After much speculation and negotiating, Jennifer Lopez is officially returning to American Idol. The announcement was made by Executive Producer Nigel Lythgoe.

“I am delighted to say that all three judges, along with the brilliant host of ‘American Idol’ [Ryan Seacrest], is back for the next season,” Lythgoe said Wednesday morning on Seacrest’s radio show, “On Air with Ryan Seacrest.” Lythgoe said all three will be back on the road soon to participate in season 11 auditions.

Lopez has not made a statement as of yet. We are wondering if she was able to get the $20 Million she was asking for.

Bristol Palin and Levi Johnston are certainly milking their 15 minutes for all its worth. PopEater has confirmed Palin has been cast for Season 11 of “Dancing With The Stars.”

A source tells PopEater that Palin is excited to be moving to L.A. with her young son Tripp. “Bristol is excited and scared and hopes she gets Maksim Chmerkovskiy as her partner,” the source says.

According to E! News, David Hasselhoff, Audrina Patridge, The Situation and Brandy have all been cast on the upcoming season, which premieres Sept. 20.

One good thing about Bristol moving to L.A. is she can be close to her ex-fiancee Levi. Perhaps its not good for her, but at least its good for their son Tripp. Maybe not – Levi is a huge douche.
