Kara DioGuardi Talks Ellen DeGeneres
Posted in American Idol, Paula Abdul on the September 24, 2009
Kara DioGuardi has nothing but praise for the casting of Ellen DeGeneres as the 4th judge for the upcoming season of American Idol. She said “I think it’s a genius decision. I wish I had thought of it. I know a little bit about Ellen from watching her show and I would says she would probably be somebody who would be fair in her criticism and will try to be as supportive as she possibly could. I think it’s going to be a lot of fun. “[Ellen will get along with everyone] 100 percent. I was on her show once and she’s lovely, generous, very kind. I think it’s going to be great.” I think that pretty much translates to Ellen being the exact opposite of Paula Abdul and that’s a great thing.

Paula Abdul to Make American Idol Return
Posted in American Idol, Paula Abdul, So You Think You Can Dance on the September 11, 2009
I don’t think that Paula Abdul will be going back to American Idol but the man behind ‘So You Think You Can Dance’, Nigel Lythgoe, seems to think otherwise. He is holding off from giving the former judge a position on his dance competition show because he believes the decision to let Paula go might be reversed. Apparently he hasn’t been paying close attention to the media as Nigel wasn’t able to catch Fox Entertainment chairman Peter Rice say “Our understanding is we’ve concluded the negotiations and Paula has announced she will not be coming back.” If Idol won’t have her though, Nigel is keen on booking Paula for the dance show saying “I don’t know anybody that’s had her experience of being a dancer, of being a choreographer and of being a judge.”

Paula Abdul’s Reason for Leaving American Idol
Posted in American Idol, Paula Abdul on the August 12, 2009
According to Life & Style, Paula Abdul turned down $8 million to return to the judges’ table on American Idol. An inside source said “Paula had demanded a raise from $8 million to $12 million to stay on as a judge on Idol. And her management took a tough line with the show’s bosses and refused to negotiate. Paula’s managers issued a statement in July saying Paula hadn’t been offered a deal at all, which only inflamed the situation. After that, the relations between both sides deteriorated to the point where Paula’s management was slamming the phone down on Idol staff.” Paula was said to be shocked that she didn’t get her way and hurt because her friends Simon Cowell and Ryan Seacrest were given huge contracts.
Paula Abdul is Pissed
Posted in American Idol, Paula Abdul on the July 24, 2009
Paula Abdul is reportedly pissed off that Ryan Seacrest got himself a big American Idol contract. The Idol judge still left hanging isn’t angry at the host for his new $45 million 3-year contract but she’s bent out of shape at producers that she’s making minimum wage at somewhere between $2 and $3 million a year. Sources say that producers do want her back but they’re a little peeved that she’s now doing the Hollywood thing of pretending to walk. There are also reports that, with auditions for the next season starting on August 6, there are already plans to start them without her if they haven’t reached a deal by then.
Paula Abdul Performs on American Idol
Posted in Music, Paula Abdul on the May 7, 2009
For the first time in its 8 seasons, Paula Abdul took to the American Idol stage to perform her new single ‘I’m Just Here for the Music’. I’m not sure what modern-day computer program was used to enhance her voice but it definitely sounds like Paula in her golden days. And it definitely looked like she was lip-synching. You have to give it up to her though because she looks incredible and dances great. She never seems to age! I’m a bit miffed at why she was doing a dance track during rock week though. Interestingly, during the end of her performance, one of the “paparazzi” asked if she was going to be there next season.
Paula’s Pampering Pals

When she opens her mouth, chances are you will need a translator to figure out what Paula Abdul is saying. But you can usually bet it’ll be something juicy. Such was the case when she dropped by the “Morning Mash Up” on Sirius Radio today.
As Paula dished about how essential manscaping was, she brought up something unusual about a couple of guy friends of hers. She says these friends, “a British one and an American one with blond hair, who go to get Botox and fillers and manicures and pedicures more than I do! That’s not normal.”
Now, I may not be the brightest candle in the box, but that sounds like Simon Cowell and Ryan Seacrest. When ya think they’ll come out of the metro closet?
