Want to make an easy $25 million? Just do what Katy Perry is doing and sign up to be a judge for 'American Idol' in its revival on ABC. According to TMZ, the "Teenage Dream" singer is reportedly set to earn $25 million as executives at ABC wanted to land a big-name judge. "Katy had all the leverage. If ABC ended up announcing the show without a judge, they'd be screwed," The deal is $10 million more than Jennifer Lopez made when she was a judge for the show's original run on Fox. I am honored and thrilled to be the first judge bringing back the American Idol tradition of making dreams come true for incredible talents with authentic personalities and real stories,"
