Jennifer Lopez, Steven Tyler announce exit from American Idol
LOS ANGELES — She just couldn't let Steven Tyler have all the headlines: Jennifer Lopez announced Friday that she, too, won't be returning to "American Idol."
Lopez, appearing on Ryan Seacrest's syndicated morning radio program, said that after two years on Fox's veteran singing competition show, "The time has come."
"I really have been torn," she said.
"When I signed on to 'dal,' I signed on to do one year. I ended up doing two years ... It was just such a lovely surprise in my life to do it."
She continued, "It gets more complicated as the kids get a little bigger. It started feeling like it was a lot. Something had to give ... that's where I am right now."
Which prompted good ol' Seacrest to nudge: "Does that mean we're coworkers or not?"
"I honestly feel like the time has come that I get back to doing the other things that I do," she said. "We had an amazing run."
Not.
The 42-year-old megastar had been dropping more than a few hints about her desire to part ways. She appeared earlier this week on the "Today" show, suggesting she was ready to move on.
Lopez denied her late announcement was part of a negotiations ploy. —Associated Press

French political party suing Madonna
PARIS — France's far-right National Front said Sunday that it plans to sue Madonna after the singer showed a video at a Paris concert that contained an image of the party's leader with a swastika on her forehead.
The video has been shown at other concerts on the singer's tour, and the party has expressed its outrage before, warning that
A PLACE TO COME HOME TO. "PEACEFUL & QUIET LIVING"
it would take action if the video were shown in France. On Saturday night, Madonna played it at the Stade de France.

National Front spokesman Alain Vizier said Sunday that the party would file a complaint in French court next week for "insults."
Party leader Marine Le Pen is briefly pictured in the video during a montage in which famous faces

— or parts of faces — morph one into the next. Soon after Le Pen's face flashes up, Madonna's face follows with Hitler's mustache.
Le Pen has tried to shed the National Front's image as racist and anti-Semitic, especially during her recent failed bid for president. But she has maintained a hard line on immigrants, saying France has too many and criticizing many Muslims. Associated Press
