Tweet peek: Nigel Lythgoe tweeted a picture earlier today of new American Idol judges Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler with Randy Jackson and Ryan Seacrest


Excitement is mounting ahead of the start of season ten of American Idol, which starts in the U.S. July 12 on Fox.

To add to the anticipation, Executive Producer Nigel Lythgoe tweeted a picture earlier today of the new additions to the show hard at work.

Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez were pictured sitting at the famed American Idol judging table with existing judge Randy Jackson and show host Ryan Seacrest.

Both Seacrest and Jackson have been with the show since it's first episode broadcast in June 2002 and are the only remaining original cast members.

After months of speculation American Idol finally announced last week that Lopez and Tyler would be joining the show, replacing last season's judges, Simon Cowell, Ellen DeGeneres and Kara DioGuardi.

With the departure of the show's star, acid-tongued Simon Cowell, producers are looking to up the ante in order to maintain their previously record breaking viewer figures.

In addition to the introduction of the two new A-list judges Idol are promising a slew of changes to the show's format in a way to rejuvenate and freshen up the format.


Changes: After months of speculation Idol finally announced last week that Lopez and Tyler will be joining the show as the new judges


Ratings gamble: Idol producers are banking on Tyler and Lopez to bring in the viewers following the departure of their star judge, Simon Cowell


They have reduced the minimum age requirement for contestants by a year, from sixteen to fifteen and for the first time they are allowing contestants to apply online by submitting their audition tapes via the internet.

Idol hopefuls can submit a 40 second audition tape via Myspace between September 15 - October 6 2010.

Cecile Frot-Coutaz, executive producer of American Idol explained their decision to lower the minimum age: 'A lot of young, talented people are now seeking careers and representation before they turn 16,' she said. 'Lowering the age limit allows us to tap into this talent pool.'

In addition, the show's producers announced that they are scrapping the celebrity guest mentors that have advised contestants in past years in favour of an in-house mentor, Jimmy Iovine, Chairman of the Interscope Geffen A & M records group.


Make me a star: Idol wanabees are still flocking in their legions to audition for season ten of the hit show


Despite the changes contestants are as eager as ever to vie for a chance to compete on the show.

Wannabe singers have been turning out in droves for the opportunity to perform in front of the judges, with auditions already completed in Nashville, New Orleans, Austin and San Francisco.

American Idol has come under criticism in the past, with claims that contestants are forced to sign contracts that are heavily weighted against their favour.

It's claimed that the contracts give excessive control of contestant's careers to 19 Entertainment, the record company that was founded by Simon Fuller, creator of the worldwide Idol franchise.



Out with the old: Ellen DeGeneres, Simon Cowell and Kara DioGuardi have all left the show, leaving just Randy Jackson and Ryan Seacrest to carry on the mantle


But there's no doubting that appearing on the show can give unknowns previously unheard levels of exposure, making or breaking careers and launching certain contestants to mega stardom.

And it's not just the show's winners that go on to find fame and fortune.
One of the biggest success stories of the show's history is Jennifer Hudson, who finished a meagre seventh place in season three, but went on to garner an Oscar for her performance in the 2008 smash hit, Dreamgirls.

Season one and season four winners, Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood have both gone on to become mega successful recording and performing stars, along with Chris Daughtry, who finished fourth in season five.

Out in public: Joe Jonas and Ashley Greene went public with their romance as they strolled around Beverly Hills arm in arm yesterday


Joe Jonas and Ashley Greene are finally going public with their love.

The couple, who have been quietly dating for several months have always maintained that they are 'just friends'.

But yesterday they were spotted out and about in Beverly Hills walking with their arms wrapped around each other, and later holding hands.

And it seems that Joe knows exactly how to treat a girl to a perfect day out.
The two first went for some lunch before hitting the shops for a few hours of retail therapy.

Ever the gentleman, the 21-year-old singer was later seen carrying their many purchases to his waiting Porsche.

The couple then headed off to celebrate Joe's little brother Frankie's 10th birthday.
Rumours started about the couple dating after they were spotted together enjoying a romantic dinner at The Ivy in London back in July.


Give us a smile! Despite the perfect daytime combination of lunch and then shopping Greene looked decidedly glum


Ashley, 23, was in town to attend the premiere of Twilight, in which she starred as Alice Cullen, and Joe was there to support his brother Nick in his stage debut, appearing in Les Miserables.

Jonas had been dating teen sensation Demi Lovato whom he split from in May.
Hopefully they split on good terms though, as Lovato is currently touring with the Jonas Brothers.

Meanwhile, it seems things are starting to get serious between the Ashley and Joe.
E! News reports that Greene recently took Jonas home to meet her parents in Jacksonville, Florida.


Shop till you drop: The couple certainly know how to give their plastic a good workout as they were laden down with bags


And then there's the matter of the purity ring that Joe and his two brothers, Nick and Kevin vowed to wear as a symbol of chastity until they married.

U.S. magazine Life & Style reports that Joe has ditched his ring since hooking up with Greene.

They go on to quote a friend of the couple, who claims: 'When they're not travelling they are basically living together.'

American WAGs: The wives and partners of the United States Ryder Cup team, including Corey Pavin's wife Lisa (fourth from left) and Hunter Mahan's fiancee Kandi (sixth from left), pose at the 2010 Ryder Cup Dinner at Cardiff Castle


It was their first chance to put on a show in Cardiff and, boy, did America's golf birdies come out swinging.

The wives and girlfriends of the USA's Ryder Cup team were certainly dressed to the nines for the opening official function, a dinner at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium.

They joined guest of honour Prince Charles at the event as well as Tiger Woods, who braved the event despite being one of the few bachelors on the golfing set.
But the European WAGs had no intention of being outdone.


Rival birdies: The European WAGs, including Colin Montgomerie's wife Gaynor (fourth from left) also put on a stylish show


Say cheese! The European and United States Ryder Cup teams and WAGs also posed for an official photograph with Prince Charles


Gaynor Montgomerie, who is the wife of Europe's team captain Colin, led the local contingent in a daring plunge-neck pink satin dress.

The stylish Scot hosted the event as part of her role as 'Lady Captain', and has already been praised for being both gracious and welcoming towards the rivals.

Her dedication to her duty on the tour is all the more impressive given the fact her husband's behaviour hasn't always been up to par.

In fact, Colin confessed to an affair with an old flame not long after they married in 2008.



Glam squad: The American WAGs were led by Lisa Pavin, who is the wife of the team's captain Corey, and Hunter Mahan's fiancee, Kandi Harris, who used to be a cheerleader


All American girls: Lisa recently posed for the cover of Avid Golfer, while Kandi used to perform for the Dallas Cowboys


While he admitted it up the relationship under 'considerable strain', she has shown dignified support and happily posed with him for a couple's portrait during the dinner.

The American WAGs were led by Lisa Pavin, who is the wife of the team's captain Corey.

Known as 'The Captainess', the 36-year-old made sure she stood out from the crowd in a bold red dress.

Hunter Mahan's fiancee, Kandi Harris, turns a few heads, too. She's a former cheerleader, who tonight swapped pom poms for an electric blue ball gown.


Stand by your man: Team Europe's Colin Montgomerie with wife Gaynor, Lee Westwood with wife Laurae and Martin Kaymer with partner Allison Michelett


When in doubt, wear black: Europe's Rory McIlroy with his partner Holly Sweeney, Thomas Bjorn with his wife Pernilla and Peter Hanson with his wife Sanna


Harris is a 24-year-old blonde used to perform for American Football giants the Dallas Cowboys.

Hunter and Kandi met in December through a mutual friend and quickly became engaged. The are set to wed in January.

When asked about their whirlwind romance, Hunter has said: 'People say when you know, you know. I'm always like, that's crazy talk.

'But we had a great connection. She's just the best. I mean, she just brings out the best in me, so that's all I can ask for.'

Lisa Pavin is very comfortable taking centre stage too and recently raised a few eyebrows in the conservative golf world with a very racy appearance on the cover of Avid Golfer magazine.


One for the family album! Eurpoe's Luke Donald and wife Diane even took along their daughter Elle


Time to bring out the props! Europe's Miguel Angel Jimenez and partner Marian Jimenez posed on a plush chair, as did Martin Kaymer and partner Allison Micheletti


Time to shine: Europe's Edoardo Molinari with his partner Anna Roscio, Ross Fisher with his wife Jo and bachelors Rory McIlroy and Graeme McDowell teamed up for a laugh


With just a red, white and blue flag to save her modesty, she is seen striking a seductive pose for the shoot.

The couple shrugged off critics, with Corey saying: 'A lot has been said about that photograph, but I thought it was done in great taste.

'I thought it was a beautiful picture. She's a beautiful woman and I'm lucky to have her.'

Lisa, who is 50-year-old Corey's second wife, has proved herself to be equally supportive - and protective - of her husband too.

In fact, the outspoken WAG, who moved to the US from Vietnam as a young child, has ruffled a few feathers with her fiery approach.


Flying solo: Tiger Woods attended the event without a female companion


It's Mrs America! The group made a grand entrance down a staircase


Now it's out turn! The Europeans took time to soak up their moment in the spotlight


She had a Twitter battle with the Sports Illustrated writer Alan Shipnuck, who was once critical of Corey in the Nineties, tweeting: 'No wonder the Tour calls him Shipwreck.'

She also spoke out during a public row between her husband and Golf Channel reporter Jim Gray over a comment made about Tiger Woods.
Her involvement in her husband's career has been described in one press profile as 'unhinged' after she said this year: 'I want to win the Cup more than anything.'

On another occasion, she said: 'When the Ryder Cup is over, I want the PGA of America to remember the positive ideas and inputs and, hopefully, they have something to remember me by.'



Meet and greet: Earlier in the evening, Prince Charles shook hands with Tom Lehman as Tiger Woods watched on

Temptress: Glee's Lea Michele leaves little to the imagination as she pouts sexily at the camera in pants, boots and a tutu to preserve her modesty


It's enough to make her alter ego run prudishly screaming back to the rehearsal room.
In what is probably her sexiest photo shoot to date, actress Lea Michele gazes seductively at the camera as she poses in nothing more than black pants and calf-high lace-up boots.

It's certainly a far cry from the knee-high socks, knitted motif jumpers and sensible shoes that have made her Glee character Rachel Berry a household name all over the world.

And as ironies go, Lea, 24, said life has imitated art for her by landing the role and she is actually a lot more like her character than some people would think.
The Broadway star stripped off down to her pants, hiding her modesty behind a black tutu as she teetered on lace-up high heeled boots for the sexy photo shoot for Marie Claire.

In another shot, she stands on a wooden block in a leotard and Charlotte Olympia platform heels as she oozes with attitude and sex appeal.

Lea has become a household name over the past 12 months, thanks to the international success of the all-singing, all-dancing Glee, in which she plays the annoying but super-talented Rachel, the female star of the William McKinley High show choir.

And she revealed, in her interview with Marie Claire, that her school life was not so far removed from that of her characters.

At eight years old, she got her first role on Broadway in the original New York production of Les Misérables after accompanying her friend to an open-call audition.
For the next six years she juggled stage and schooling, winning plaudits along the way until, at 14, she quit the theatre life after deciding she wanted to be ‘a normal student’.

But she said she - just like Rachel - didn't quite fit in, explaining: ‘My school was bit like Gossip Girl in that there was a lot of money and we didn’t have as much.
'It was very clear towards the end of school that I was different to those people and I didn’t like the things that they liked. I would go to parties and the best part of going would be the leaving. I would go to a party because I felt that’s what I should be doing. I’m such a loser!’


Hold on tight: Lea hangs from a rope on her platform heels oozing attitude towards the camera


She returned to the stage in 2006 in the award-winning production Spring Awakening, where she met, and became best friends with Glee co-star Jonathan Groff.

Two years ago he audition for the role of Rachel Berry in Glee came up, a part which was made for her and what she said has changed her life.


The November issue of Marie Claire is out now


She said: 'I auditioned once. I read and I sang On my Own and I sang a song from Thoroughly Modern Millie. Then I went straight in to meet the studio and I got it right away.

'The minute I read it, I wanted to play Rachel because I felt like I understood her and that she was a part of me.'

It's a role that has also won her numerous showbiz accolades, including an Emmy for Best Actress in a Comedy.

But she is quick to point out that even though she receives the most attention, she said: ‘I feel very equal to my cast and I feel like I couldn’t do what I do without them.'

But is she as squeaky-clean as her good-living, early-to-bed early-to-rise character?
She said: 'I can honestly sit down in front of you and say I don’t smoke and I don’t do drugs. I never have and that’s who I am.

'These days I have one glass of wine and I’m completely gone. I’ve never been a “Let’s go out and have a cosmopolitan” kind of girl. I don’t even think I’ve ever tasted a cosmopolitan before. I much prefer a glass of wine and a bath at home at night to relax.’

But she does have one vice - a passion for tattoos, although she played down her nine inkings, which she said are 'so, so little'.

She has nine, each chronicling a significant milestone in her life. The first was a butterfly, on her back, at 16. There’s one for Spring Awakening, another, Imagine, after the John Lennon song, a gold star for Rachel Berry.


Misfits: The cast of Glee - the second series has just started in the US and comes to the UK in January


But she added: ‘I don’t have like a kiss on my butt or anything! They’re all tiny. All so, so, so little.’

Lea is currently starring in the second series of Glee, which started in the US on September 21 and is back on UK screens in January 2011.
