As you've likely heard, the country's favorite singing competition series "American Idol" has finally announced who will take over Simon Cowell and Ellen DeGeneres' vacant judges seats and empty beverage-company-sponsored tumblers (hopefully they'll be washed first!). During a live webcast, Aerosmith singer Steven Tyler and Jennifer "Jenny from the Block" Lopez were named to the judges panel along with incumbent Randy Jackson.
Rumors had been circulating for weeks that Steven and Jennifer would be the chosen ones to trade one-liners with host Ryan Seacrest when the series returns next year for its 10th season. Now that it's official, though, it's time to weigh in with your thoughts.
Both artists have compelling musical chops to support their appointments. Steven has been rocking and rolling for 40 years with his band Aerosmith. He was named one of Rolling Stone's 100 Greatest Singers and is a member of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. And did we mention that epic collab with *NSYNC and Britney Spears at Super Bowl XXXV? That alone...
For her part, Mrs. Marc Anthony has sold more than 55 million records, and I'm sure you'll agree that as both an actress and singer, she knows a thing or two about performing. But those are just our thoughts. Let us know what you think about the new judges after the jump!
