American Idol’s Randy Jackson Is On His Way Out As Judge

American Idol decided to give Randy Jackson the axe as a judge. He will not return in 2013 as a panelist, instead he will stay on as a mentor, and still earn his retirement check. American Idol has cleaned house…… Tyler, Jennifer, and now Randy is out.
Mariah Carey is in, safe and secure with 18 mill, and according to TMZ Nicki Minaj deal is 99% done. Nicki’s deal is ruffling a few feathers, Mariah Carey’s to be more specific. Rumor mill has it M.C. isn’t too fond of Nicki. Hell, nobody likes to be outshined it’s a female thing instead of embracing the next chick they join the secret society of hate on you.
Diddy and Kanye West are out, their greedy asses wanted more than MC. Last I checked A.I. didn’t have a rap category, and this ain’t talent search seek, find, and rip off, no offense Diddy.
Who would you like to see on AI’s judging table for 2013? Props to MJJ.
