Kelly Clarkson To Show “Idol” Hopefuls How It’s Done

kcThe original American Idol is the latest person scheduled to fill in for departed fourth judge Paula Abdul at the second round of auditions for the show—and in a twist, she’ll reportedly be joined by Disney-bred heartthrob Joe Jonas on the panel. The two of them will follow in the footsteps of Victoria “Posh Spice” Beckham, Mary J. Blige, and Shania Twain; there are also rumors that Katy Perry and Jennifer Lopez will pass judgment on the hopefuls at future second-round dates. (Yes, that Jennifer Lopez. Yes, she is apparently judging the singing portion of the competition, and not the “potential for brand diversification” segment. No, I don’t know why either.) [LAT]

    I’m looking forward to seeing her on it, though I’d rather see here on the panel after they’re in Hollywood where she can offer real constructive criticism.
