Hollywood's Grand Dame of Gossip and Style
Being the front man of one of the most famous bands of all time is not without its dangers. Just look at Aerosmith‘s Steven Tyler. Back in 2009 Tyler fell off stage during a concert in South Dakota and sustained neck, head, and back injuries. He’s at it again, just this past Tuesday he received facial injuries and lost teeth when he fell in Paraguay… in his hotel room shower.
Jennifer Lopez is still undecided on if she’ll be returning as judge on next season’s American Idol. She’s a busy girl these days. Her music career is on fire, she’s working on a reality show with her husband, and she’s being cast in some up coming movies. Well Fox and Idol producers are starting to get their plan B in order in the event she doesn’t return. They have a few favorites who may sit in J-Lo’s next season.
Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler went to desperate lengths to get high in the throes of his drug addiction and even hid cocaine in a drum on stage so he could take a fix during shows.
Apparently, people are sensitive to the point where one can no longer play the Banana game with the name “Muck” anymore.
This is what happened with ‘American Idol’ judge Steven Tyler.
Last week, Tyler joked with an Idol hopeful, poking fun at the contestant whose last name is “Muck.” Insert middle school level joke here.
Because of this, several people complained to the Fox network that Tyler’s remarks were in poor taste thus making Fox release an apology for Tyler’s behavior.
Via THR:
“There’s a black card that starts the show tonight,” [Ryan] Seacrest said. “It starts with, ‘American Idol would like to apologize for last week’s outrageous behavior by Steven Tyler. Mr. Tyler has been warned and assures us it will never happen again.”
Amazingly, Fox did choose to air the footage in the first place leading us to believe that this is merely another way to drum up publicity for the show.

The judges won’t be the only thing different in the upcoming season of ‘American Idol‘ on Fox. In September, Idol announced that Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler signed on to fill two of the empty judge seats on the show. You would think the new Judges would be all the talk for the new season of American Idol, which kicks off January 12th on Fox, but there are bigger changes coming to this season – Call it a bit of a facelift or make over for it’s 10th season. According to executive producer Nigel Lythgoe, contestants will be faced with a series of new challenges. Think American Idol meets NBC’s ‘The Apprentice.’ Lythgoe wants to better prepare the contestants for the music industry and will be having them compete in weekly challenges. Contestants will see who can make the best music videos and promote themselves and a they will have a chance to work with a band and dancers for an awards show-style performance. Hmmmm! This could be interesting!
Per MTV:
The biggest tweak, however, has to do with the mechanics of the show — namely, the elimination of the round of 24 that shrinks the cast down to the final 12. “I didn’t think [the top 24] were very good, I was bored with them by the time they got there,” Lythgoe said. It was not specified, however, if the adjustment means that judges will pick the top 12 or what will replace the shows that formerly made up the early audience voting rounds.
To be honest with you, I’m sort of interested in this new Idol. Seeing contestants perform and then put their ability to survive the tough music industry seems like it could be pretty entertaining. So with all of the tweaks that they are making would you be more likely to watch the new season now? I may have to check it out.

In perhaps the worse kept secret in the history of Hollywood, Fox officially announced the new judges joining vet Randy Jackson for the 10th season of ‘American Idol.’
As reported weeks ago, singer/songwriters Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler (of Aerosmith) will join Jackson at the judges table while host Ryan Seacrest will continue to spray glitter onto the contestants as they float by him on stage.
Via Digital Spy:
“I’m looking for the next Michael Jackson,” said Lopez. “We’re looking for the best American Idol ever. I’m so excited, I really am!”
I wonder if Chris Brown plans on trying out?

Jennifer Lopez has reportedly clinched a $12 million deal to be a judge on “American Idol.” Lopez has been in negotiation with the show bosses about joining the panel following the departures of Simon Cowell, Ellen DeGeneres, and Kara DioGuardi. According to earlier reports, Lopez was asking for $15 million and also demanded for a film and TV show from the companies which produce American Idol – Fox, Fremantle, and 19 Entertainment. But those demands were turned down.
Per CBS News:
“She was angling for an overall deal at Fox, including a put picture, to keep the movie career going. But Fox said ‘no,’” an insider said. However, a source at Fox told TMZ Tuesday that these excessive demands are untrue and were produced by people who resent the show. The source also insisted that negotiations have been “normal” and are now a “done deal.”
UsMagazine cited anonymous insiders as saying that “Idol” contracts are currently being signed by Lopez, fellow newcomer Steven Tyler and Idol veteran judge Randy Jackson. Fox is said to have delayed the official announcement of the new judging panel because J-Lo wanted it to coincide with the release of her first single. Lopez recently signed on with record label Island Def Jam and is working on her first album with them called “Love?” According to Us, an official announcement is expected in early October, before auditions begin for the tenth season.

The revolving door on the “American Idol” judges’ table may be starting to spin out of control. First Simon, then Ellen, and now Kara! Fresh off the heels of Thursday’s shocking news that Ellen DeGeneres would be leaving “Idol” after just one year (read about that here), TMZ reported later in the day that two-season veteran Kara DioGuardi had been fired from the show. No great loss there!
We’re told the show will be going back to a three-judge format and assuming all deals are finalized, the judge’s panel will consist of Randy Jackson, Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler. We’re told the only way Kara could get a reprieve is if the J-Lo deal falls apart — but we’re told that deal is done.
Reps for Lopez and Tyler have not commented as of yet but Fox is expected to announce the makeup of the new “Idol” judges’ panel on Monday at the Television Critics Association event. Not quite sure the J-Lo and Steven Tyler addition is going to work. I’m still crossing my fingers for Jessica Simpson and Bret Michaels!
