Apparently CHUM FM has gotten it’s hand on a bit of American Idol 8 dirt, but we’ll file this under “rumors” for now, just to be on the safe side. The radio station is saying that Jason Mraz and Beyonce will be mentors this season. If you ask me, this is highly believable, especially Beyonce. The producers already said they’re looking into getting younger musicians on the show and I think Bey’s name was one that was specifically thrown around (along with Britney).

I hope these both turn out to be true; ideally I’d like to see Beyonce do a billboard or 2000s theme and Jason was one of my top choices for an unplugged theme to begin with, something I’ve been wanting them to do for several seasons now.
