Steven Tyler on American Idol's Offer

Famous vocalist Steven Tyler of Aerosmith made a confirmation that he's been asked about joining the judges' panel on FOX's American Idol next season, with a potential of filling one of the spots vacated by Simon Cowell and Ellen DeGeneres.
"This beautiful girl from FOX came up to me and made an offer," Tyler said yesterday on Kid Kraddick in the Morning, a syndicated radio show (via Billboard). "They mentioned it and I listened, and we're on tour, so I gotta give it some time."
"I would be honest to the ones that think they have it, and I would be truthful in the sense that if, to those that have it, they don't have it yet enough," he continued. "And I would tell them exactly why, as I see it."
Aside from Tyler other stars in Idol's list are Jennifer Lopez, Chris Isaak, and Jessica Simpson.

Ellen DeGeneres, Goodbye American Idol

Reports has it, Ellen DeGeneres will not come back to the judging panel on American Idol for the show's latest season.
DeGeneres released her statement regarding her decision:|
“A couple months ago, I let FOX and the American Idol producers know that this didn’t feel like the right fit for me. I told them I wouldn’t leave them in a bind and that I would hold off on doing anything until they were able to figure out where they wanted to take the panel next. It was a difficult decision to make, but my work schedule became more than I bargained for.”
“I also realized this season that while I love discovering, supporting and nurturing young talent, it was hard for me to judge people and sometimes hurt their feelings. I loved the experience working on Idol and I am very grateful for the year I had, I am a huge fan of the show and will continue to be.”
They say that Idol is said to be shaken following Simon Cowell’s departure. Justin Timberlake, Jessica Simpson and Elton John were rumored to be a part of the show’s tenth season
