Simon Cowell says neither Howard Stern nor Madonna is the right choice to take his place on American Idol.
In a press call yesterday evening, he dismissed talk about Stern and doubted Madonna would have the time, but said gossip blogger Perez Hilton, who has his own music label under Warner Music Group, might be a good fit.
“Perez would be funny,” Cowell said. “He’s got good taste in music, he’s got a personality, that could work.”
And he would love to have Lady Gaga as a mentor for the contestants. “She is the most relevant pop artist in the world right now,” said Cowell. “And she’s very smart. I like her.”
(Cowell didn’t discuss reports about his possible engagement to Mezhgan Hussainy; a Fox spokeswoman said that there would be “no personal questions.”)
