Paula Abdul Wants It Both Ways

Yes, you may think from the headline that I mean that Paula Abdul may want some attention from both sexes, but that is not what I meant. Sure, she might want to do that, but that isn't what this post is about. Yesterday Paula told Access Hollywood that she doesn't think there should have been a fourth judge added to American Idol and things were fine the way they were.

So, she basically threw Kara under a bus and then backed over her again for good measure. Umm. Paula what were the producers supposed to do? You keep threatening to quit and were thisclose to not having your contract renewed because of your, umm, how can I say this nicely? Sometime difficulties communicating in a way that everyone but your dog can understand you.

Were the producers just supposed to have no backup plan? Did you finally realize that a fourth judge means hey don't need you next year and you realize that singing thing isn't working out so well? And speaking of singing when is your Today Show appearance happening? I have been waiting for the damn thing forever.

I think Paula realized she has no career prospects other than Idol and that everyone will forget about her and so now she is "let's get rid of the judge." I have a better idea. Let's just rid ourselves of the show for a year or two and make people really want it again.
