Cruel, Cold And Unsympathetic ‘American Idol’ Judges

Jay Leno joked during his Tonight Show monologue on Friday night, “Saddam’s lawyer was speaking out again today. And he said he has never seen judges so cruel, cold and unsympathetic, and he was talking about ‘American Idol’. Oh, it’s unbelievable. Is ‘American Idol’ getting meaner? Do you think it’s getting meaner? [Audience says yes] It is meaner, isn’t it? I think they’re deliberately — here’s how out of control it is. You know who two of the guest judges are gonna be this year? Michael Richards and Isaiah Washington.”
