In June, 2010, it was reported that J.Lo will join the judging panel for the tenth season of American Idol. There was a major problem at first for Jenny and her then husband Marc Anthony were asked to judge or have a role in 'The X-Factor' for their International and Latin markets and for J.Lo's reported outrageous demands.
