J.Lo Hinted She Would Take 'Idol' Job If Offered

July 30, 2010 American Idol

What a day for "American Idol" news! Ellen DeGeneres is leaving, Kara DioGuardi has reportedly been axed, and now Jennifer Lopez's deal as an "American Idol" judge replacement is reportedly imminent.

"Extra" got a clue that Lopez was interested when Reporter AJ Calloway hypothesized to Lopez, "What if 'Idol' offered you $45 million to come onboard as a judge, what would you do?" To which the superstar replied, "Well, that's hard to say no to," she laughed, adding, "I'm not greedy, I'm not greedy, I'm not greedy!"

But wait! Former "Idol"er Simon Cowell may also be angling for her to join him on "The X Factor"! He certainly loved having her as a mentor on "American Idol" back in 2007. "As soon as you hear Jennifer Lopez's name attached to the show, you think it's incredible," Cowell told "Extra" then.

Decisions, decisions! Jenny might want to take a walk around the block.
