American Idol Judges All Aboard For Next Season



American Idol Judges: Steven Tyler, Jennifer Lopez, and Randy Jackson with Host Ryan Seacrest

Nigel Lythgoe, Executive Producer for “American Idol” visited Ryan Seacrest’s radio show Monday morning to make the announcement that Jennifer Lopez, Steven Tyler, and Randy Jackson have all re-signed for the 11th season.

“I am delighted to say that all three judges, along with the brilliant host of ‘American Idol’ are back for the next season,” Lythgoe told Seacrest.

Not a bad deal for the trio, as it seems that not only did the judges secure a job to ‘hold them over’ till next season, but they might have even gotten a ‘little’ pay raise. 

Yeah little.

TMZ reports that J.Lo’s check went from $12 million last season to a whopping $20 million for the upcoming season.  No word yet on how much Randy or Steven’s paychecks have increased, but something tells me that however much they receive will be plenty. 

No pity party here for this bunch!
