Steven Tyler Promotes New American Idol Season

"Half these kids that we send home," Steven told Oprah, "are twice as good as Janis Joplin was when she she sang her first note. Or I was. I look at these kids and I go, 'Oh, my God, I really sucked.' I would have gotten thrown off the show. All these kids need is 2 to 3 years of clubs and they could be as good as anyone out there."
