Anyone Watching American Idol and Noticing the Disrespect?

Is it just me or is anyone else noticing the disrespect by the contestants and Ryan Secrest?

Is it the 'me, me, me' generation of feeling they should not be given any type of advice after they've sung -- that they are all just wonderful and 'how dare you' attitude of telling me what I might be doing wrong?

And I've noticed this year that Ryan is rude, too, in that at the end of the show he'll say the judges' names, Randy and Paula, and purposely leave out Simon. I think Simon has been nice this year and has given these kids good advice. Last night after Simon gave one singer some good advice, the singer said something like "well, you're not the one voting, it's the callers" (or something like that). And Simon said "I think I know how this show is run". It's like 'hello, kids, these three judges are the ones who put you as far as you've gotten.'

To me, a lot of these kids act like spoiled little brats. They're certainly not getting my votes with their eye rolling or closing their eyes and their backtalk while the judges are giving them advice.
