Mariah Carey is the new judge on ‘American Idol’!

After the announcement of Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez’s departure, we are now given an official announcement.

“I’m so excited to be joining ‘Idol.’ I wanted to be there today and I wish I could’ve been there myself to tell you,” Carey told the audience via phone after Reilly called her and put her on speaker. “It happened really quickly. I can’t wait to get started in a couple months. Everybody have a great TCA and I will see you in January.” (source)

We can’t wait to see how this all plays out! After all, Mariah Carey is a musical legend!

Now, it’s down to one last judge. Who is in the running? Read more HERE!
