And what's the deal with Jennifer Lopez? It was widely reported that J-Lo was locked-in as a judge, but Thursday, People said that FOX had broken off talks with the Love Don't Cost A Thing singer because she was demanding more than $20 million a year for the gig, as well as her own hair, makeup, styling team and "dressing room compound."

In an apparent response to stories of her diva-like requests, Jenny On The Block Tweeted,  'Hmmm... what should I wear today?' and posted a photo of her lavish diamond jewelry, feathered hats and multiple makeup cases.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, another bonafide diva would love the job.

Nick Cannon told the Hollywood Reporter that wife Mariah Carey is interested.

"You know what? She talks about it. She says, 'I would love to do that.' She is one of the greatest singers of our time; she would be great," Cannon said. "I don't know if she has enough time, though, but if they could work with her schedule, I know she would love to do Idol. Let's start the campaign!"
