Charlie Sheen Is “Genuinely Interested” in American Idol Judging Spot

When Nigel Lythgoe said he was interested in troubled actor Charlie Sheen for the job of judging American Idol Season 12, it sounded like a joke. But for Charlie, the proposition is no laughing matter. In fact, he thinks he’d be a perfect fit for the gig!

When Charlie called in to On Air With Ryan Seacrest yesterday, Ryan couldn’t help but ask about Nigel’s remarks. “It seems so out of the blue that it almost made perfect sense,” Charlie said. “I thought this could be a lot of fun. Seriously… I’m genuinely interested. It’s so different, it could be radical.”

Nigel himself mentioned that including Charlie would be “fun” indeed! Of course, as mentioned before, he has his list of demands before he could accept.

Think he’s the right guy for the job?
