After all the back and fourth, Jennifer Lopez announced today that she’s officially leaving American Idol. I think she’s smart to leave for the sake of not overstaying her welcome, but now that I think about it, what the hell is she going to do? Does she expect to start starring in movies again? Does she want to keep on touring or revive her craptastic clothing line?? Sounds like Idol is getting a REAL facelift this upcoming season.

Can’t wait to see where J.Lo lands…maybe Hot in Cleveland? That would be more her demo these days. Too soon?

About

Although comedy is her profession, Nadine has accomplished a lot in her young age. She is a national champion black belt, a world-class soccer player, and an avid snowboarder. She started playing soccer at the age of 4, and continued playing through college where she majored in Biology, but quickly realized her destiny was to tell jokes, not to wear a lab coat. So she decided to be funny while finishing her Bachelors Degree in biology and continued on to get her M.B.A. Nadine’s comedy style is much like her athleticism, fearless. She’s made her way up the comedy ladder very quickly, and has become a club favorite at many of the country’s top comedy clubs, including the Improv chain. Performing in the Boston Comedy Festival and being noted as the “one of the youngest and brightest up and comers” and traveling to the Middle East to entertain the troops are just a few of her notable accomplishments. These days Nadine splits time between the stage, a radio studio, her computer blogging, and a television studio. Nadine’s TV, Radio, Writing credits include: national commercials, talking head roles on E! Entertainment, Showtime’s Hot Tamales Live, The Skinny: Fat Free News, The Sunny Side of The Truth: Real World Hollywood, TVgasm, Zazreport, Daddy’s Girls, Jerseylicious, celebrity interviews on Mania TV, a weekly half-hour television show that syndicates to colleges across the country for National Lampoon and a nightly radio show on XM Satellite Radio.

    True. Steven is going back to his band and making music, Randy can always start producing again, but JLo’s talent is… well, the way she looks. AI’s the best thing for her: she only has to memorize a few lines, but she gets to display her face and booty before millions.

    does anyone think that j-lo is upset that tyler stole the ‘leaving idol’ thunder? she’d been hemming and hawwing about it for a couple of weeks, and then tyler drops the bomb (i hadn’t heard any rumors about him). or maybe they agreed together?

    i don’t know why i’m interested, i don’t even watch the show.

    Methinks JLo was looking for more money. She made $12 million a season, which is great, but with all the hoopla of Brittany Spears getting $15 mil for X Factor, JLo didn’t want to be overshadowed by someone who hasn’t worked in years. American Idol only pays that kinda bucks to Seacrest. X Factor is new enough to warrant risk taking, but AI is a little more set in its ways. Pride is a mutha..JLo could never work knowing Brittany is getting more money for the same job. “Do you know who I am?!” Of course they do. That’s why they don’t think you’re worth more money.

    If they put Adam Lambert on as a judge I will take AI off my TV ban list. I haven’t watched since he got screwed out of the win in favor of the cute white boy with the guitar who hasn’t done anything since.

    Well Sarcasty–we know that JLo is a single mom (marriage number what will it be 4??? should be coming down the pike soon) and as such has to work to support those babies. I guess Mark’s “clothing line” isnt flying off the shelves either. What’s a former Fly Girl to do????

    I say Adam Lambert, Debbie Harry or Iggy Pop and………may be Pat Benetar?

    @Sheesh and @hotcawfee Love your lists but would prefer Danny to Richard Elfman. And news reports are confirming that J-Lo wanted 17 million and Fox never replied (said ‘no’).

    Ooh, Pat Benetar. And how about a real, trained musician like Harry Connick, Jr.? He was an awesome mentor a couple years back. :D

    @HotCawfee – If Iggy Pop was on that show, I’d watch it religiously. Hands freakin’ down.
