Jennifer Lopez Signs $12 Million Deal to Judge American Idol

Well, it looks like the judging panel's complete. After hearing Randy Jackson would be back and Steven Tyler signed his deal, it looks like Jennifer Lopez will fill the third judge's seat for a cool $12 million a year. Of course we're disappointed, but all is not lost. Apparently the diva rumors about Jennifer are true. Sources say her negotiations almost broke down a few times because she wanted $15 million and guaranteed movie and TV roles. So will she bitch it up for us and entertain? We're not holding our breath. Jennifer's also the reason the announcement hasn't been made yet- she wanted the new judges' panel to be announced along with her new single in mid-September. Hopefully the song is called "I'm Not Really An Idol Judge - It's Really Whitney Houston (And She's Back on the Crack)."

So a month ago when Nigel said reports of Tyler and Lopez being the judges weren't true, he was lying.

Lopez will be a bore.

Next question is: In what order will the judges give their opinion? None of these judges have what it takes to credibly give the "Last Word" pronouncement which is the opinion the producers want the audience to take away. I predict that since he has been such a good lapdawg to TPTB, Randy will move from first to comment to last. That way, Steven Tyler goes first saying whatever comes into his head, Jennifer Lopez goes second reading Paula-esque comments from cue cards and finally Randy pompously proclaims "Yo, Dawg! That was (insert TPTB opinion here)"

That's no moon. That's a space station.

Good god I thought Cartman had the last word on Jennifer when he turned her in to a hand puppet. 12 mil? She's never been worth more then 12 cents.

Oh well at least she'll be funnier then ellen

I'll try to keep an open mind, but she wouldn't have been my first choice -- probably not even one of my first 20 choices. Whenever I've seen her interviewed, she's been pretty much a brick, even if a nicely put together one. Hopefully Tyler will be better than expected. He has rock star brains rattling about in his skull and some pretty great stage presence.

Am hoping they both have enough self respect to talk down to Randy.
