Jennifer Lopez Is Leaving American Idol

According to new reports, Jennifer Lopez is leaving American Idol

The songstress began her gig on the hit reality TV competition back in 2010, but an insider reveals she’s way too busy these days to continue:

“There is just too much going on for her right now.”

Lopez, who just landed the top spot on Forbes‘ 2012 list of most powerful celebrities, has endorsement deals with L’Oreal and Gillette, a clothing line, and her very own fragrance. She’s also set to go on a 20-city tour of the U.S. and Latin America alongside Enrique Iglesias, and has 4-year-old twins Max and Emme to raise!

The source adds:

“She regrets she can’t stay on the show. It’s been an incredible experience and she is forever grateful that she did it.”

If Jennifer does leave Idol, who do you think should take her spot?

Khloe And Lamar Cancel Spin Off Show

According to sources, Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom have decided to cancel their reality TV show so that Lamar can focus on his NBA career.

Lamar was put on the Dallas Mavericks’ inactive list after a poor performance this season.

In order to help make a comeback, he feels he should only focus on one thing at a time. So, Lamar has decided to live in L.A. and get a trainer to help improve his game.

The couple will still make appearances on Keeping Up with the Kardashians, but that’s about it!

Deena Cortese Shows Off New Look At Spring Break

Has the pressure of fame gotten to Jersey Shore’s Nicole Cortese?

The reality TV star posed for pictures at MTV’s Spring Break Las Vegas at the Palms Casino Resort earlier today, looking considerably different than usual.

Nicole seems much thinner these days, her curly hair now stick straight, and her face is, well…just not how it used to be.

She’s no stranger to plastic surgery, though.

Just last August, Nicole admitted to Page Six:

“I actually had a nose job.”

The self-proclaimed “meatball” is no more!

What do you think of Nicole’s new look?

‘Jersey Shore’ Spinoff: All About The Baby!

Producers on the set of the Jersey Shore spinoff must be freaking out about Snooki’s alleged pregnancy, right?

Well…not so much.

Instead, someone from 495 productions actually contacted a Jersey City baby store called “Bambi Baby” to inquire about shooting on location.

The owner obviously agreed (come on…it’s like free advertising).

So much for boozy nights filled with nightclubs, fighting and drama!

We’re curious to see how Snooki’s partner-in-crime, JWoww, will fit into the show’s new premise.
