Feb 11, (THAINDIAN NEWS) Much acclaimed television personality Ellen DeGeneres became the talk of the town after viewers of the popular reality series “American Idol” finally witnessed her joining the judges table in the ninth season of the show. Although reports claimed that things were not really going smooth between Ellen DeGeneres and fellow judge Simon Cowell, the two judges surely managed to hide the cold vibes between them in the recently televised episode of the musical reality show.

According to certain reports, while the episode was being shot last month, Ellen DeGeneres was said to be infuriated with Simon Cowell, who made her wait for more than an hour for the filming of her first episode as the judge of the reality series. The newest judge on “American Idol”, who is also known to host her own popular show “The Ellen DeGeneres Show”, is said to have been so furious with Simon Cowell for being late that she went on to say that she would prefer the veteran judge to be replaced.

Reportedly, the 52 year old talk show host lost her temper as she had to balance her morning chat show with the judging role. However, it seems that the two judges are trying to sort out their problems as in a recent interview to Idol presenter Ryan Seacrest’s radio show, Ellen DeGeneres described her fellow judge as a smart as well as a funny guy. Although she accepted that Simon Cowell was going to be a ‘challenge’, the much acclaimed stand-up comedienne also added that she also did ‘liked’ her fellow judge.
