HOME > World Idol'American Idol' producers dream of 'World Idol' face-offApparently we aren't the only ones enthusiastic about the nationalisitic hook in Big Brother Africa, which brought together one houseguest from 12 different countries. E! Online reports that Simon Fuller, the producer of Fox's American Idol, CTV's Canadian Idol, the U.K.'s Pop Idol and various other worldwide Idols (including the first Arab Idol, called Superstar and won by 19-year-old Jordanian Diana Karzon), now envisions a global Idol featuring winners from the different Idol versions. The show is preliminarily being positioned as a two-hour special for the December holiday season, with the winner being announced a week later.
Although we would not be surprised to see a global Idol materialize, count us as skeptical that Ms. Clarkson will compete for the U.S. -- but we wouldn't be surprised to see her sing as a non-competitor during the special, while Idol 2 winner Ruben Studdard competes for America. |
