Becoming a judge on American Idol was a risky move for Jennifer Lopez — but her intuition drove her to do it. In conversation with Nikki Glaser for Interview Magazine released Wednesday, Oct. 9, Lopez opened up about her decision-making process behind joining the singing competition show as a judge.

When J.Lo was asked to be a judge on “American Idol,” her team told her: “Don’t do that or nobody will ever hire you for a movie ever again.”

Jennifer Lopez revealed that she was advised not to join a major reality TV show during a recent sit-down with 'Interview Magazine.'
