American Idol

'American Idol' executives are denying that Nicki Minaj will be fired following her on-camera spat with fellow judge Mariah Carey-- and more details are coming out about the beef between the two divas.

We knew this would be too much diva for one reality competition show panel.

For all its massive success in recent years, AMC is still somewhat in its infancy when it comes to original programming. And for every runaway hit like 'Breaking Bad,' 'Mad Men' and 'The Walking Dead,' there's a few missteps like 'The Killing,' or even recent forays into reality TV with unique efforts like 'Small Town Security.' But if you're going to emulate the major networks, might as well go f

The next season of the waning talent search show ‘American Idol’ began taping on Sunday, and after working their way down a long list of possible judges, the producers ended up with a panel that seems to include one too many divas -- and we can only hope the fireworks make it to air.

If you ask Mariah Carey, two divas can fit on one panel, thank you very much. The multi-octave legend has dismissed rumors of a beef with fellow newly minted 'American Idol' judge Nicki Minaj as nothing more than nonsense.

Now that it has been officially announced that Nicki Minaj will be joining 'American Idol' as its newest judge, we thought talk about the singing reality show would die down a bit. But boy, were we so wrong.

It's cool, dawg. Randy Jackson is back as an 'American Idol' judge!

It seems like everyone who’s anyone in pop and country music is in the running for the vacant judge posts on ‘American Idol.’ Diva Mariah Carey is the only judge firmly in place, as sole OG judge Randy “In It to Win It” Jackson’s future remains up in the air, dawg. It’s ironic, since he’s Mimi’s manager and brought her into the ‘Idol’ fold. With Keith Urban, Nicki Minaj and Katy Perry all rumored

Well, it’s official. Randy Jackson will not be returning as a judge on ‘American Idol,’ but he will remain as a “mentor” for the show.

Well isn’t this just a golden nugget of a celebrity news story? There’s a rumor floating around that Kanye West might be the newest judge on ‘American Idol‘ — and now, he’s gained the support of everybody’s favorite momager Kris Jenner, mom to the Kardashian klan.

The judge rumor mill swirling around 'American Idol' continues to spin out of control. First Nicki Minaj is on board...or is she? Keith Urban will be a judge...or will he? How about Kanye West? Now, it's Katy Perry! According to TMZ, "American Idol" wants Katy Perry to fill one of its vacant judge's seats.

Looks like the rumors of Nicki Minaj joining ‘American Idol‘ may be true. The Hollywood Reporter says that Minaj and country crooner Keith Urban are close to finalizing their contracts for the show!

It was announced  a month ago that Mariah Carey would become a judge on ‘American Idol‘ for its upcoming season, filling one of the seats left vacant by former judges Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez. People may still be recovering from the shock of the announcement, but ‘Idol’ winner Jordin Sparks thinks Carey will be a great fit.

Flamboyant singer Steven Tyler announced his exit from the judging panel of ‘American Idol‘ a few weeks ago, and now the Aerosmith frontman has gone on the record (so to speak) about what working on the show was really like.

Season 12 of ‘American Idol‘ will see some big changes, and we’re not just talking about the addition of super diva Mariah Carey to the judge’s panel. There will be three new ways for hopefuls to audition this season, which kicks off in early 2013.
