It's official, the ink has dried, and MC-BKA Mariah Carey WILL be a judge on the upcoming season of American Idol alongside her good friend and producer, Randy Jackson. And for her time, MC will be taking home a cool 18 Mil for one season--3 milli more than Britney nabbed for X-Factor. MC will be smiling all the way to the bank and ratings are sure to increase at the advent of such starpower. And if that wasn't enough, Mariah is looking EXTRA GOOD, with her new svelte figure. Check out the 1st look at Mariah's 'AI' promo pics.  CHECK IT OUT HERE!
