J. Lo Nixed on Idol

J. LO DE-IDOLED: Not so fast, everyone anointing Jennifer Lopez as a judge on American Idol. Demands from J. Lo’s reps were reportedly too pricey for Fox, and now the search is on to complete the judge’s panel. With Ellen DeGeneres out and Kara DioGuardi rumored to follow, Steve Tyler and Jessica Simpson are the names being bandied about to join Randy Jackson, though incoming producer Nigel Lythgoe has stated a preference for Paula Abdul, who left the show last year after eight seasons.
