He's a rock star that has spent decades taking drugs and drinking with other rockers, and now he suddenly had to spend time with annoying pop stars and untalented kids. Of course it's not going to be his cup of tea. Give the guy a break!

Unless they used a lie detector and it said he lied, I'd believe him.

It was obvious he was clueless most of the time. His criticism and praise were not very deep. He was a fish out of water.

He tried it, didn't like it. Now he is ready to move on. I'm sure he has no regrets, he got paid very well.

Tyler is hard rock. Idol is Pop. The styles of music are as far apart as night and day.

He's the freaking frontman of Aerosmith, he's not some generalized pop star. Of course this wasn't his cup of tea.

AHHH. But my point was to point out that he can sing other than hardwork.

The only reason I'll watch Idol now is because of Mariah Carey.

I do. I care a whole lot. Met him several times in the 70's's.. My best buddy owened a record store I always got free concert t passes, or sometimes we all just ran in thereknowing all the secret doors and such. Ahhh to be a kid again :) I find him to be very interesting. If only my favorites could stay young and on the radio forever.

Steve did right to walk away ... many (not all) of these celebrities are usually pretty phony to begin with. Most just want more "lime-light" for their personal agenda. Now, go "play that funky music, white boy - play that funky music, right".

He really doesn't need to do such a show, surprised he did it at all. His love is performing.

Steven has always been a free spirited wild man. that kind of forum was way to restrictive for his personality.

He's used to being outrageous so he has to tune it down a bit. It also has given him a platform to revitalize his career and a new generation of Aerosmith fans has been born so I think he was gently pushed off the show but I also think he was bored

What an ugly looking bugger he is. No wonder he's not on pop idol. He'd put the viewers off. He's as ugly as a bug at the ugly bugs ball the bugger.

Yeah but she's not a panelist on Pop Idol or Poop Idol come to that. I'm not a fan of Susan Boyle either. She's a fat bugger but very popular in America..
