American Idol just got a whole lot cuter.
As the show looks to replace Paula Abdul, there's a good chance it continues to rotate random singers alongside Simon Cowell, Randy Jackson and Kara DioGuardi during various audition episodes.
And those lucky enough to try out in Dallas next week will perform in front of Joe Jonas! The musician will take over for Victoria Beckham and Mary J. Blige, the show's first two guest judges of the new season.
Meanwhile, as first reported by The Los Angeles Times, Kelly Clarkson is nearing a deal to join the judge's table later this summer.
Other judges confirmed for American Idol include Katy Perry and Shania Twain.
What do you think of these guest appearances? Cool idea? Or do you miss Paula?

A Jonas in DC

JO BRO IN DC
Nick Jonas is already quite the humanitarian!
The JoBro will be speaking at a National Press Club luncheon on August 24th in Washington D.C. to speak about his first-hand experience living with juvenile diabetes.
Jonas will also be promoting his new website, Nick's Simple Wins, which is targeted towards kids and teens struggling with juvenile diabetes and to "inspire young people with diabetes to achieve small, everyday victories while managing their disease."
The Jonas Brothers have also founded their own charity, The Jonas Brothers' Change for the Children Foundation, in which they raise money for diabetes programs across the country.
