Britney Spears American IdolBritney Spears as a guest judge on American Idol could have been a reality, but it appears that last year was the cutoff for the troubled singer.

Idol producer Nigel Lythgoe recently explained that he doesn’t believe that the pop star is ready for prime time at the moment.

“I would have had Britney Spears on last year, when I thought she was trying to get it all back together, but Britney at this moment in time is not well enough,” Lythgo lamented to MTV

He went on to say that she still has oodles of talent, but that Spears truly needs some “looking after” in order to get back to where she used to be.

Looking forward to the next season, the producer reassured fans that the show won’t rely too heavily on celebrity mentors.  “We will spend more time talking to the kids about their lives [and] what they want from this competition,” he promised.
