When they're not accidentally swearing and launching rival reality shows, American Idol judges Steven Tyler, Jennifer Lopez, and Randy Jackson like to offer contestants on the Fox music competition vague, largely positive feedback, no matter how bad the performance in question actually was. This isn't sitting well with Inglourious Basterds star Christoph Waltz. In a skit on Jimmy Kimmel's show last night, Waltz menaced stock footage of the three judges while attempting to dance in a most comedic fashion. Silly? You bet. But it was also funny enough for us to preemptively forgive him for Water For Elephants.
