Steven Tyler
KARA DIOGUARDI is reportedly the reason for Steven Tyler on American Idol after she recommended him to the shows producers.
The Aerosmith front man joined the program last year after music mogul Simon Cowell and talk show host Ellen DeGeneres dropped out, and former judge DioGuardi reveals it's all because of her.
She says, "I'm a huge fan of Steven Tyler's. He actually came over to write a song last year and I just found out he's so warm and funny and sensitive. I actually mentioned his name to the (American Idol) producers."
DioGuardi also quit the show last year to make way for Tyler and new sidekick Jennifer Lopez.
This is the last season of American Idol making way for the new US X Factor with L.A Reid, Mariah Carey and Cheryl Cole rumoured to be judging
