According to my sources American Idol’s brutally honest judge Simon Cowell has made recent statements that he might leave the show when his contract ends after season nine.

The British media has reported that he currently is demanding over $100 million per year to stay on longer, which is why there have been reports going around that he could actually be getting paid that much after he works out his new deal with FOX.

Randy Jackson,Paula Abdul,and Kara DioGuardi, the other three judges all have said that they hope to close their deals for season nine pretty soon. Although the “American Idol” ratings have gone down in recent years,it is still the highest rated show on television by a huge margin.
