With American Idol’s ratings plummeting this season, producers are scrambling to find somewhere to place the blame besides themselves.
No, it couldn’t be that viewers — who’d always thought of the competition as one among amateurs — were jaded to learn that three of those who made it into the Top 10 had professional experience.
And it couldn’t be Paula’s increasingly bizarre antics, like last Tuesday’s critique of Jason’s second song… before he’d even performed it. (If that doesn’t confirm the show’s over-staged, what does?)
It must be Ryan Seacrest, they’ve apparently decided. Insiders say Seacrest isn’t too worried since he’s been putting so much work into marketing himself in a variety of other areas, including his radio and TV shows.
Because, you know, it couldn’t be that Idol’s teeny-bopper main fan base just aren’t into Neil Diamond and Dolly Parton songs.
