Mariah Carey, who’s manager just happens to be Randy Jackson, is officially signed on to be an American Idol judge.  Homegirl is expected to bring in anywhere from $12 million to $17 million…again, just to be a JUDGE!!!

This fall marks the 12th season of Idol & the search is STILL on for someone to fill Steven Tyler’s seat!  Hmmmmm…who will it be?
