Who do you think is the most credible judge of American Idol?

Randy, Paula and Simon have their own views/styles in judging contestants. Paula is always sweet, and carefully choices her words that would not break a contestant's heart. Simon is consistent at being mean, but I guess he's just being truthful. Randy speaks his mind out -- if the performance is good or awful, he'd really say it. I think Randy is just right there at the middle of two extremes. For me, he's the more objective one. In your opinion, who do you think the more believable and credible AI judge among the three?

To me all three have very good views when it comes to critizing the contestants. Simon may be cruel in what he says but that is because he doesn't sugar coat the situation. Randy to me seems to be the more belivable judge. The least believable is Paula because she trys to sugar coat everything.

This is a very good question and feel that Simon is probably the most credible of the three judges. Even though his comments are cruel at times, he makes the most sense and agree most of the time with who he thinks is a good singer and who is not. I think he is honest about who sang well that night and who did not. Randy would be right behind as he is usually honest and fair and can tell who sings well or not. I think Paula loves just about everyone.

I think all three judges have their points. Since they all basically judge from a different perspective the outcome is usually pretty fair. Randy judges the mechanics of the performance, Paula judges the song and how it sounded, and Simon looks for something he doesn't like which can be good to since the contestants are supposed to be open to constructive criticism.

I think Simon is the most truthful. I don't really care for his abruptness and sometimes rude comments, but he is usually right about most of the contestants.
