Simon Cowell thinks Carrie Underwood<\/a> was a “good choice” to be the new judge on ‘American Idol.’ <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Simon Cowell thinks Carrie Underwood is a ‘great choice’ as American Idol judge<\/p>\n

It was revealed last month that the ‘Before He Cheats’ hitmaker will be replacing Katy Perry<\/a> as a judge on the singing competition show and the music mogul – who was one of the panellists when Carrie won the fourth season of the talent contest in 2005 – is very happy for the country star.<\/p>\n

Asked about Carrie’s appointment alongside Luke Bryan and Lionel Richie, Simon told E! News: “I think it’s a good choice.<\/p>\n

“Carrie, we go back a long way. I remember her audition like it was yesterday. She was so good, she’s such a sweet person.” <\/p>\n

When asked if Simon had any tips for being a judge for Carrie, Simon advised that you have to be honest with your opinions.<\/p>\n

\nHe added: “You just gotta say how you feel.<\/p>\n

\n“It’s not that difficult doing this job, I promise you. We all feel the same things and we don’t agree, thank God. Otherwise, life would be boring. And just enjoy it.”<\/p>\n

\nCarrie recently vowed to be “honest” on the show, but also wants to be “kind” because she doesn\u2019t want to crush the contestants’ dreams.<\/p>\n

\nSpeaking during a surprise appearance at SiriusXM\u2019s \u2018Music Row Happy Hour in Las Vegas\u2019, she said: “I think I can be honest and constructive, but still kind. And I think that\u2019s the whole point, because people are coming in and it\u2019s dreams. You\u2019re part of somebody\u2019s story from that moment on.”<\/p>\n

\nDespite her country music background, Carrie believes her career has shown enough versatility over the years for her to be credible in commenting on many other genres.<\/p>\n

\nShe said: \u201cI feel like I\u2019ve been so blessed to obviously be so rooted in country music, but I\u2019ve been able to be a part of many other genres or music as well.<\/p>\n

\n“I mean, I\u2019ve got a song with Papa Roach right now. It\u2019s a lot of fun.<\/p>\n

\n“I like to think that I am versatile. And, hopefully, when I listen to people come and audition, I can have any lens I need to put on in terms of what music I\u2019m thinking.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
