Simon Cowell Silenced By Kara DioGuardi

Simon Cowell tells ‘Extra’ that the addition of new judge Kara DioGuardi to the ‘American Idol’ crew has silenced him because the music producer has been taking charge at the season eight auditions. “She never shuts up,” Cowell complained. As for reports Paula Abdul isn’t happy about the new situation, Simon said, “You know it’s fine. I don’t think girls in general like to work with other girls. That’s quite normal. It could’ve been a lot worse.” As for how they’ll be sitting, Randy Jackson will remain the first to comment, followed by Kara, and Paula will remain just before Simon.

Simon said “we’re absolutely thrilled” to have Britney Spears set to appear on his popular British show ‘The X Factor’. As for how he feels about the singer cleaning up her act, Simon said, “Well I’ve always said this about Britney, which is she is a hugely talented person. Everyone wants to work with her because she’s a star. The fact that she goes a bit crazy occasionally makes her more interesting.” Watch the segment at extratv.warnerbros.com.
