Kara DioGuardi Talks About Hollywood Week

Posted: 13 Feb 2010 05:56 PM PST

American Idol judge Kara DioGuardi recently talked about Hollywood Week on a press call. After completing a second season of Hollywood auditions, Kara shared her perspective on the Season 9 Hollywood Week experience.

Hollywood Week auditions saw the addition of Ellen DeGeneres to the judges panel. Kara commented on Ellen saying, She had a really good handle on whether a contestant had potential, whether they had a star quality. She knew if something was off in the vocals or in their performance, and I thought she delivered the message with kindness, but also had criticism in there.

The addition of Ellen also means that Karas not the new girl any longer, and shes feeling good about her second season on American Idol. Im definitely more relaxed and more comfortable because Im a little bit more used to being [on] TV, Kara stated. Every time we had an audition city there was a new judge. With Hollywood Week, we had Ellen. So I just wanted to kind of keep open to everything and just be in the moment and try to be the best judge I could be. She said it was scary to go from a behind-the-scenes songwriter to judging talent in front of 30 million people. I think that people thought I was very serious last year, like I didnt maybe have a sense of humor. I feel like I do, that actually Im more of a goofball than probably anybody on that panel. Perhaps Ellen will bring out Karas goofy side too.
