Jennifer Lopez and the Aerosmith front man Steven Tyler will be joining original judge Randy Jackson on the judging panel for the 10th season of American Idol, which will air early next year.
Auditions will be held in Los Angeles later today before heading to New Jersey next week.
Jennifer and Steven join the panel following the departures of Simon Cowell, Ellen DeGeneres and Kara DioGuardi.
It had been reported Jennifer had agreed a $12 million deal to be a judge on the show, after bosses allegedly turned down her demands for a $15 million deal. A source revealed: "I think it was just positioning. In the end, she didn’t turn up her nose up at $12 million."
