Because if we do want these big stars, and we do, you cannot take them away from what they do. That’s depriving the public of a star for a start, but also earning a lot of money.”

Hmmmm. Big stars? Beginning to be a bit less optimistic about this.

This is not news but I managed to miss it, so maybe there are others who did as well. I'm obsessed with the way he looks/ sounds/ speaks in this interview. *replayreplayreplay...* The link was kindly provided by Cassie. Thank you! His SIGH/SMILE at around 1:27 KILLS ME EVERY TIME!!!

JustJared com @justjared Nick Cannon Says 'American Idol' Can't Afford Mariah Carey: - Nick Cannon says American Idol… goo.gl/fb/3XeRTNick Cannon says American Idol would have to pay wife Mariah Carey double the amount that Jennifer Lopez made- TMZ ************** www.tmz.com/2012/07/16/mariah-carey-american-idol-nick-cannon/Cannon told our photog yesterday that it's going to take a HUGE payday to get Mimi to fill Lopez's vacant seat. He told us, "I don't know if they can afford Mariah Carey. That's a lot of money. If they gave JLo $20 million, they might have to double that!"

I fail to see how Aretha thinks she can be a judge especially during the audition phase. Is she even aware of the travel involved? And how fast can a luxury motor home even get from Pittsburg to Dallas?

Hmmmm. Big stars? Beginning to be a bit less optimistic about this.I think this is the problem, not the solution - I have not watched Idol since season 8, although I tried a couple of times. I don't watch for the judges, I don't care who they are, unless they can JUDGE the contestants (as in assess and contribute something worthwhile to the conversation). J Lo and Steven Tyler were useless IMHO. :
