It's been a week of ups and downs for the American Idol judges. But are there more changes still in the works?
With Ellen DeGeneres leaving the show, Kara DioGuardi reportedly out, and Jennifer Lopez and Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler reportedly joining the judges' table, all eyes are on the show's lone original judge, Randy Jackson.
The question is: Will the "dawg" be back for season 10?
"He is still under contract," a source close to Jackson tells PEOPLE. "He's a little fed up and torn with everything going on, but Randy is the kind of person who goes with the flow. He loves the show."
So despite the shake-ups, Jackson is still on board – at least for now. "He wouldn't stay somewhere he wasn't happy," the source adds.
The Grammy winning producer would love to continue his run on the show, says the source, but "he has a million other projects going on. Idol is a notch on his very accomplished belt."
Meanwhile, FOX has kept mum about next season. On Monday, at the network's presentation for the Television Critics Association's summer press tour, FOX entertainment chairman Peter Rice said cryptically, "No one has signed a deal yet on either side of the camera who wasn't on the show last year. There are no specific deals with anybody."
Jackson's rep could not be reached for comment.
Tell us: Should Randy Jackson stay on American Idol?
