Jennifer Lopez unsure about "Idol" return

     BEIJING, June 16 (Xinhuanet) – Jennifer Lopez said that she’s uncertain whether she will return to the “American Idol¹” judging panel² next season, media reported Thursday.

    Lopez signed a one-year deal with the show and is happy that there is no rush for her decision.

    "This is the question of the hour. I don't know. I don't know, I haven't been forced to make a decision, and I'm glad about that because honestly, I'm very kind of on the fence about it," Lopez said while appearing on a BBC Radio program in the U.K.

    “I had an amazing time doing it and I loved it but I have a lot of other things happening. It's going to come down to making a choice of what I want to do for the next year.
