After its 2003 debut, American Idol became a part of television history. The program rose to fame in popular culture. Kelly Clarkson was made famous by it, and the judges’ names became well-known.
But when those judges showed up on The Howard Stern Show, people would start to doubt their credibility.
The radio host conned Randy Jackson, Paula Abdul, and Simon Cowell during one memorable appearance. Cowell was so affected by the moment that he started to joke that his credibility had been ruined.
Randy Jackson, Paula Abdul, and Simon Cowell appeared on The Howard Stern Show in 2003. Stern brought in three singers for them to judge during the interview. This will give listeners a preview of what to expect on the show, he said.
Christina, a young woman who claimed to have tried out for the show, was the first vocalist. Christina claimed she was turned down because of her ethnicity, according to Stern. She refuted that this was the cause, though.
Cowell spoke up after Christina had finished her song.
Cowell responded, “Well, I can tell exactly why you didn’t get through.” “Because her vocals aren’t that great.”
Since Stern thought Cowell sounded “like all the other dopes” on the show, he was unable to comprehend her point of view.
But Abdul thought Christina was a good vocalist. She did not believe Christina lived up to their expectations, though.
Abdul remarked, “Compared to last season, the bar has been raised.” “The majority of those who attended this season’s auditions were proficient singers.
