[@magicofficialchannel7307]

Simon's words about kelly, are the exact same words he said to her before she won amrican idol (that she is the kind of person that wouldn't change herself/her friends after winning, and this is why she should win) 😭😭❤ (Yes I'm that old i remember it.)

[@dantonlopezmatiano9026]

OMG! I remember that too!!!

[@ReverendSparkles]

Kelly - "We're like brothers & sisters" Simon - "Yeah right.." 💀💀💀

[@aposynagwgos]

Still got it

[@JJcrabtower]

The most roasted in the world by honesty lol

[@OrianaDiazL]

Only Kelly can actually get those three reunited. Excellent job, Kel 😍

[@SonjaZA]

"Paula was a brilliant spotter of talent" Truth. She told Simon 'I like this girl' about Kelly when Simon said he didn't like Kelly.

[@on_my_own_two_feet]

She was rooting for Adam Lambert when everyone else was shitting on him every show

[@esan7807]

She fought for David Cook even when Simon and Randy wanted him out

[@PrinceYamiUchihaCosplay]

It goes to show that even if Simon didn't see something in these acts the first time doesn't mean that he won't warm up to them throughout the show to the point that he'll start to believe in that act and want them to go far in the business

[@joegroves1028]

Simon showing his humility and his true self instead of pretending to be such the villain and bully is so humble and it is wonderful-that was great that he said he would do another show with the original 3 judges back together! What he had to say about Kelly was truly admirable and sweet!

[@paulgalvani2141]

Kelly's genuineness allows the guests to open up to her

[@seanmoses5225]

Joe Groves He’s not pretending though, he’s just brutally honest. That’s what made the show so great is the realness.

[@StreamHypeBoyByNewJeans]

​@@seanmoses5225agreed. The commenter is too dense to understand it

[@PrinceYamiUchihaCosplay]

​@seanmoses5225 plus he just knows how to get through to people's heads and piledrives them into reality because if no-one tells the acts they are terrible then they will go through life thinking they ate the best but with Simon's brutal honesty maybe it'll see results

[@fr0zenintimeee]

the 3 of them are my entire childhood

[@juliansmith4987]

This is so satisfying to watch. Who knew that years later they'd be sitting here being interviewed by Kelly on HER show.

[@DM-cu5hp]

My Favorite Part: Simon says he wants the 3 of them to do a show again, Randy goes to fist bump Simon (who never sees it @ 4:03), and Paula gently clasps Randy's floating fist and pulls it slowly back as if to say, "No, sweetie. It's not going to happen, but it was a sweet gesture." I giggled so hard. They're such a cute little family, and I hope Simon really does bring a show back w/the three of them on it.

[@carmengracepuentes7953]

how so? Paula was returning the gesture 😍

[@marveldcuniverse7555]

it won't happen because simon's head facing on the left direction. 😂

[@sendelokath3427]

I loves Paula Abdul. She is one of the most caring and loving reality judges I have seen.

[@shelleyj89]

I’ve always loved how much Simon has supported Kelly. He knows he owes a lot of his success to her being such a success and giving the show credibility.

[@laura8512]

Simon has change so much since he’s become a dad.

[@SvobodovaEva]

His face has as well

[@siegeaye]

Laura Schneer fatherhood changes you

[@sandraracicot934]

@@SvobodovaEva the filler in his cheeks makes him look weird

[@SvobodovaEva]

@@sandraracicot934 Yep, plus he got a lot of botox in the forehead and his lids dropped lower

[@MazBringsby]

What happened to .....his bloody face

[@emzladybrit8442]

Simon is the best Judge ever, and they deserve to be reunited! 😍😘😘😘

[@rbak2679]

American idol’s ratings back in the day were crazy. Like legit we won’t see another show or series that are as watched as American idol back in its prime.

[@thatbrazilianchap]

RK AB it’s a shame the formula phased out but it was certainly worthwhile until about season 8, then it was downhill from there.

[@kevonicus]

Fabiano Rocha they still produce more successful acts than The Voice ever has. Including the latest seasons.

[@96213sam]

@@thatbrazilianchap but season 10 was great

[@rbak2679]

96213sam yes! And season 11 as well.

[@rbak2679]

Sue W lol. I always blame Mariah and Nicki. Hahaha. Kidding aside, I just think that American Idol has been for so long, it was bound to happen. Plus, music in general is more accessible than ever since we have KZbin and Spotify where we can hear more artists and watch an audition or a performance without really watching the show is one reason as well. After Phillip and Jessica’s season, I don’t think I watched an episode in its entirety. Just the videos posted on the KZbin.

[@sarajohnson4279]

Please!! I need to see Paula Randy and Simon together again!

[@petic_rxse6876]

These 3 judges are OG and legends for American Idol ;)

[@nathanforester5993]

It's so great to see the OG Idol judge trio together, especially consider Kelly has them to thank.

[@maryhasaballa4052]

wow that is the most positive speech I ever heard from Simon Cowell. It is quite refreshing to see all three of them again but in a more respectful, grateful mood. Kelly Clarkson is an awesome person to set this up. The show so far is truly amazing

[@meshayasar3805]

Simon cowell normally does not praise people but what he said right now came from the bottom of his heart. You can tell.

[@ochiiersydh]

idk why but i cried hearing Simon's "one wish" and with no doubt thanking Kelly for being one of the reason why they're success with the show :( that is why I love Simon :')

[@TechUnboxingVideos]

Everyone loves Simon. The best judge ever

[@eliml.hnamte3033]

Kelly,you are just sooooo kind,humble and quick-thinking to invite all 3 judges who made your path, to your show.I just realllllllly admire you so so so much.😘💜

[@bryangul0]

I'm so nostalgic rn lol. American Idol was my EVERYTHING as a kid. The popularity of the show was insane! I think American Idol should make these 3 the judges again for a season lol.

[@foodculture6355]

There will never be a trio like Simon, Paula and Randy. Their chemistry was undeniable, raw and authentic. They found a gem the first season. If Kelly did not win American Idol and become as successful as she did, I don't think any of these talent shows would be around today.

[@michelleeaton6602]

Simon, Paula, and Randy all look amazing! Like no time has passed! I hope they do a “talent spotting” show again.

[@tamilynn5377]

What Simon had to say truly was heartwarming!💗

[@cayennepepah]

HAHA love Kelly when she touched Simon's shoulder saying HEY MISTER 😂😂😂 can't imagine another artist would do that to a Simon Cowell in this life 🤣

[@shawnleong3605]

One thing I would actually want to see happening is a duet from Kelly and Carrie. You have no idea how insane that would be!

[@Helena42246]

I love how Simon is so humble and acknowledged his friends the way he did. I love them all!!

[@ryker3508]

Damn Kelly, you're making me all nostalgic. I'd love to see an American Idol season 1 contestant reunion. Maybe you can all do a performance together. That'd be amazing. I'd love to see/hear Tamayra and Justin again. Edit: This comment didn't age well. Watch the two videos after this for some season 1 contestant stuff including a Justin Guarini interview!!! Still want a full reunion!

[@HjCrawford]

That would be great!

[@victoriaallen7329]

YESSSSSSS

[@lynncarriaga733]

That would be so AWESOME!

[@merayahcarey9390]

Tamyra should've become a big star like Kelly! I still remember Nikki who made into Top 3 although she didn't deserve it

[@nelle1001]

Same thoughts!!

[@sam11297]

Paula, Randy and Simon were the greatest!

[@jennifer801]

Can’t watch American Idol without these 3 judges. It’s sooo NOT the same with the new judges.

[@curtisthorpe4107]

Randy has lost so much weight and is so healthy! So proud of him.

[@JenniferBrigitteOpticalVortex]

Curtis Thorpe he's gotten skinnier.

[@DistressedAndImpressed]

He looks a bit sick imo.

[@Sara-ww2gy]

Anaiah it’s just loose skin around his neck. It makes him look a little older.

[@livingglutenfree4815]

@@DistressedAndImpressed I noticed thr way he walked out and hugged very odd to me I hope he is ok

[@gusnorthamptonshire2651]

[@diegoqueiroz1329]

I wasn't expecting those words from Simon. I was thrilled too. Kelly is gorgeous and I really like her!

[@amandasarabia8442]

Awe thank you for reuniting the originals. Very heartwarming

[@javier6465]

I think Kelly still doesn't believe Simon. xD You do have the talent! Simon words are definitely heartfelt.

[@joysalunga1236]

@TheKellyClarksonShow I’d love to see David Cook and David Archuleta 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️

Yessssssss!!!the last of the best of American idol before ratings started tanking.. David's shy humor with cook voice were fun to watch.🤩🤩cookleta was a good era of vocals

[@davidrichardestradad.e.6394]

Especially David archuleta since he performed for her randomly when he was a kid. Lol. Love him!

[@anajsahid]

OMG!!! Simon!! That was so sweet!!

[@itsslewie]

No judges panel will ever compare to these three

[@HjCrawford]

Randy has such an amazing and big heart! Love him! 💕💕

[@beckymarie4936]

I would love to see these 3 in another show in the future!

[@VisionProStudios]

I watched Kelly Clarkson totally dominate her opponents during her reign on American Idol. Then, after her win, her videos and songs one after another were just amazing. She is a unique, one of a kind entertainer, song writer, and performer. Paula knew it right from the start. Legendary talent from her too. Love this show, and the honest approach that Kelly uses. A very sweet spirit. Wishing you many years of success.

[@johnirvinfabul]

It's so refreshing to see them together. I feel old, damn. I want these three to work again

[@jhingbangayan762]

We all se the chemistry on camera Simon. You're so right bout that. I would love to see you 3 again.

[@hiatusmode989]

Kelly’s band are so good and i would love to be one of them cause Kelly respect them as much as they respect her.....She always give props to them after her performance ❤️❤️..

[@teresah4972]

Great interview! Kelly’s lead in to joining her KZbin channel makes me laugh every time!!! She’s a Love!

[@donnasmith3433]

Kelly you are not only a great singer but your warm heart will lead you to greatness!!

[@yankeeladee02]

Triple delight 🤩🤩🤩 Love them together and being on Kelly’s show... Icing on the cake. Simon, please follow through on another project with Randy and Paula. Such nostalgia 🥰

[@cnealz]

I’ve always liked Simon because of his blunt comments, but he was so incredibly likable and funny here. They all seem like proud parents. Very cool for Kelly to be in her position and honor these 3. Made me genuinely happy.

[@elleohai]

I love that simon has chilled and gotten healthier, but I miss my favorite terror-judge too. It was highly entertaining seeing the fear on the faces of the worst acts (besides the little kids who are still experienciong PTSD into adulthood) Becoming a dad mustve softened him up. ♥

[@ilovebabyyoda712]

Kelly seems so humble considering all of her success, that's good. I like seeing humble entertainers.

[@almostlucky]

She just "hey Mister" Simon.. 🤣

[@bennyfilysour9727]

Bring back American Idol with Simon , Paula and Randy !! 😍❤️🙏🏼

[@Buc_Stops_Here]

Wow. Simon Cowell being human and respectful among the four he started with - and admitting working with them was actually a lot of fun at the time. All those stories about him may or may not be true, but here he comes across as a decent human.

[@katinadiep9268]

Love these guys. Simon sounds so sincere when he refers to Kelly and the other great talents. 💕

[@perryguy2840]

these 3 is what made Idol special. It was balanced: Paula nice, Simon mean, Randy neutral. Idol went downhill after they started messin w the composition of the judges

[@amberkennard6826]

I so wish they would do a show together. Best judges ever. Love them all. Kelly is my idol. Her voice is phenomenal as well as her down to earth personality.

[@jadonlowe]

[@timlittle841]

Love to see a show with all three of them again,I'm sure it would do great

[@Strandedclown]

Kelly you should do one episode with your three backup singers!!!

[@micsph8657]

Why has anyone said anything about the Dancing ICON Paula Abdul? What did she do to be shut out by commentators here? I think Paula is still Fab and Corge if you ask me.. She sure is a Trailblazer for Artists like JLO, & Ciara etc.. She was an amazing judge on American Idol. And Paula needs to be given a lots of Props for her amazing News Making Animation Voices though she wasn't drunk but was going through a health situation.

[@lynncarriaga733]

I SO LOVE THIS SHOW! It’s rather organic & just REAL people! I sense their uniqueness & realness! And it starts with KELLY!

[@mobbishlove]

I'm happy Kelly, she is amazing. One the Best decision ever to take this job!

[@haroldkingsantiagosongs]

The three of them have to do American Idol again. 😊.

[@TheWesBradshaw]

The first time I ever voted for anything/one in my life was Kelly Clarkson, and I've stood by that choice ever since!

[@CarlosRodriguez-bh2ey]

American Idol worked because it was like a kid's singing show during a family gathering. Simon was like that father that is super hard on you but actually wants to see you achieve your best. Paula was like that proud mom that got on the defensive when the father was being too harsh on the children. Randy was like that cool uncle that always wanted to tell you about his achievements back in the day when he toured with Mariah Carey.

[@wade1593]

A new show with the old trio & add Kelly with it PERIOD 😭💙

[@tailabedford7404]

A show with the three of them... YES

[@bettycogswell9851]
