After 12 years of judging on the hit television show ‘American Idol,’ famed producer Randy Jackson announced he will be leaving the show at the end of the season.

Known as “The Dawg” to viewers, the only original ‘American Idol’ judge, and as the on-air personality that popularized the phrase “Yo! Yo! Yo!” – Jackson, 56, is bidding farewell in order to focus on his other business ventures and record label.

Fox executives are rumoured to be searching for four new judges.  Who would you want to be on the ‘American Idol’ panel?
