Just In! - Dr. Luke Will Not Join American Idol as Third Judge in Season 13



According to UsMagazine Dr Luke will not be joining American Idol as the third judge in season 13.  Apparently there is contracts the 39-year-old music bigwig (real name: Lukasz Gottwald) ran into some trouble with Sony Music, which signed him to a lucrative contract in 2011. (Sony is in direct competition with Universal Music Group, which produces the American Idol records.)
"It was all a go -- [Sony Music CEO] Doug Morris said it could happen, and then Doug came back and said it can't happen," a source tells Us of why the deal fell through. "They had the lawyers with the contractual stuff about the conflict between Universal and Sony."

Blondiepie's blog thought that this was awesome and sad to see this news.  American Idol needs to put the producers in the chair, the ones that knows hit makers when they see them.
