I really like her (and you knew this was coming) but,Really, Ellen, really? The Fox Network? I sort of hope this is a veiled attempt to get hidden mic's and cameras into the news-rooms so eventually that malarky will get shut down.
Anywho...
She says in her announcement that she's on the panel because she's just like the viewers themselves with no inside knowledge or interests in the producing end of the music industry. She's just there to represent the voice of the music-buying public. I thought the public calling in was a representation of that voice. If you want a voice from the average man, shouldn't you just get an average man? I'm sure she'll be an excellent cheerleader; I hope she can actually offer criticism and critique when it's needed.
I think most importantly: an out lesbian is a permanent judge on the biggest show on television. No matter how well she'll do or if she's just Paula without the prescriptions, that fact that she's there is big. Huge. And we can't lose sight of where we've come from is a relatively short period of time.
