As you read earlier this week, ABC is bringing American Idol back. You also may have heard season one winner and superstar Kelly Clarkson would be joining the judging panel. Well Idol fans, it's not to be.

Clarkson will instead join season 14 of The Voice on NBC. Another former Idol star, Jennifer Hudson, will join next season's panel. Alicia Keys stepped down after season 12. Miley Cyrus, Adam Levine, Blake Shelton, and Hudson will be next season's coaches. There's still no word on who will be judging or hosting the new American Idol. Whew!
