American Idol fans were already aware of Katy Perry's departure from the show after season 22, but now there are rumors of an even bigger shakeup on the judges' panel. In a recent interview with Billboard, Luke Bryan shares that discussions have been ongoing about potential replacements for Perry, but he and Lionel Richie may also be on their way out. While Disney has remained tight-lipped about the upcoming season's lineup, Bryan hints at possible A-list replacements including Pink, Miley Cyrus, and Meghan Trainor. Trainor, who expressed her desire to become an Idol judge, believes it would be her "ultimate bucket list dream come true." As the search for Perry's replacement continues, Bryan emphasizes the need for someone who can fill her shoes and bring a fearless and authentic perspective to the judging panel. Perry herself hopes for a successor who, like her, is unapologetically outspoken and polarizing. With potential new judges in the mix, the upcoming season of American Idol promises to bring fresh energy and talent to the iconic show.
