During an interview with the radio show “Taste of Country Nights,” the CMT Music Award winner admitted that his fellow judge’s reveal was not exactly a “huge shock” to him.
“I had heard whispers that she was thinking about it – it wasn’t like a huge shock,” said Bryan, who joined “Idol” with Perry and fellow judge Lionel Ritchie in 2016. “I think she kinda just got caught up in the moment with Kimmel and maybe announced that she was done.”
“It’s been a good run with Katy, and she and I have developed a great friendship and to work alongside her, I mean, heck, I was there before her daughter was born, and now her daughter is three years old,” he added.
In February, the “Fireworks” singer officially announced her “Idol” departure during an appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live.”
“I think this probably will be my last show, my last season for ‘Idol,’” Perry said. “I mean, I love ‘Idol’ so much… It’s connected me with the heart of America, but I feel like I need to go out and feel that pulse to my own beat.”
