Guy Oseary to replace Simon Cowell on American Idol 2011?

February 9th, 2010 by Lisa McGarry.

Guy Oseary is rumoured to be the favourite to replace music mogul Simon Cowell on the “American Idol” judging panel.

Simon recently announced that he would be leaving the show in order to launch his new X Factor venture. IMDB reports that Madonna’s manager Oseary, is keen to step into his shoes.

“Guy has been in the music business since Madonna discovered him when he was 17, and he has a lot of the same experience as Simon. His competition just can’t live up to his level of experience and the people behind the show are slowly starting to realise it,” said an industry source.

Oseary has made cameos in several films, including “Charlie’s Angels” and “You Don’t Mess With the Zohan”, and written four books is said to be keen to raise his public profile.

“He thinks it would be great for his image. And it’s great exposure to boot,” said the source.

    Get rid of that “no-talent” idiot Ellen Degenerate and the show will be fine. Who in their right mind would hire that phoney, not funny “fish-out-of-water. Send her into retirement so we don’t have to look at her face or listen to that irritating voice and the garbage that comes out of her mouth!
