The rumors of a new “American Idol” judges panel are proving to be true! Now, Mariah Carey’s team has confirmed that the singer will not return to the FOX TV show next year.
“W/ global success of “#Beautiful” (#1 in 30+ countries so far) @MariahCarey confirms world tour & says goodbye 2 Idol,” her PR firm said via Twitter.
Carey, 43, has already begun to perform again, kicking off the GMA concert series with Miguel last week.
Last week, Randy Jackson, who announced that he would also be leaving the singing competition, told ABC News that after 12 years, “I just think I’ve been through a lot of iterations of the show.” There have also been reports that Nicki Minaj is not planning to return next season, though that has yet to be officially confirmed.
However, Keith Urban recently said that he would like to do another season on the program, possibly making him the only returning judge.
“I literally enjoy coming to work every day,” he said of his time on “American Idol.” “That’s a rarity.”
