News that Ellen DeGeneres quit American Idol is spreading like wildfire tonight. Ellen DeGeneres issued a statement that she’s leaving the American Idol judges’ panel, leaving another free seat at the table.

Ellen DeGeneres made the announcement in a statement:

“A couple months ago, I let FOX and the American Idol producers know that this didn’t feel like the right fit for me. I told them I wouldn’t leave them in a bind and that I would hold off on doing anything until they were able to figure out where they wanted to take the panel next. It was a difficult decision to make, but my work schedule became more than I bargained for.

I also realized this season that while I love discovering, supporting and nurturing young talent, it was hard for me to judge people and sometimes hurt their feelings. I loved the experience working on Idol and I am very grateful for the year I had, I am a huge fan of the show and will continue to be.”

Executive producer Simon Fuller also made a statement about Ellen leaving Idol: “I loved Ellen’s passion for the artists and her nurturing skills. She brought honesty and optimism to our judging panel and I will miss her greatly.”

Looks like rumors that Jessica Simpson may be an American Idol judge aren’t that far fetched, hmm?
