Celebrity news and
gossip sites are all focused on the latest changes in the twelfthand upcoming
season of the hit reality show American Idol. After Lopez and Tyler’s
announcement that they are leaving the show in its coming season, AI producers
are tapping R&B artist Nicki Minaj and (reportedly) songbird Mariah Carey
to be the newest judges. Carey, allegedly hung up on the show’s producers after
receiving news that she will not be the lone female judge of the show as Minaj
is almost a “done deal” and 99% sure to be part of the show. It is no secret
that Mariah is not a fan of Nicki and the former doesn’t want the latter in the
table. The producers think that Marian and Nicki’s conflict will be good for
the show. Names of rappers Diddy, Kanye West, and even Snoop Dogg (which
happens to be Snoop Lion now) also surfaced as candidates to be Idol’s next
judges.
Well, the coming
judge shuffle drama is not done yet as celebrity
news and gossip sites have confirmed that the show’s lone original judge is
also relinquishing his post. Randy Jackson was the only judge to have endured
all of the eleven seasons of the hit TV show which will also be changing soon.
Jackson, sources said, will instead be a mentor in the coming season. Because
of this latest development, the Idol producers are reportedly looking for
someone from the country music genre and will also be looking for a fourth
judge (again) for the show.
The judges’ seats
have seen various faces coming and leaving American idol. Season after season,
various AI judges came and left the show. Originally, creator of the show Simon
Fuller, singer Paula Abdul, and Randy Jackson were the show’s first judges.To
spice things up, Kara DioGuardi was added as the fourth judge for the show’s
eighth season.In season nine, Abdul left and Ellen DeGeneres replaced her. The
very next season, Cowell also left the show with DioGuardi and DeGeneres as
Latina bombshell-singer Jennifer Lopez and Aerosmith front man Steve Tyler
replaced them for the tenth and eleventh season of the show. When will this
continuing saga for the Season 12 American Idol judge lead to? Follow us on twitter to check the latest Idol updates
