"Leann Rimes and Shannen Doherty are reportedly on NBC&amp;#039;s wishlist to join America&amp;#039;s Got Talent. Carly Simon is also said to be on the shortlist to replace Sharon Osbourne on the show&amp;#039;s judging panel, reports TMZ.   Show producers are allegedly searching for a &amp;quot;strong and opinionated&amp;quot; female to take the seat of Osbourne, who quit the show in August. While the trio of stars are on the shortlist, no official offers have been made to sign them up for the next season.   Meanwhile, Howie Mandel and Howard Stern are reportedly yet to sign contract extensions, meaning that the entire judging panel may see a change. Howard Stern said back in August that he is hoping for a &amp;quot;miracle&amp;quot; return of Sharon Osbourne to the panel. America&amp;#039;s Got Talent will return for an eighth season on NBC in 2013. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
