Rumors have been swirling for weeks as to who will be announced as the celebrity judge(s) for next season’s American Idol. Most insiders feel that Ellen Degeneres is definitely out next season, and now Gossip Cop is reporting that offers have been made to Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler.

Gossip Cop reports:

Ellen DeGeneres is officially out of “American Idol,” because she “hated being critical,” says a source familiar with negotiations.

In fact, Gossip Cop hears she asked to be released from her contract the day last season ended, but was told there was no chance unless they found another panel.

Which brings us to today’s HUGE news.

Gossip Cop hears from a reliable source that offers have been made to Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler.

A lot can happen between tonight and the announcement next week, but as of now we’re told the two have been tapped to be the new “American Idol” judges.

More on this story as it develops.

Dude look like a lady?

Ellen was horrible and they need to get rid of that other chick. Keep Randy and get 3 new ones.

Steven Tyler = TERRIBLE idea, as much as I like older Aerosmith.

J-Lo might be good.

Man, Apostrophe, you sure as hell called that one! That girl IS nasty!
Time for American Idol to say bye-bye

Just a thought:
Does anyone really believe that Steven Tyler and J-lo have the patience or the desire to travel the country and sit through thousands of auditions? I understand why they would like to be on the number 1 TV show, but the preparation leading up to airtime is what I wonder about.

Kara DioGuardi — Out at ‘American Idol’

7/29/2010 11:33 PM PDT by TMZ Staff

Sources connected with the “American Idol” negotiations tell TMZ Kara DioGuardi has judged her last contestant on “American Idol” — because she’s been fired.

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.
