As RadarOnline.com reported, Idol executives were already trying to figure out how to make sure Perry was going to be worth their massive investment.

ABC wants “a more modulated and thoughtful Katy,” a source had said of the 32-year-old singer.

“It’s not like they’re asking her to change her hairstyle or revise her style team, but they are asking her not to upstage the contestants the way some past judges, especially Mariah Carey, had the tendency to do.”
