American Idol 2011: Randy Jackson ‘Simon Cowell’s replacement should be modern day Houdini’
American Idol judge Randy Jackson has been chatting about who he would like to see replacing Simon Cowell on next year’s Idol panel and he wants to see a touch of magic on the show.
Cowell has previously revealed that he won’t return to Idol in 2011, as he will be concentrating on his new American X Factor show.
So who is Randy hoping will join him on the panel? He told Zap2it:
“I think we need someone who is the modern day Houdini. A real magician, almost like a Merlin figure, wearing like a hat like Merlin. I think we need a real magician on the show now. I want to see someone to who can do some magic tricks on the panel. It’s a tough thing. But I do love magic. ”
On the rumour that former Idol contestant Adam Lambert may take the seat Randy added:
“I don’t know if he’s the next judge, I’m not sure if that’s what he wants to do or if that’s what he needs to do in his career,”
We’d love to hear who you’d like to replace Simon….personally we think Mr Lambert would do a great job! Leave your comments below.

I think that Adam Lambert would do an awesome job as a judge, he is a fantastic singer and entertainer, he has charisma, and knows what to look for in the next american idol, , i think he will be objective, and kind with constructive criicism, he has such a vibrant personality that he will bring alot of spice to the show
Jess,
Hope Randy will plan a show “American Idol Special 2011″ seeking constants to be the next Simon.
