Both L.A. and Nicole agreed that they are like students to the veteran judges such as the TV mogul, Simon Cowell and the former pop star, Paula Abdul. They watched the show “American Idol” before and they know how passionate the two judges at judging other people. They are the very people that created the reality show.
Abdul agrees that Simon and she are the prime judges since they got the more experience than the other two judges. During her interview, Abdul noted that her relationship with Cowell has a resemblance with her relationships with her dogs.
