Who Would Be a Great Celeb Idol Judge?
![]() |
Fantasia: I love Michael Jackson to death. I think he should be a judge. Despite all the crazy stuff, Michael Jackson is still the best, he's very talented. We need to try to make that happen.
Vanilla Ice: I would be a good guest judge. I would be myself and I would have fun with it. I'd make sure everybody was smiling. Simon's got everybody frowning and it's entertaining, but it gets on your nerves after a while. I think I would be the one that kind of lightened everybody up a little bit.
Gloria Estefan: Judge Judy! She's my idol. My friends call me J.J. because I was gonna be a lawyer. Judge Judy is not a musician, but who cares?!
Darryl McDaniels:(Run-DMC): Did Prince already do it? He should sit there. Also I would say somebody like Paul McCartney or Eric Clapton or Sheryl Crow – real musicians.
Scott Stapp: Who would be a great guest judge? Me!
Tracy Morgan: My mother – because she tells the truth.
Queen Latifah: Whitney (Houston) would make a great guest judge. She's funny and spontaneous and she's one of the greatest singers ever on earth. And she's not mean-spirited, so if somebody came in there and was really bad she'd be able to tell them.
Andy Roddick: Lionel Richie would be terrific. He's had so much experience, so many hits and he's a good guy – he'd be really helpful.
Nick Cannon: Whitney Houston.
Adam Rodriguez: (CSI: Miami): David Bowie would be pretty cool. I saw him on Extras on HBO – he was great.
Ruben Studdard: I would be a great guest judge. I'd be more like Randy Jackson.
