Ellen DeGeneres doesn't mind a little mocking!
After Paula Abdul impersonated her American Idol replacement while hosting Thursday night's VH1 Divas Live concert, the talk show host Twittered that she loved it.
See photos of American Idol's babies and weddings!
"You're hilarious," DeGeneres, 51, posted Friday.
Abdul, who wore a blonde wig and DeGeneres' trademark suit and sneakers, told the crowd, "All kidding aside, [I have] nothing but love for Ellen, and I wish you the best of luck and congratulations on your new gig."
DeGeneres, who will be the fourth judge on the Fox show's upcoming season, Twittered her respect to Abdul.
"You've left me some big shoes to fill...unfortunately I don't wear high heels. Nothing but love for you too."
Tell Us What You Think
37Meghan, you're rude with your comments about Paula, can you do better than Paula? It's people like you that makes the world the way it is...you're the idiot and a big one at that...hummm.
you guys are idiots. paula is a druggie has been. ellen is going to be a fantastic judge and i think she will only improve the ratings. paula wouldn't know good music if it jumped up and bit her fat ass.
Ellen knows nothing about music! How can she do any good for the show. Its going to be a joke. I am sure that AL will loose their ratings. Paula did make the show. She is good at what she does. She will be missed! I'm not so sure I'm going to watch the show without her.
Al about X FACTOR!!!!! (Good luck to ellen though shes funny)
I dont think Paula and Simon were the show. Ellen will do great. Change is good. The show was good for Paula it let viewers get to know Paula. It will be good for Ellen too. I think Ellen has enough time in front of the camera and would have chosen someone less well known, but am looking forward to hearing from Ellen.
I hope AI loses ratings and this will prove that they need Paula. Give her what she's worth. She helped make this show succeed and be popular...her and Simon.
Luv Ellen. When she was a judge on SYTYCD she was funny as a comedian but after awhile I got tired of it, wanted to see someone who could really judge a dance. Its not the same w/o Paula, in other ways too. She should still b on it. How cheap can they b, not giving paula what she wants, or at least meet her half way.
There was a chemistry between Paula and Simon which can never be replaced by Ellen, well you know why. For me the show won't be the same. Who knows though, I could be wrong, maybe it will be good in a different way , Ellen can be very funny and sweet !!
Paula and Simon were the show. Do you think Simon and Ellen will be like they were? Yahhhh right
Paula and Simon were the show. Do you think Simon and Ellen will be like they were? Yahhhh right
Let's vote for Paula to come back next year... I agree she makes the show, her and Simon. Love you Paula.
PAULA ABDUL LOOKED DRUNK, HIGH, AND OLD. AND IT LOOKED LIKE SHE ALMOST FELL OFF THE STAGE, I CANT BELIEVE VH1 DIDNT EDIT THAT OUT. IS SOMEODY TRYING TO SABOTAGE HER ? ALSO WITH SOMEONE THAT WAS A DANCE CHOREOGRAPHER BACK IN THE 80'S AND 90'S, WHY ISN'T SHE IN BETTER SHAPR TO PULL OFF THOSE DANCE MOVES ? SHE LOOKS A SHELL OF WHAT SHE USED TO BE.......... SO SAD
PAULA CAN NEVER BE REPLACED ON AMERICAL IDOL. HER STYLE AND CLASS IS UNREPLACEABLE. SHE IS SO CLASSY AND SOMETIMES YOU WATCH THE SHOW JUST TO SEE HER OUTFITS AND HAIR STYLES. HER RELATIONSHIP WITH SIMON MAKES THE SHOW GREAT ALSO. SO THERE ARE THREE THINGS THAT MAKES AMERICAN IDOL A SHOW VIEWED BY MILLIONS, THE RELATIONSHIP OF SIMON AND PAULA, FASHION/HAIRSTYLES/MAKEUP OF PAULA AND THE CONTESTANTS. THAT'S IT.
Paula Rules
I like Ellen, but she does not qualify as a judge for this type of show.
Go to Youtube and do a search on the 1976 Swine Flu. You'll realize how our government is in bed with the Big Pharma and the medical industrial complex. The last vaccine killed many and harmed countless innocent souls. The US paid out over a billion dollars in damages. Today Big Pharma is not held responsible for harm caused by the vaccines they push on us. Good luck getting compensation from a broke government for the harm it will cause us. JUST SAY NO!
I will not be watching AI anymore. Paula made the show, she's the reason why I watched AI. Love you Paula, will miss you dearly.
I will not watch American Idol anymore because Paula is being replaced. She was a huge part of why people actually watched it. GO PAULA
Where are Paula's prescriptions when she needs them??
I personally am disappointed with Paula. I have always supported her and was very upset when I learned she was not going to be on Idol this upcoming season. However, I am dissapointed with Paula's mockery - I thought she was above that type of behavior - she (or the producers) was out of line on this one. I do wish Paula all the best and I will miss her greatly on Idol.
