To be honest I don't even know who is this guy. I've been watching American Idol for about 4 years. If he is going to be a judge I don't have any interest to watch it again even thought I don't know him. I was so excited that Adam Lambert would be the judge and it will be very dessapointed, if he is not going to get the gig. They shouldn't mention Adam if they didn't have the intention to hire him, because all the Adam Lambert fans that they used to watch Idol are not going to watch it anymore, just becuase he's not going to be part of the panel and his fans are 1.5 millions including me.

you know i think idol should rethink and have music icons like steve nicks, chacha con, or bette middler as judges.  also a good choice would be phil collins.  YOU DO NEED SOMEONE WHO HAS MISIC TALENT AND KNOWS A THING OR TWO.  MARIAH IS CRAP.

What happened to Adam Lambert?  Next year's lineup seems bizarre.  Not certain I will watch next year.  The finalists are getting worse each year.  I was upset at all the great talent voted off for some pretty mediocre final 2.  Both Phillip Phillips and Jessica Sanchez are pretty mediocre.  Phillips has one song which will probably be his only hit.  Jessica Sanchez needs help in the looks department.  Some of  the other voices were better than hers.

Jonas? Not much experience to be truly qualified.

J Lo had singing, recording, acting, dancing and business experience.

Tyler had years of stage performances.

And they BOTH had FUN personalities!

Why not Justin Timberlake, Sean Combs, Keri Hilson?
