R&B singer Monica’s fans are in an uproar this morning after ‘American Idol’ host Randy Jackson seemed to diss the legend with his over-the-top praise for the off-key performance of ‘American Idol’ hopeful, Ashton Jones.

I didn’t catch the episode last night, but loyal reader Trevino Allen did, and he caught me up to speed with what happened:

*Hey Sandra,

Did you see American Idol last night and how Randy tried to diss our girl Monica? One of the girls did “Love All Over Me” and Randy said that it’s a good R and B song for Monica but he thinks that the girl is way bigger than a Monica record. I was pissed off for real. Then Randy and Jennifer go on to say that she (the girl) is like a Diana Ross. She couldn’t even sing! Please!!!!!!! Randy Jackson don’t know music. He just happy he still got a damn job. How you gone be on the show 10 years and you still making less money then the other 2 judges.
