Congrats to one of my favorite people in the world...Ellen DeGeneres, she is the new full-time judge on "American Idol." Ellen made the announcement during a taping of "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" on Wednesday that she is the new "Idol" judge. Ellen will fill the seat left vacant by Paula Abdul, who chose not to return to the show last month."I could not be more excited to have Ellen join the 'American Idol' family," Simon Fuller, the show's creator and executive producer, said in a statement issued to Access Hollywood. "Ellen has been a fan of the show for many years, and her love of music and understanding of the American public will bring a unique human touch to our judging panel. I can't wait for this next season to begin."
