I Don't Think Rap Really Fits In

In My Day Everything Wasn't So Pc.

Since We Launched The Original 'pop Idol' In England, I've Remained Close With Simon Fuller. Working As Executive Producer On 'american Idol' For Its First Seven Years Not Only Was An Inspirational Journey Into The Heart Of American Pop Culture, It Opened My Eyes To The Untapped Potential Of The Incredibly Dynamic Young People In This World.

That Makes Entertaining Television. That Is The Circus Of American Idol . We Go For The Very, Very Best And The Very, Very Worst. It's The Boring People That We Don't Want To See On Television.

I Don't Think Rap Really Fits In To 'american Idol' In The Sense That I Believe Rap Is An Art Form In Itself More Akin To Poetry, More Akin To Drama, If You Will.

And What Is A Stage Dad, Or A Stage Mom? It's Someone Who's Protective. That's All.
