Can you believe that it’s Simon Cowell’s last night as the acid-tongued voice of reason on American Idol? Well, here’s something you’ll believe even less: Justin Timberlake are Lindsay Lohan are reportedly being lined up as his potential replacements!

While Justin — a former Mouseketeer and boy bander — managed to carve his tenure with Nsync into a wildly-successful solo career, it is scandal-bitten actress/sometimes singer Lohan who is the favorite to join the talent contest once Cowell’s reign ends with tonight’s Season 9 finale, a anonymous FOX executive squealed to London’s The Mirror on Wednesday.

“‘American Idol’ was our top show and a lot of that had to do with the love-hate relationship between Paula Abdul and Simon Cowell. Then Paula left and now Simon’s going, too. We want a regular explosive dynamic between the judges. Lindsay has music experience and unpredictability.”

Either Crystal Bowersox or Lee DeWyze will be crowned this season’s Idol on tonight’s show.
