American Idol Producer Takes Off
American Idol executive producer Nigel Lythgoe is off the show. The man who’s produced the show for seven seasons has reportedly taken himself off the program and will not return. No replacement has been named yet. It’s being said that Lythgoe felt that it was time for someone else to take charge. Sources say though that he’s said privately that he’s just not passionate about it anymore. However, that’s not stopping him from working on some kind of joint venture with the creator of American Idol Simon Fuller. Lythgoe apparently also wants to spend his time on ‘So You Think You Can Dance’.
