Former American Idol and current pop star Adam Lambert is reportedly in talks with the show about possibly becoming a judge for the show’s next season. With reports that Steven Tyler, Jennifer Lopez, and even Randy Jackson, possibly not returning to the show, American Idol’s obviously looking to shake things up a bit.

An inside source on the situation stated:

“They have been talking about Adam for over a month,” a source tells E! News. “He personifies the show, and will be a popular choice right from the start. He knows what it’s like to be on the receiving end of the judges’ comments, he has a human touch, and they know they can’t go wrong if they bring him on.”

The unidentified source certainly tells it right; Lambert would absolutely be a popular choice as a replacement and would help boost the show’s ratings. With the possibility of losing all three judges, American Idol will certainly be in a tough spot, and in need of fresh faces. It will be interesting to see how this story unfolds so be sure to keep your eyes out here on UTG for more details as they become available.
