STEVEN TYLER AND ALEXIS ARQUETTE: SOMETHING IN COMMON

American Idol is doing everything they can to drive up the sagging ratings and former judge Steven Tyler was a good sport to dress up in drag. He livened up the auditions in Oklahoma City be pretending to be a contestant named Pepper. It didn’t take long for the judges to see through the disguise, but we couldn’t help but notice he bore a striking resemblance to transgendered Alexis Arquette. Only Alexis is younger and has better makeup. They do have similar lips.

STEVEN TYLER WALKS THIS WAY BECAUSE HIS FEET ARE KILLING HIM

It’s clear that Steven Tyler was NOT thrilled when enlarged photos of his twisted and gnarly toes circulated after he was photographed on the beach in Hawaii a few weeks ago. That must be why he is committing the fashion faux pas of wearing socks with sandals in LA. Above, he’s leaving the Pink Taco in Hollywood. Maybe sandals are the only shoes he CAN wear with his foot problem.

NICKI MINAJ: DO YOU REALLY WANT TO SMELL LIKE HER?

We used to get a kick out of Nicki Minaj’s imaginative fashion sense and bold style. But it seems the more we get to know her, the less we like her. Her gangster-mouth tirade against Mariah Carey was uncalled for and to her credit, Mariah never stooped to Nicki’s level of vulgarity. Now she’s publicly embarrassed Steven Tyler by calling him a “racist” simply because he questioned her ability as a judge on American Idol. He openly apologized, but shouldn’t have, because she isn’t worthy of a response. Nicki is simply displaying her lack of education and upbringing – another candidate for charm school. (Above Nicki is in Sydney launching her perfume “Pink Friday.”

CAN STEVEN TYLER FUNCTION WITHOUT ERIN BRADY RUNNING HIS LIFE?

#steventyler #janetcharlton

The possibility of a split between Steven Tyler and his fiancée Erin Brady has Aerosmith band mates and certain members of Steven’s family thrilled beyond words. Steven, 64, and Erin, 38, have been together since 2006, and the other musicians in Aerosmith feel she’s a negative influence on Steven (she got him back into drugs awhile back) and she has taken control of his life. The fact that Steven is gearing up for the band’s Global Warming tour indicates that Erin is somehow not included because the band doesn’t like having her around. Steven denies that they are actually “broken up” and he still may have feelings for her OR he might be trying to let her down easy.

STEVEN TYLER ‘S FASHION SECRET: WOMEN’S CLOTHING!

American Idol judge Steven Tyler maintains his rockstar look by shopping in women’s stores! The Aerosmith singer and his fiance Erin Brady shop together, but Steven likes his privacy. He has his people call ahead to upscale women’s stores and ask if Steven and Erin can have private time to shop in the store alone for HOURS. Sometimes they’re still in a boutique at midnight, trying on and piling clothes on the counter. Steven loves women’s scarves, fancy shirts, extravagant jackets, jewelry – just about everything. He always spends a lot of money on himself and Erin, so the stores are more than happy to give him private shopping time.

PAULA ABDUL HOPES TO CRUSH AMERICAN IDOL WITH HER DANCE SHOW

No Wonder Paula Abdul has had a little smirk on her face lately. It looks like her new CBS series “Live to Dance” will be direct competition for her alma mater “American Idol” on Wednesdays and Tuesdays starting in January. It will be interesting to see what kind of audience the new highly publicized judges Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler will attract to the Fox show which has been losing viewers. Meanwhile, Paula’s dance show upped the ante by offering the winner a $500,000 jackpot.

AEROSMITH IS NOT HAPPY ABOUT STEVEN TYLER’S JOB ON AMERICAN IDOL

Steven Tyler’s band Aerosmith has been in turmoil since he announced he planned to be a judge on American Idol. The rest of the band knows that the Idol gig would mean Steven won’t be available to perform as often. That means they ALL earn less money. Last year the band was ready to dump Steven and get another lead singer because he only seemed interested in his solo career and didn’t care about the band. Plus they suspected he was abusing substances and behaving erratically. The guys patched things up THEN, but American Idol could be disaster for the group, which has been together for 40 years!

AMERICAN IDOL’S BACK-UP PLAN: JENNIFER LOPEZ

What do YOU think about Jennifer Lopez replacing Ellen Degeneres on American Idol? According to Nikki Finke, it’s a done deal whether you like it or not, and both parties seem quite happy. Ellen wanted OUT of her contract a year before it was up- she said doing the show was no fun. Jennifer’s career can use a boost, PLUS she knows a bit more about singing that Ellen does. Jennifer’s diva-ish glamour will also add a visual element to the judges panel. As for replacing Simon Cowell – everyone hoped for Elton John, but he’s too expensive and too busy. Steven Tyler is currently in talks for that slot.

DOES STEVEN TYLER HAVE SOMETHING TO TELL US?

We’ve been told to expect a big announcement of some kind from the Aerosmith camp tomorrow. Let’s see – it can’t be that Steven Tyler is leaving the band because he already denied that. What could it be? Someone pointed out that Steven’s girlfriend Erin Brady is NOT well liked by the Tyler family or band members. And it’s not simply because she wears a fur coat, it’s because the band blames her for Steven’s probable fall off the wagon. He’s rumored to be down to 112 pounds.
