As you may have heard, Jennifer Lopez has decided to call it quits with “American Idol.” Now a certain famous songstress is in “serious talks” about becoming a judge on the show. It seems like this would be a great move for “Idol” to have someone of this magnitude to be a part of the show on a permanent basis and might be what the show needs to hold them down against the competition. Speaking of competition, the songstress’ husband is the host of another talent searching show so I wonder how that will work out. Find out who it is below.
Mariah Carey came to fame for her powerhouse vocal chords – but does she have what it takes to mentor aspiring singers?
“She’s in play,” an insider tells PEOPLE. “They are in serious talks.” Since the show began switching up the panel when Paula Abdul left in 2009, the only original judge on the panel is Randy Jackson, who has collaborated with Carey throughout her career.Not that is seems like a bad gig: “I love everybody. I love all the guys on the show,” Lopez told the Today show upon hinting, “I am thinking that it’s time for me to go.”
