Luke Bryan Speaks on Whether He and Carrie Underwood Will Return to ‘American Idol'
American Idol will return for its 24th season in 2026, but Luke Bryan isn't sure if he'll be along for the ride. The country music star recently spoke with Taste of Country Nights, where he opened up about the future of Idol and whether he and his fellow judge Carrie Underwood will be back next season. Underwood joined Bryan and Lionel Richie for Season 23, replacing Katy Perry. '[She] really enjoyed it,' Bryan said of Underwood's first season as a judge. 'I know she had a great time in the role.' As for whether that means she will be back for another go-around next year, Bryan shared, 'My prediction would be highly favorable.' However, when it comes to his own future with the show, the 'Buy Dirt' singer was more apprehensive. 'Idol is kind of a year-by-year, 'Do we do it or not?'' he stated. Bryan and Richie joined the ABC singing competition series in 2018 and have completed eight seasons behind the table. They served alongside Perry for Seasons 16 to 22 before Underwood joined the panel earlier this year. Lionel Richie, Carrie Underwood, Luke Bryan; Disney/Eric McCandless Despite his apprehension over returning, Bryan emphasized that he loves the show and had a great time on Season 23. 'Last year was really, really incredible with Carrie and Lionel and Ryan [Seacrest],' he said. 'And the main thing is just, have fun with American Idol and have fun with the kids [contestants].' As for his future, he simply added, 'We'll see what happens.' Bryan has spoken in the past about how he and Richie are on one-year contracts that are re-upped ahead of the new season. He admitted that Disney, ABC's parent company, are often 'tightlipped' about its decisions, so he often doesn't know until late-on whether or not he'll be back. In July 2024, ahead of Season 23, he told Billboard, 'We currently haven't heard what the story is on who's coming back, and if Lionel and I are coming back. I think Disney is just trying to figure out what they want to do and we're just kind of sitting back and waiting until they decide.' Would you like to see Bryan back for another season of Idol? Or should the show change up its judging panel? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below. Solve the daily Crossword

Luke Bryan Hasn't Decided on ‘American Idol' Return, Predicts Carrie Underwood Will be Back
Luke Bryan thinks his fellow judge Carrie Underwood will return to American Idol for season 24, but he can't say the same for himself — yet. In an interview with Taste of Country Nights published on Wednesday, July 30, the country artist, 49, chatted about the future of the judging panel — which most recently included him, Underwood, and Lionel Richie — on the long-running singing competition series. The 'Play It Again' singer said Underwood, 42, 'really enjoyed' her first season as a judge. 'I know she had a great time in the role,' he told the outlet. Underwood was, of course, a contestant on season 4 of the hit show in 2005, taking home the trophy. When asked if he thinks the 'Before He Cheats' hitmaker will be back in the future, Bryan answered, 'My prediction would be highly favorable.' As for himself, the 'Country Girl' singer — who has been a judge on the show since season 16 in 2018 — gave a cryptic answer when asked about his return, telling the outlet, 'We'll see what happens.' 'Idol is kind of a year-by-year, 'Do we do it or not?'' he explained. 'Last year was really, really incredible with Carrie and Lionel and Ryan,' Bryan reflected, 'and the main thing is just, have fun with American Idol and have fun with the kids [contestants].' Underwood spoke to E! at the season 23 finale of Idol and gushed over her experience. 'I had a lot of fun, for sure,' she admitted. 'I didn't know how I'd feel about it, [but] Luke and Lionel, and the crew … the people that work on the show are just so easy to be around.' When asked if she would return as part of the judging trio, she responded, 'That would be cool, I think.' As Star previously reported, Underwood has been considering venturing into acting as well. 'Carrie did one cameo a few years back and she thoroughly enjoyed it,' a source told Star earlier this month, referring to her role in Cobra Kai season 4. 'It would give her a lot of satisfaction to get back on a set and tackle a real role this time.' 'She's spent time in L.A. doing American Idol and feels she's got a better grip on the Hollywood acting scene now,' the source explained. 'It would be a great springboard whether she chooses to do another season of Idol or not, that's still up in the air.' 'One thing's for sure, she plans on furthering her acting ambitions,' the source added. Solve the daily Crossword
