I am happy that we have been able to sort out our differences and find an amicable solution to our problems.
When I look at it now, the whole punk thing is sort of comedy in a weird way.
He was one of those hah-hah funny sort of auditions. The guy had people rolling around in hysterics all day and I'm like what's the point? This is a joke. So I just said no.
They all hate each other deep down, but they're not gonna say it on camera. Ask Kelly how many congratulation e-mails she got from the other contestants. Probably zero. But that's the music business. In a positive way, I like that. I like the fact that people enter the show because they might win.
Personally, I hope to find the next Siegfried and Roy.
Everything's open this year, isn't it? There are four, five, six people who could win.
The Super Bowl's a good analogy. You've got to make people look forward to it once a year.
Ryan, with respect, I do this for a living. I don't play at it like you.
Complete and utter mess. It was 'We Will Rock You, Gently'.
Creed would not be caught dead on this show. You've got to start showing, at this point, another side. You can't keep doing this week after week after week.
We don't want to spread any rumors here.
To me, it was absolutely crystal clear at this stage last year that Carrie Underwood would win the competition. So it all felt a bit obvious. Whereas this year, I could argue the case for seven or eight of the contestants. I genuinely don't know who's gonna win. I've got a feeling who are gonna make the finals. But once you're in the finals, I think you're gonna have the most open competition you've ever seen, which for us and the viewers at home, that's a good thing.
I think he knows how to articulate something that people are entertained by and still be true to the message he's trying to send, ... very aware of himself.
I thought it was like the never-ending song. It was so bland. You were like a robot during that performance.
