She was on The View yesterday, and she seemed miserable talking about Idol. And later she went on Barbara's radio show and really discussed how she felt about the show and its producers.
It looks like the new female judge is a way of having a new judge that American is used to when Abdul's contract is up.

She should leave Idol so she has time for her other projects. I mean, she can
um
well, there is always her..
Well.
Well, there has to be SOMETHING else she could do.
Right?
Yeah she wasn't very convincing when trying to talk up the new judge. It should make for some good TV come January.
But I do feel bad for Paula. She doesn't seem like she's handling the suicide well.

I think she is S0000000000000 cute! And she could have a talk show of her own or be a reporter. She has a wonderful speaking voice! I'd rather she her than the CBS achor chicky doing the anchorlady position.
Oh definitely!
Who really cares. She is a train wreck.
When did people actually start giving a damn about Paula Abdul?
How is she a train wreck? A stalker she has been dealing with for 17 years committed suicide outside of her house. Wouldn't you be a mess too?

She was a mess eons before the suicide.

So this girl started stalking her when she was 13? Not that it's not possible, but... well, how was that possible?
And her excuse for her silliness on air is that Simon is on her ear mic, making her laugh. Bull. She's either on something or needs to be treated for some sort of mental illness, I would guess. Yesterday on The View, it seemed to get progressively stronger as she was on. Her speech began to slur.
I feel bad for her, too. I've been a fan of hers for many years and I wish she would just leave American Idol. Staying with that show has diminished her career and credibility already.
Whoopi put it the best way this morning on The View saying she just doesn't know how to say no to a job. (Joy pissed me off saying 'We're supposed to feel sorry for her? Don't come in to work then.') She keeps going and going and doesn't sleep, doesn't eat and people keep beating up on her making her look like a total idiot and I don't believe she's as much of a mess as people think she is.
I hope this is her last season. AI is the far worse effecting drug she's had moreso than whatever meds she took for her neck injury, if any.
From the early 90's until AI, she didn't have much of a career, if any.
" Whoopi put it the best way this morning on The View saying she just doesn't know how to say no to a job."
But the only reason she has any jobs is because she's a judge on AI. When she leaves that show, let's see if we ever hear from her again.
There's always HSN, Janey.
Well, h-YEAH! She was showing that trashy jewelry on the View today and they made the audience go home with some of it.
That damn metal handkerchief thing was HORRID.
How bout when Baba Wawa put some of that stuff around her neck? Like she'd ever wear that.
I thought it was kind of cute. Worked with the rest of her outfit.
But you can't go by me, I also like Jennifer Love Hewitt and Jesse Metcalfe, so of course I'm probably as whacked as Paula is.
The fact that she was wearing EVERYTHING all at once was pretty nutty.
I see her demographic is preteeners.
I'll take Paula Abdul over any slob on The View, especially, the grotesque Joy Behar, any ****ing day of the week.
I do think Paula has gotten messed up on pain meds, but I think she's a sweet person.
And yeah. That jewelry? Yuck.
She definitely seems like a sweet person, I'll give her that, although she has been a train wreck on tv. Remember when she slept with that teenaged AI contestant? I thought he was pretty hot myself.
I don't think she really slept with him......the story conveniently came out right as he was trying to release an album. Which went nowhere.
But I guess you never know......
