Earlier this month, Fox chairman Peter Rice confirmed that 'American Idol' would replace longtime judge Paula Abdul, who recently left the show over a contract dispute.
It turns out he wasn't lying.
So far, the show has already brought in a whopping seven guest judges for its season 9 audition rounds. The guests represent a wide spectrum of talent and professions -- from country superstars (Shania Twain) to Tony-winning Broadway veterans (Kristin Chenoweth).
Below, check out the confirmed and rumored lists of guest judges.

Only a few days after her departure, Fox is already planning an 'American Idol' without
Paula Abdul.
According to
USA Today, 'Idol' is expected to keep four judges on the panel. This means Paula is likely to be replaced, said Fox chairman Peter Rice.
In the meantime, Rice said the seven-week audition round will feature a number of guest female judges, including singers Katy Perry and Victoria Beckham.

Paula Abdul has threatened to leave 'American Idol' before, and this time it appears to be for real.
But given her history of highly publicized bluffs, is there a chance this is all just a big game of chicken?
According to sources from
TMZ, Paula announced her departure on Twitter before she actually told 'Idol' producers. This came after a series of failed contract negotiations, which included two separate offers for Paula to return. Was she seriously that upset by their offers (or lack thereof)? Or was this just another one of her bluffs?
