Christopher Ciccone, best known as brother to superstar singer Madonna, is vying for the empty seat opening up on “American Idol” next year. He’s urging fans to call 19 Entertainment and request him to be the next judge.

Ciccone has even started a new Facebook group, “Christopher Ciccone for ‘American Idol,’” which lists the numbers to 19 Entertainment in the U.S. and overseas. “Simon Cowell is leaving ‘American Idol’, and who better to replace him than Christopher Ciccone?” reads the description. I could name a hundred.

But that’s not stopping Ciccone from trying, who claims he has 25 years in the music business, although I’m not sure two Madonna video cameos in the early 80’s count. He did however, design the stage for one Madonna tour and direct another in the early 90’s.

“Christopher knows all too well what it takes to be a pop star, and with his infamous ‘Ciccone Tongue,’ he won’t be afraid to speak his mind,” continues the posting.
