Yo, dawg! After 12 years of judging American Idol, Randy Jackson is leaving the show. He released a statement in the most Randy Jackson way possible.
“Yo! Yo! Yo! To put all of the speculation to the rest, after 12 years of judging on ‘American Idol’ I have decided it is time to leave after this season.”
“I am very proud of how we forever changed television and the music industry. It’s been a life changing opportunity but I am looking forward to focusing on my company Dream Merchant 21 and other business ventures.”
You know, that statement was a liiiitle pitchy, but it’s for the best. There’s only so many stunt judges you can sit through before you end up strangling one of them.
