I want to take Ryan Seacrest's job. I want his job on 'American Idol.'

I would lose straight away if I went on 'American Idol.'

I was very honored to get to be part of 'American Idol.'

Look, she doesn't need to thank me and she doesn't need to thank American Idol. She does need to thank the fans who voted for her on American Idol. That's all.

American Idol transcends age, gender, ethnicity, everything.

It was a pleasure to work with everybody at 'American Idol' and to be able to be part of the 'Idol' family.
