American Idol”: the ride

You're going to Hollywood! Hollywood, Florida, that is:

Here comes the "American Idol" theme park attraction. When the attraction--which could serve as an "Idol" farm team--opens in late 2008 at Walt Disney World's Hollywood Studios, aspiring singers will audition before a live audience, including three judges who could be selected from the crowd.

If the Fox network thinks this will work in Florida, you know they've got to be thinking of a Vegas variation, too. Which might be a stroke of genius.

Some cherishable Simon Cowell quotes, via Wikiquote.org:

"That was just pathetic."

"I've been known to call someone the worst singer in the world... but you by far are the worst singer in the universe."

"I never want to hear that song again. I cannot stand it. I'm allergic to it."
