London, July 26 : Pop star Jennifer Lopez has demanded 21 million dollars to continue as a judge on the ‘American Idol’.
The 42-year-old singer, who recently broke up with her husband Marc Anthony, gave the show’s bosses a tough time last week after it was learnt that she would not make a comeback to the hit ITV2 series.
However, the executives claimed that the star has returned to the negotiating table - and admitted they were confident she would return.
“We’re in good shape. No worries. No dark clouds on the horizon,” the Sun quoted show boss Cecile Frot-Coutaz as saying.
However, the negotiation will cost the bosses a big sum as sources now have suggested that Lopez has claimed an equal amount to what Simon Cowell had been earning when he was a judge on the Fox TV show – 21 million dollars.
Lopez received 8 million dollars, nearly three times less than Cowell, last time.
