'American Idol' host Ryan Seacrest nominates Justin Bieber for new judge
Zap2it continues to push our nomination for Harry Connick Jr. to replace Simon Cowell on next year's "American Idol" judging panel. But it seems he has some stiff competition!
"It's gonna be different because there's going to be an empty chair at the end of that panel," host Ryan Seacrest told MTV news. "I'm not quite sure who's going into that chair, so it's a big [decision]."
He may not know who it is, but he knows the qualities he'd love the new judge to possess.
"I would want a much younger, thinner, more charming Simon," he says. In response, the reporter nominated BET award nominee, Justin Bieber.
Seacrest exclaimed, "Bieber -- he's the guy!"
Wouldn't you love Justin Bieber on next season's judging panel?

Worst. Idea. Ever
Love Bieber on the panel? I hope that you are joking. All we need is another schmuck who knows very little about voice and performance.
******* retarded idea. PIck someone who has accomplished something in life and has at least made it through puberty.
Excuse me! This kid is just starting out in music and doesn't even know the industry yet. It seems that each day the list of new judges for the show gets more ridiculous! Thank god idol is finally dying down and hopefully will be cancelled this year or next.
One Of The Worst Choices Ever in The History Of Mankind
Oh Christ. What a sick joke.
Ryan Seacrest is an idiot.
well i think justin bieber wouldnt be a good choice. I even though i am a fan i would be angry. i think the best person is michael jackson. he knows soo much but we all know he cant because hes in heaven now. Love ypi M.J
He's not in heaven . . . oh wait, I can't say that. That's offensive, right? Especially since he was so perfect and all.
How about this: Bieber would make a horrible judge. We can agree on that.
Well, it's pretty clear: Ryan Seacrest has the hots for Justin Bieber. For God's sake, Seacrest, he's a 16-year-old child!
