A REAL TALENT SCOUT TO JUDGE AUSSIE IDOL

A talent scout for Sony Music in Australia will get the job Paula Abdul was rumored to be taking -- judging on the Australian version of American Idol . Jay Dee Springbetter will be replacing fired panelist Kyle Sandilands. In an interview with the Australian Associated Press (AAP), Springbetter said, "What I do for a day job is pretty much assess talent and the one thing I've learned over the years is that you've just got to be honest with people. The industry is harsh, and sometimes you need to be harsh, but all I can do is try and give them the advantages of my experience."
