Country star Toby Keith has turned down a seat on the judges panel of American Idol alongside Randy Jackson and the newly signed Mariah Carey.
Keith’s publicist confirmed the report that Keith was asked to join the upcoming twelfth season of the singing competition, but did not accept.
The rep told CountryWeekly.com that Keith was “flattered” by the invitation, but did not feel it was the right fit for him.
Other big names in the music business that may now be back in contention include country star Brad Paisley, Nick Jonas, and Pharrell Williams.
