OK! NEWS: JENNIFER LOPEZ IS REPORTEDLY LEAVING AMERICAN IDOL
Jennifer Lopez is enjoying teasing American Idol fans by saying she's on the fence about signing on for a third season.
She told Ellen DeGeneres that while she "enjoys" judging the show she isn't so sure she has it in her to go for a third round. She misses doing other projects, she said, and hates being "locked down" especially considering her kids are getting older and will enter school soon.
Meanwhile, E! News reported that J.Lo is "too busy" to judge the show with her upcoming Enrique Iglesias summer tour that's sure to bleed over into the fall months when American Idol auditions begin. Of course, the source also reported that FOX "really loves" J.Lo and wants to keep her, which is easy to believe considering the astounding $20 million paycheck she's earning for this season.
