Steven Tyler announced Thursday that he was leaving his seat at the Idol judges table to focus more on making music with his legendary rock band Aerosmith and Jennifer Lopez has been strongly hinting that she may depart the show as well.
The only original judge that is seemingly remaining on the 10-year-old show is Randy Jackson, who has collaborated extensively with Carey throughout her career.
