Jennifer Lopez Leaving American Idol?

This season might be Jennifer’s last on American Idol, sources say. Jennifer Lopez hasn’t officially made her decision, but several sources are claiming that she is gone. Why would she pass up all that money and publicity? Well, sources say it’s because she is just too busy. The 42-year-old star is going on tour with Enrique Iglesias this summer, with plans to go worldwide in the fall.

That means she would be overseas around the same time the next round of Idol auditions would kick off,

“It is just like any working mom’s dilemma. It’s tough. You have to put them first and then you have all these other things that you have to do, and you have to make sure that they’re OK. It’s a balancing act.” Lopez told E! News this week.

But don’t expect FOX to let her go so easily. Sources say that really want to keep her on the show. They are not afraid of throwing more cash her way.
