Abdul, 48, left the show after the last season and she was asked what she thinks of Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez as the new judges.
She said to TV Guide magazine: 'I'm a fan of the show, and I always will be as long as they're going out and finding that raw talent. Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler - they're seasoned veterans.
'They know what it takes to make it, so they're gonna have a very refined eye. And I'm really happy Randy is at the helm because you need that familiarity.
'I don't think there's any advice I can give them other than I'm gonna be watching.'
