With
American
Idol
Season
12
on
BIG
CBS
LOVE
racing
towards
its
grand
finale,
things
seem
to
be
heating
up
not
just
on
stage,
but
behind
the
scenes
as
well.
American
Idol
judge
and
songstress
Mariah
Carey,
who
has
been
in
the
news
for
rumours
claiming
that
she
will
be
replaced
by
former
Idol
judge
Jennifer
Lopez,
is
reacting
to
all
the
negative
speculation
with
much
dignity.
One
of
the
most
qualified
judges
on
the
panel
of
the
popular
singing
reality
show,
Mariah
Carey
has
garnered
a
loyal
following
amongst
fans
for
her
judging
abilities,
in
spite
of
the
numerous
controversies
surrounding
her
stint
on
the
show.
In
light
of
the
reports
doing
the
rounds,
doting
husband
and
America's
Got
Talent
host
Nick
Cannon
has
come
out
defending
his
wife
from
the
unpleasantries.
The
actor
comments,
"Whatever
happens
with
that
show,
I
think
she's
had
a
great
time.
But
she's
a
global
superstar.
I
don't
think
she's
ever
in
need
of
a
job.
She
made
a
decision
to
do
that
show
because
she
really
wanted
to
connect
with
the
contestants.
I
don't
think
she's
thinking
about
the
future
of
it."
On
the
other
hand,
Mariah
continues
to
remain
in
high
spirits
on
the
show,
playing
the
ultimate
professional
and
maintaining
her
usual
decorum.
With
our
top
four
ladies
well
on
their
way
to
making
Idol
history,
American
Idol
is
looking
as
intriguing
as
ever.
However,
the
question
remains
-
Who
will
leave
next,
and
will
it
even
be
a
contestant
or
will
it
be
a
judge?
