Jennifer Lopez admits Steven Tyler departure solidified her decision to leave 'American Idol'



Turns out Jenny had a gun, and all she needed was Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler to pull the trigger.
Former "American Idol" host Jennifer Lopez, who announced her departure from the show to Ryan Seacrest last Friday, has admitted that Tyler’s exit helped solidify her decision to leave.
“We had magic,” Lopez told ABC’s Amy Robach on Sunday. “I don’t know, with him gone, it might be a different formula.”
Tyler released a statement the day before Lopez’s announcement, in which he wrote, “I strayed from my first love, Aerosmith, and I’m back – but instead of begging on my hands and knees, I’ve got two fists in the air and I’m kicking the door open with my band.”

Airline passenger who was stabbed in the mouth by needle hidden in his turkey sandwich put on anti-HIV drugs... as he fears pins in food aboard FOUR flights are part of terrorist plot
The airline passenger who was stabbed in the mouth by a needle hidden in his turkey sandwich aboard a flight from Amsterdam has been put on a newly-approved anti-HIV drug in case the pin was laced with disease. 
James Tonges fears the needle could be part of a terrorist plot because others were found in a total of six sandwiches served to passengers aboard four Delta Airlines flights from the Dutch airport to the United States on Sunday. 
The FBI has launched an investigation and has interviewed each of the passengers who found the inch-long sewing needles. Delta has responded by serving only pre-packaged products on its flights. The vendor that made the sandwiches says it has increased its security in light of the incidents.
