‘Idol’ Ellen to replace Paula

September 10, 2009

Ellen DeGeneres is already receiving a rave review from the judges’ panel at America’s Got Talent, and it came only minutes after the announcement she’d be Paula Abdul’s replacement on American Idol.

“She will be a breath of fresh air on that show, a complete breath of fresh air,” Osbourne, 56, told PEOPLE Wednesday. “It’s new blood. And American Idol needed something new to happen.”

“I think if they had replaced Paula with another singer, Janet Jackson or J.Lo, it would have been too expected,” she said. “‘Oh well, there we go, another singer.’ And with Ellen, you’ve got someone who knows about entertaining, and everything that goes into it, which also speaks for the people.”
