excerpt:"Ellen DeGeneres' "American Idol" body is barely cold and now word is leaking that Jennifer Lopez may be replacing her at the judges' table.

Both Deadline and Gossip Cop are reporting that Jennifer Lopez has been tapped as the new "Idol" judge. Deadline says Lopez' old manager Benny Medina "orchestrated the meeting with the 'American Idol' producers a month ago, and negotiations have been ongoing ever since."

    I'm sorry, but what are J.Lo's qualifications? That she sings? Badly?

    Please, give me a break. AI is desperate. Definitely time to put the show out to pasture for good.

    Books: personally, I thought it would die a quick death without Simon C... but apparently, Fox just wants to delay the inevitable by making AI's death slow and painful to watch. Thanks, but I'll skip.

    well if by "last" you mean "still on the air" then i think you're wrong

    if you mean "drop in quality fast" then you're right

      Ken Tucker of E. Weekly suggests they just cancel A Idol and I'm inclined to agree
