Idol Judges getting along great with the new addition
Newly selected American Idol judge Kara DioGuardi may have met America's most famous judges a few days ago but her colleagues say she is already part of the family.
"It's already a big happy family," Abdul said Tuesday at the American Idol season 8 auditions held in New York. "We are so happy to have her."
In fact, DioGuardi has already had quality bonding time with all three judges, says Simon Cowell. "We had a picnic last night. I wore jammies and the girls wore negligees and we kind of broke the ice," Cowell joked. "We had cake until two in the morning."
Joking aside, DioGuardi says the judges have welcomed her with open arms-yes, even Simon. "You were nice to me," DioGuardi said to Cowell on the red carpet about their initial meeting. "You were actually OK."

Lohan's father upset
Lindsay Lohan's father Michael has slammed his daughter's rumoured girlfriend Samantha Ronson- over reports she is to write a tell-all book about her life with the actress.
Lohan and Ronson have been close friends for several years and are now said to be in a relationship.
And Ronson is reportedly set to reveal intimate details of her life in a new tome.
A source tells Eonline, "She's certainly telling friends she's planning to write a book. It's supposed to be about her, allegedly. But come on, you know Lindsay will be all over that book. She's the only one people want to read about."
And the rumours have infuriated Lohan's father, who claims the DJ is just using his daughter to get her own slice of fame.
He says, "I've shut up about this long enough. She's using my daughter. People never even knew who Samantha Ronson was until she met Lindsay. She was just some Los Angeles DJ. And now she's writing a book? I am at (my) wit's end with this stuff. This is not in Lindsay's best interest.
"Let's just say I hope Lindsay starts opening her eyes and realises who the people using her are."
