Luke Bryan revealed pop stars who are on the short list to replace Katy Perry and join him and Lionel Richie as judges on 'American Idol.'
A chair is opening behind the 'American Idol' desk — and judge Luke Bryan has a few ideas about who might fill it next. “I’ve said several names. I think Pink has been in the talks, Miley Cyrus has been in the talks, Meghan Trainor has been in the talks,” he told Billboard on Monday. But that's not a promise. Bryan described Disney as 'really tight-lipped' about the casting, including whether he and Lionel Richie would be invited back.
'Katy was really perfect for that job,' Bryan said, 'and I think they’re just working real hard to find somebody that can really come in and do the job that Katy did.' 'I love ‘Idol’ so much,” Perry told Jimmy Kimmel in February. “It’s connected me with the heart of America, but I need to go out and feel that pulse of my own beat.” For Perry, that pulse includes releasing her sixth studio album and newest single, 'Woman's World,' which drops July 11.
