American Idol New Judges? ...

Hmm, Dear Randy Jackson...PLEASE STAY!!!

Now that the 12th season of American Idol is over the question lies who will be the returning judges for its 13th season. We already know American Idol veteran since season 1 Randy Jackson has resigned from the show after he made his decision to step down as a judge just last month. There have been rumors hitting the net that Nicki Minaj has decided to step down from the judges panel which leaves newbies Keith Urban and Mariah Carey. 

This season by far had the most diverse panel of judges, I've ever witnessed on a season of American Idol. Though in the beginning there was heavy tension between divas Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey, the two of them are what brought the high ratings during the audition rounds. The bicker and feud just wasn't enough to keep viewers interested as the ratings dropped drastically, deeming the total as the lowest rating in American Idol history!

Could it have been because of the judges? Could it have been because of the competition? or Are people finally over and done with American Idol? Whatever the case, I know Randy Jackson needs to stay with American Idol and bring back Simon and Paula. I really can't see any other judges replacing the three original judges (see image above). I'd become less interested in the show as the judges slowly departed their ways with American Idol.
