn't qualified.. she's been around for a hot minute and I bet by the time this seasons over she doesn't even have a career! I LOVED the past seasons but I'm in the first episode of the top ten and had to stop watching before it was even over. I know i'm just one person and it probably doesn't really matter but I probably wont watch the rest of the season because it should be about the SINGERS who are amazing and all i've seen her do since the beginning is make EVERYTHING about herself! (The auditions were about her and mariah.. now her and the top ten she's late...whats next???) She's just a joke. Thats all.

  • donna - 11 years ago

    did nikki trash mouth have before she got there, when she is late lock the doors please get her off the show.

  • Deb - 11 years ago

    I have never watched American Idol until this season. I only started watching it because Keith was a judge. I knew he was knowledgable, respectful and kind and would make a great judge because he truly cares about people. Nikki is a joke, Randy is boring and Mariah sits there like she can't move or she will break. Sorry Idol, unless you keep Keith and get some better judges, you will never be as good as The Voice. Why not let the judges perform once in awhile like The Voice does? I would love to hear Keith perform!

  • Sally Preston - 11 years ago

    We have really enjoyed Keith Urban this year. He and Randy are the best. We've watched Idol every year but we won't be watching next year if Nicki Minaj is still a judge. She is so crass and her comments are either sexual in nature to contestants or just plain stupid! What's wrong with you people? So unprofessional! This has always been such a good show, but Nicki and her complete tackiness is ruining it. Find another judge or two like Keith who is very professional and respectful. Even though we have a hard time even listening to Nicki, we will finish watching this season, but if she stays next year, we're gone......

  • Kathy - 11 years ago

    I think Randy has been there the whole time and is dedicated to this he does speak his mind and the last I knew that's what they were supposed to do..... Yes GET RID OF NICKIE, I love Keith and Mariah is pretty much there in person but not really in spirit.....

  • B Ordonez - 11 years ago

    so how many comments does it take for American Idol to realize what a waste of money it was to get Nicky as a judge..... PLEEZZZZZEEEEEE..... I have to go PEE when she is talking - she is just that boring....
    Come on with all the money you pay these guys for God's sake you can get better than this - even Ryan would be a better judge. I hate to be a hater...... but who in the world had that final decision - they should be fired...... BRING ON THE VOICE!!!!!!!! evenDancing with the Stars is more entertaining.... thank God for Keith and Mariah.... - now that is talent.....

  • B. Ordonez - 11 years ago

    Please get rid of Nicky... Geez I can be a better judge and I would do it for like $100 an episode. She will never be the DIVA she yearns to be..... sorry but that's how I call it. Flash in the pan and ridiculous...would rather see Sophie Grace be a judge than her...

  • Richard Woods - 11 years ago

    Where did Niki get those ridiculous looking fake eye lashes. They must have been purchased at "The Dollar Tree". She should be canned because of all the sexual comments she makes toward performers. This show is here for judging talent, not physical looks. I can only wish I could twitch my nose back and forth and make this one judge just disappear.

  • Wayne Bowyer - 11 years ago

    This Nicky person (I guess I'm out of touch as I had never heard of her before this year) but she really needs to go. She appears to either be drunk or stoned much of the time. She treats the show with little respect. Please show her the door.

  • Richard Woods - 11 years ago

    I have stopped watching American Idol this year because of Niki Minaj. She is such a fake. She talks thru her nose and she couldn't judge a cock fight fom the hills of Tennessee. I will not be watching no more until she's gone. Gosh! I grit my teeth every time she talks. Get rid of her!

  • scott - 11 years ago

    Niki is a BIG JOKE, can't stand her because of her mouth, looks,disrespect & dumbness. She looks like a PUNK. SHE MUST GO Idol is in trouble if they keep her

  • Pat coombe - 11 years ago

    Nicki is horrible choice for the show...she has caused many people to not view the show !

  • Maria Riebe - 11 years ago

    Please ,please dismiss Nicky Minaj, she does not belong there. Her sexual comments are insulting and uncalled for.

  • linda berg - 11 years ago

    i would like to know why mariah carey can not stand up when everyone esle dose! she said her dress was to tight! FT That one wear one u can show these kids they r great! its not about u!!!! got it!!!

  • Nelson Irizarry - 11 years ago

    Nicky . The she make any sense. This a singing contest. Does she get it. Can she be dismiss please.

  • JJ - 11 years ago

    I wish the judges took turns speaking first.

  • V. Linden - 11 years ago

    Nicki is still my fav! I love her honesty, candor, cute humor, and great constructive comments for the contestant!
    Keith is great too! He is very sincere, kind even if a negative comment is warranted. I love his style.
    VERY SEXY MAN!!!!!!

  • barb - 11 years ago

    Nicki has got to go!!!!!!

  • É - 11 years ago

    Nicki Minable, really!
    This bimbo is so stupid...!
    PUT A MANICAN WITH CHEAP BLEACH WIG, fals eye lashes and scary ugly make up; if it it doesn't takk, it'll be better than anaything it (she) could possibly say!

  • jolene - 11 years ago

    Nikki needs to go she makes sexual comments that are not needed tonight 3/13 she was late is chewing gum looks like a punk. How can anyone sing with her looking back at you with those big Ant glasses on. She has made this show a BIG joke this year.

  • Pegac - 11 years ago

    Niki Minaj should be kicked off as a judge. She always makes it about herself. She chews gum and is late for shows. She is annoying. She brings down the show.

  • susan cerda - 11 years ago

    it used to be very exciting and couldn,t wait for American idol to come on.. I miss simon..

  • Jules - 11 years ago

    I have not been able to watch due to firstly, I am not into the judges. I miss Steven Tyler, JLo, heck, I even miss Simon. Nicki, I cannot take her. She annoys me on too many levels. Mariah is too quiet. Keith is alright, but not my perfect choice. And, I wasn't blown away by what little I did see of the auditions. Sorry, unless it changes, I am done. I like the Voice much better. It has more class.

  • Marsha - 11 years ago

    Keith is really into making constructive comments and shows that he cares about each contestant. But, if Nicki is still around next year, I will not watch Idol anymore. She says the stupidest remarks & tell her to quit playing with her hair (wig or whatever). And, her voice is very ANNOYING!

  • Gloria - 11 years ago

    Thank goodness for having Keith Urban on the panel. He's the only sincere and sensible one there. He certainly knows his music and I think he would be very helpful to the contestants. He doesn't try to be the center of attention like Nicki and Mariah and he makes a huge effort to give constructive criticism when needed. As far as Randy, he's just there and agreeing with everything Mariah says. I think Keith & Nicki has a little chemistry but that's about it. The tension is so obvious between Nicki and Mariah and that's what hurts things.

  • Jackey - 11 years ago

    Nicky Minaj has gotta go! That chick has ruined idol!!!!!

  • Evangeline - 11 years ago

    Totally unfair poll. You should have had "none of the above" as an option. This show has become a joke. Can't watch it anymore. The two women are especially odious. Randy has run out of things to say. Time to pack it in dawg! Keith Urban is boring and totally forgettable. Gee! This was fun. I think I missed my calling. A TV critic! That's the career path I should have chosen.

  • Kevin - 11 years ago

    Keith Urban is definitely the best of the judges. His love and passion for music and singing shines through in every comment he makes. Nikki grandstands all the time and likes beign the centre of attraction, as well as making questionable comments - Randy should retire - Mariah is fine, but looks off camera all the time. BRAVO KEITH - a great addition to American Idol!
