Lambert will be replacing Keith Urban, who is mourning with his wife Nicole Kidman after her father died in a fall last week.

The show broke the news via its Twitter account, writing, “Adam Lambert will be serving as guest judge at the NY auditions. Our thoughts are with Keith and his family during this difficult time.”

The singer brought some serious style to the American Idol auditions in New York earlier on today, in a figure-hugging snakeskin-print dress.

Staying true to the reptile-inspired print, Jennifer completed the eye-catching outfit with a matching bag and a sassy pair of court shoes.

With her hair styled half up half down, the mother-of-two, who will be judging American Idol Season 14, looked stunning.
