Remember when Idol used to have people like Elton John and Stevie Wonder as mentors?

Who would you like to see mentor the Idols now - and what genres would you like to hear on the show?

Personally - I'm surprised we haven't had a Billy Joel or  U2 or Journey week...

What do you think?

I am really into hair metal. I like Bon Jovi, Skid Row, Warrant, etc... My favorite band is Slaughter. I think Mark Slaughter would be a great mentor. He is one of my friends on Myspace and he is awesome. He is a producer and I think he would be great. Genres on the other hand is a little hard to say because there is alot of great music out there. I think there should be a christian week and the idols have to sing christian music. It would be inspirational not only to the fans of the show but to themselves as well.
