14 DAY TRIAL // Season 13 of American Idol is supposed to include a major revamp in both the panel of judges and tone, because a new producer has been brought on board. According to OMG! Insider, Fox’s pick of judges isn’t really that surprising.
“Look -> RT @BradBessey Brace yourselves I just heard from a VERY INSIDE source #AmericanIdol judges: @JLo @KeithUrban & @iamwill @FOXTV,” the e-zine announces on Twitter.
As you can see, Keith Urban is coming back, and so is Jennifer Lopez. I guess this means that she got the pay rise she asked for, and will be paid $20 million (€15.1 million) for the upcoming season.
As for Black Eyed Peas’ will.i.am, he’s been courted for the past three seasons, so that’s not much of a surprise either.
Season 13 of “American Idol” sees producers Ken Warwick and Nigel Lythgoe replaced by Peter Blankens of the Swedish Idol.
