According to ScreenCrave, the news was announced yesterday at the Comic-Con Disney panel.
  • American Idol News: Rumors have been going on forever about Jennifer Lopez’s future at American Idol. But those rumors just became an actuality – Jenny is leaving Idol. And so is Steven Tyler. Both judges have quit the show. According to Billboard, Tyler said that after long, hard thoughts, he’s decided to “let go of [his] mistress,” and return to his “first love, Aerosmith.” Jenny confirmed she was leaving the show on Ryan Seacrest’s radio show this morning. Basically, she’s just too busy being a superstar that she doesn’t have time to be a TV star. And yes, there’s already talks of who’ll be replacing the judges. Billboard reports that Mariah Carey is ‘in serious talks’ to judge Idol.
