The last remaining judge from the original AmericanIdol lineup, Randy Jackson, announced in May that he was leaving the show. It was just one of the many moves that Idol executives wanted to make to shake the show up and generate some buzz after Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj both announced their exit.
Last night, 23 year-old Chris Brown, who is back in Los Angeles from her one week vacation in Hawaii with girlfriend Rihanna, attended the 21st Annual Elton John Aids Foundation Academy Awards Viewing Party held at the Pacific Design Center in West Hollywood, California.
Randy Jackson officially returns to the judging table on American Idol after he recently called it quits.
Randy who is the last remaining original IDOL judge, will return for the show's 12th season according to many insiders that confirmed it on Monday. More details below.....
Executive Producer Nigel Lythgoe told Ryan Seacrest on Wednesday "that all three judges, along with the brilliant host of American Idol, [are] back for next season."
The announcement, which came on Seacrest's KIIS-FM radio show in Los Angeles, ends months of speculation, as Jennifer Lopez had been hemming and hawing over whether she'd return for a second season alongside Randy Jackson and Steven Tyler.
