Katy Perry has let everybody know that she is going to be ruthless on American Idol.
The singer, who will be a guest judge on one episode of the show, says that she isn't going to "pity pass" anybody because they have a sob story.
And she also warns contestants that she's going to be as harsh a critic as Simon Cowell.
"Ok, I must confess, I'm SO excited to guest host on American Idol. I think Simon & I are gonna get along famously. He tells it like it is... & truthfully, that's how ppl need to hear it."
"This isn't like ur local highschool talent contest. This is AI! Ppl that wanna b in music biz need to know this sh** isn't a cake walk! :P "
"No more pity passing kids on to the next level just cause they have some kinda sob story or cuz they look like a replica of past Idol winners (is it me or does every year have like the nerd, the rocker chick, gospel chick, etc.)"
"Anyway, I'm just excited to tell it like it is & high 5 Simon all day. He may be devil of judges but he's riggght!"
Meanwhile, other confirmed guest judge Victoria Beckham is using an entirely different style of judging, telling host Ryan Seacrest: "I want to be nice to people. I know how it feels to stand there and be judged... I don't want to shatter anybody's dream."
