Now that Paula Abdul is appropriately serving ice cream on roller skates, American Idol needed a guest judge to fill in for the auditions and found a great one in Shania Twain. People magazine has details:
"She's loving American Idol. She's having the best time," says a source close to the singer, who is filling Paula Abdul's vacant seat during auditions Monday and Tuesday in the Windy City. "She and Simon have a really great rapport with each other. They're funny together."
Cowell isn't the only one having fun with Twain, 44. "The crew loved working with her," says an Idol source. "Everyone thought she was a great addition to the judges' table. She showed up in good spirits and had a lot of fun. She was clearly really excited to be a part of the day."

Even though this article makes the AI auditions seem like a giant romantic orgy, it's not really all that surprising that she's a better fit than Paula Abdul. I've never sang a single note in tune in my life, and I would be a better judge than her. You could seriously put a Teddy Ruxpin doll in that seat and it would do the same job. And now I know at least one of you people reading this are getting all nostalgic for Teddy Ruxpin. I miss him too.
