Is Jennifer Lopez headed back to 'Idol?'Things may not be so lonely for Keith Urban at the "American Idol" judges table. Since judges Randy Jackson, Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey will not be returning, the only sure face we know that will be back next season is country star Urban who Fox president Kevin Reilly confirmed during the 2013 Summer TCA Press Tour would be returning. But if you believe Jennifer Lopez's boyfriend, Casper Smart, the singer/actress is also headed back. When asked by E! if Lopez was headed to the show, Smart reportedly responded "yes," perhaps believing that a formal announcement had been made. It has not and so far Fox is being mum, other than Reilly having confirmed at the TCA Press tour that discussions were being held with La Lopez. Lopez was a judge during the 2011-2012 season and the buzz continues to mount that an announcement will be made soon. Do you think it's a good idea to have her back or no?

Lopez, who separated from husband Marc Anthony last July, told Lauer that the change in her personal life is "still fresh," adding that she doesn't know if she'll ever marry again. "It's not the time to think about [marriage] yet." What is on her mind is her new show with her estranged spouse, "Q'Viva! The Chosen," which she continued to work on with Anthony following their separation. |
