Did he really do it? Only Keith Urban knows for sure but The Country Vibe says they have confirmation the Aussie-hottie has accepted a $3million contract to judge American Idol along-side Mariah Carey and whoever will round out the judging panel of 4 next season.
Carey is the only, officially, confirmed AI judge so far for next season [[unless the Country Vibe "sources" are to be trusted implicitly which would add Keith to that list.) The Hollywood Reporter claims Nicki Minaj is close to signing for a significantly higher number than Keith's alleged contract at close to $8.5 million but that's still a drop in the bucket compared to Mariah Carey's reported $18 million.
Enrique Iglesias is also reportedly negotiating to take a seat on the new 4-person AI judging panel which will see Randy Jackson move into a mentoring role next season.
Epic Country Bromances
Producers were said to have been set on pulling in a judge from the country music community and it had come down to Keith and Brad Paisley. Hope this won't cause any ripples in the Urban/Paisley bromance!
