Molly Goodson — Mon, 09 Jan 2012 10:33:01 PST

Jennifer Lopez joined Steven Tyler, Randy Jackson, Ryan Seacrest, and their producers for yesterday's American Idol panel at the Television Critics Association Fox press day. When Jennifer was asked what dress she was wearing, Ryan was quick to interject saying the right question is, "Who are you wearing?" though she still couldn't remember the answer. Earlier in the morning, the Fox executive panel addressed the stories about Ryan leaving the show, but he was there with a smile on his face alongside the three judges. Ryan also spoke to the rumors, saying he can't imagine leaving Idol. Ryan is fresh off a St. Barts vacation with bikini-clad girlfriend Julianne Hough and has a perfect tan to kick off award season red carpets this week.

Jennifer, Steven, and Randy weren't afraid to throw a few punches at the other singing reality competition shows out there, especially The Voice. The Fox president in charge of American Idol even called out The Voice for having Kelly Clarkson on as a coach this season, saying, "It's a compliment to Idol because we have created the superstar. We're not hiring a lot of people from The Voice to be on our show." Check out the 10 best quotes from American Idol's TCA panel on Buzz.
