How about Carrie Underwood?

Yes, she’s got the pipes, but she also has the personality.  We’re thinking that would be a great choice.  Carrie joins the growing list of “Idol” alums who could fill a judge’s chair.  Adam Lambert is the sexy choice over the last few days but Jennifer Hudson has also gotten a ton of mentions.

Aretha Franklin says she wants in with her buddy Patti Labelle.  Who has more cred than Aretha?

Miley Cyrus brings a young audience.  Is Miley the answer?

PS.  In case you’re wondering, JLo says Steven leaving pushed her over the edge to walk from the show.  And whom does Jennifer Lopez want to fill those chairs?  “I think, like, Bono, Bon Jovi or Mick Jagger.  You know me.  I think big.”

Mick Jagger?  Yes!
