Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted July 30, 2010 Members Share Posted July 30, 2010 Jennifer's career in both movies and music is over, so her hasbeen ass might as well try to make herself happen on TV when Idol still has some of its audience left. Trust me, I will be shocked if this show lasts two more seasons without Simon. And this brings truth to the known knowledge that J.Lo was nothing more than an updated and poor man's Paula Abdul of the late 90's/early 00's. You know, sh!t voice, flashy music videos, and full on choreography, while trying desperately to get street/hip-hop credibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted July 30, 2010 Members Share Posted July 30, 2010 Here are the GFY Jennifer writeups. I just love them http://gofugyourself.celebuzz.com/jennifer_lopez/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted July 30, 2010 Members Share Posted July 30, 2010 Wow, what a circus! At least it's not Perez Hilton. JLo can't sing or act for [!@#$%^&*], she was a good dancer who got lucky. I do think marriage and motherhood has brought her *some* humility however. She like Paula is out of her league judging kids who could sing her under the table though.

Members Cheap21 Posted July 30, 2010 Members Share Posted July 30, 2010 she's in the same position Paula Abdul was in when she first landed Idol and look what it did for her career as far as making her relevant again. Actually Jennifer is nowhere near as obscure now as Paula was back then. No one really cares about Jennifer's music anymore so she might as well try something else within the field.

Administrator Toups Posted July 30, 2010 Administrator Share Posted July 30, 2010 JFTB and LDCAT - two of my JLo favs. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted July 30, 2010 Members Share Posted July 30, 2010 At least Paula was batshit crazy and entertaining in that way. Jennifer is nuts and takes herself way too seriously. She has a very grating and unlikeable personality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted July 30, 2010 Members Share Posted July 30, 2010 Idol never made Paula relevant again -- she still doesn't have a music career. It made her a pop culture name for being goofy and loopy, which is fine, and I love Paula, she was the main reason I stayed with the show after it went to pieces, but she was really only mostly famous again in the context of Idol. Besides, Paula was with Idol when it became a huge hit, and she was part of the reason why. If she had just come in this year I don't think she would have had as much notice from the public. My guess is that Idol will do about as much for JLo as it did for Kara, and won't have any real impact on her fame one way or the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bellcurve Posted July 30, 2010 Members Share Posted July 30, 2010 I guess we can't count on anymore appearances from Mariah Carey or the use of her song catalogue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cheap21 Posted July 30, 2010 Members Share Posted July 30, 2010 No Paula doenst have a music career but Idol did make her relevant again. Before it, people were thinking Paula who? She was an 80s hasbeen completely unknown to most the younger generation which Idol was aimed at. It did give her alot of press, coverage, and exposure and she became iconic along with the other 2 judges bc of this show. Kara is no comparison. She's a song writer, never been a star. She's stayed behind the camera and ALOT of people never knew she even existed before Idol. Never heard of her before she joined. The show at least helped make her recognizable but she didnt do it to be a celebrity. Her strength and succes has been behind the scenes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted July 30, 2010 Administrator Share Posted July 30, 2010 I think Mariah's gonna go to X-Factor as the third/forth judge/mentor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted July 30, 2010 Members Share Posted July 30, 2010 She became iconic with the context of Idol, yes, but outside of Idol, most of the publicity she has gotten has just been if she's a mess. Really, none of the judges have had publicity outside of Idol. That's why I don't think JLo will really see any big increase in her profile from the show.

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted July 30, 2010 Members Share Posted July 30, 2010 Sony Music has an affiliation with both Idol and X-Factor, so they could still use her Sony-era recordings on the show, I would assume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted July 30, 2010 Administrator Share Posted July 30, 2010 And Simon chose Nick as the host of America's Got Talent, so there's that connection too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
