Will Jennifer Lopez Return To American Idol Next Year?

Before Jennifer Lopez joined American Idol as a judge she was perceived as a stone-cold diva with a humongous butt, but a tiny shrivelled heart. On "Idol" we saw a different side of JLo, she seemed to really care about the young contestants, and she offered them compassionate and intelligent advice.
Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler accomplished the impossible; they made us forget about the departure of Simon Cowell. It would be unfortunate if either one left the successful show.
Jennifer Lopez and American Idol are a match made in heaven. Lopez brought "Idol" good ratings, and serving as a judge on the hit show conferred upon the Latin bombshell the love of the American people.
Lopez claims she's "on the fence" about returning to Idol next season, let's hope it's just a bid to get a pay raise.
