He's certainly no Simon Cowell and that may be exactly why some contestants on American Idol last night were swooning over Steven Tyler.
OK! NEWS: AMERICAN IDOL LAUNCHES NEW SEASON WITH J. LO AND RANDY JACKSON
Last night's big premiere of American Idol Season 10 with Randy Jackson being joined by new judges Steven and Jennifer Lopez has created some high criticism and praise.
The new judges seemed to have a difficult time....judging.
J. Lo started the show by throwing up her hands when she had to try and deliver bad new, The New York Daily News. "This is awful," she said. "I can't do this."

But what they lacked in actual judging and Simon-like criticism, they made up for in star power.
You may have thought J. Lo would have been receiving most of the attention last night, which she certainly did, but Steven was equally adored.

"Aerosmith is my favorite band" was a common phrase and Steven dished the praises right back.
"Just the right amount of leg showing," Steven told one young contestant after J. Lo complemented her skirt. "That's nice."
And it may be those type of comments that's already making Steven an American Idol fan favorite.
