Katy Perry Is Not Sorry For Her Huge American Idol Judge Payday

Katy Perry defends her reported $25 million ā€œAmerican Idolā€ salary in a radio interview set to air on Wednesday.

Perry singed on last week as the first judge of the ā€œAmerican Idolā€ reboot, which will air on ABC in 2018. 

It was subsequently reported that the pop star would be paid a whopping $25 million for the season, more than what Ryan Seacrest and Jennifer Lopez previously earned. Now in a KTU interview clip released Tuesday, Perry addresses the large sum.

ā€œ...I’m really proud that, as a woman, I got paid,ā€ Perry stated. 

ā€œAnd you know why? I got paid like more than pretty much any guy that’s been on that show. And, by the way, I love men. So I’m a paid woman and I’m ready for a beautiful man.ā€ 

The singer went on to discuss the ā€œconstructive criticismā€ she plans to dish on the reality competition. ā€œI’m polite but firm. I’m super realistic,ā€ Perry said, going on to reveal she was in negotiations to join past seasons of the show but ā€œit’s never been rightā€ until now.
