Jennifer Lopez held out for more than a week before finally announcing that she is also returning to American Idol next season. Her fellow judges, Steven Tyler and Randy Jackson, made their return known at the end of June, but Jennifer wouldn't commit.

Lopez has told everyone that asks that she hadn't decided whether she wanted to return to the popular singing show. According to the Hollywood Reporter, she also expressed hesitancy to BBC's Scott Mills this. "I don't know. I haven't been forced to make a decision and I'm glad about that because honestly I'm very on the fence about it." She went on to talk about how much she loved working on American Idol and with the show's contestants, but added ". . .it's going to come down to me making a choice of what I want to do for the next year. . . ."

Taking time to make the right decision makes sense given how busy the Jennifer Lopez is these days. She is the mother of two young children, a wife, a cosmetic company spokesperson, a singer; the list goes on and on. It's difficult to commit such a big block of time to anything, no matter how much one might love doing it.

Jennifer Lopez will make the formal announcement sometime in the near future. In the mean time her fans and next year's potential Idol candidates can all breathe easier.
