American Idol Judge Role Going to Gary Busey
Posted by AHalm in Celebrity News on July 30th, 2010 | No Comments yet »With Ellen DeGeneres stepping down from American Idol after one season, rumors have been circulating over who will be her replacement. Couple that with the news that Kara DioGuardi may be following suit, and the blogosphere has gone aflame with the speculation of such possible replacements as Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler.
However, we’ve been told by inside sources close to the original source that the frontrunner to replace DeGeneres is in fact Gary Busey.
The American-born actor, who is most known for his eccentric behavior and roles in Point Break and Rookie of the Year, has recently stated his desire to take his career in a different direction, and is reported to already be in discussions with FOX to sign a three year contract worth millions.
“FOX seems pretty set on going in a new direction with Ellen’s replacement,” stated one source that has close relationships with several higher ups in FOX’s Customer Service Wing. “They wanted someone who could be funny, but also bat-**** insane. So it’s only fitting that Mr. Busey would join the cast.”
When reached for comment, Gary Busey was more than jubilant about his newest role on the hit reality TV competition.
“When one takes faith in their life and is able to grasp it by the balls, it will reveal to them a new idea,” the actor said from his home in Los Angeles. “For me, that idea is American Idol: Accepting malicious energy right into copulating ample negligence in determining other lifestyles.”
With Mr. Busey set to judge in the upcoming season, the spotlight now turns to who will replace Simon Cowell. Sources who have recently broken into the FOX headquarters and hacked into several employees’ email accounts are reporting that Simon Cowell will be replaced by old voice mails left by Mel Gibson.
