Singer Luke Bryan will reportedly join singer Katy Perry as a judge on the singing reality show "American Idol".

The country music crooner has got an offer from the show's producers to join Perry on the upcoming revamped singing competition, reports tmz.com.

It's unclear how much money has been offered to Bryan to join the upcoming show. It is said that Perry is getting a whopping $25 million while Ryan Seacrest agreed to return as host for $15 million.

The new season is expected to premiere some time in early 2018 on ABC. The makers are reportedly struggling to lock down the remaining judges. Charlie Puth, Lionel Richie and former judge Keith Urban are among the rumoured candidates.

The auditions for the show have started.
