Katy Perry has reportedly turned down the chance to judge on American Idol -- a gig that would have placed her next to Mariah Carey. Idol pursued Katy for weeks, eager to get her to sign on for one season of the hit reality series. They started the offer at $18 million, but threw even more cash on the table -- $20 million, sources close to the production tell TMZ. Unfortunately, Katy reportedly made it clear that money was not the issue. Not only would her schedule make it impossible, but Katy simply was not interested. What do YOU think, HollywoodLifers? Should Katy be a judge on American Idol?
