Paula Abdul quits American Idol
 

American Idol judge Paula Abdul is quitting the TV singing contest after eight years.


good for her... now she will make nothing... American Idol was the best thing that happened to her..

good that show is retarded...

She must have something better in the works lol

And what is she going to do with her life now?

She'll be sucking farts off of Greyhound Bus benches before you know it!

i didnt know she could use a computer

She was so loaded. She is such a drug addict, its funny she cant be on camera without being on meds... she probably goi into rehab next, watch ;)

watch this and see how loaded she is!



looks like alcohol and vicodin...

not surprised at all

Holy shit lol... :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

She was shit canned. They're just trying to save face and allowing her to make a "graceful" exit and say she was leaving on her own terms. It's no secret, this has been in the works ever since they brought on a 4th judge. I could see this coming a mile away and I don't even watch the show.

next thing ya know she'll be on GFY asking for a job to make galleries, crop thumbs, etc. ;-)

Her contract was for like 10 mil over 3 years. Seacrests is like 45 mil over same period, and forget about Cowel.. he made 35 mil last season alone!

Abdul is constantly working anyway, she's got so many irons in the fire she needs helpers just to tell her where to go next. Insane.

I'm shocked they let her stay on this long. That show is near death anyway.

She won't be able to afford her 200 pills/day :(

thank you.

lol at the previous comments like being shitcanned and having to be on drugs to be on camera and ai being near death. <- retarded.

Oh well.. She has a record she still gets a few pennies from in royalties, uh um I think. LOL

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

considering she has admitted to being a pain killer addict, has been on pain meds sine the 90s, and is known to drink alcohol, its not hard to put two and two together, especially when anyone in their right mind can see she is loaded everytime she opens here mouth.

the only thing retarded is making statements like yours, even when a perso admits she is an addict LOL

Many people online comment about her being a bit out of it when she comments on American Idol, its because she is most likely on pain meds and a slight mix of booze.

She has admitted wearing a pain meds patch that delivers meds stronger than morphine.

She should have seen this coming with them adding Kara DioGuardi as a judge on the show last season.

i'm fully aware of the fact she's been on cam loaded but it's more than stupid to *put 2 and 2 together* and come up with "she cant be on camera without being on meds."



you have no idea about wtf she's on and when, and while you prolly think you are a drug use expert, you are out of your element assuming she's on drugs every time she's on cam AND saying what drugs even. just stop.

:upsidedow

anyone who keeps up with the show knows pay negotiations for the judges has been going on for more than a few months now.

well at least you admit I was right :)

:thumbsup

oh noes!

Good old Fent.

yes, fletchxxx, it's clear how important that is to you so, sure, think that if you want.

I don't see what's funny about it? Do you think they wanted to keep her there?

July 17th- LA Times:

I guess maybe calling it "shit canned" rings a little harsh, maybe it's better to say she was "let go", or "released to pursue new and exciting ventures". :1orglaugh

Having a steel spike in your spine or whatever she has can't be too much fun. If she has constant chronic pain then I cant relate, being lucky enough to be mostly pain free.
but my god some of those early videos where she was said to be wasted really looked like she was wasted lol.

Anyway, between the first 20 or so episodes of rejects and the massive "synergy" of advertising in that show, it became too hard for me to watch anymore. FordCocaColaIdol. Dawg. meh

Man how will I ever live now? LOL

there's nothing in the article (or any of the articles i've read about the matter) that even remotely suggest she was shitcanned, let go, or released. fact is, the negotiations were private.

did they want to keep her there? i'd say so.

did they want to give her a raise similar to the others? no.

why? who knows. personally, i liked seeing her on the show and i thought her and kara had good chemistry on screen.

and speaking of kara, she doesn't have a deal done with ai either, that doesn't mean she's been shitcanned, let go, or released.

Show will slowly crash and burn now IMO.

Kara did a shitty job I thought.

Yeah you could tell how fucked up she was most of the time. Especially if your a weekly viewer and arent naive as hell. Some weeks she would be more fucked up then others.

and another dope fiend expert.

I have found your soft spot-

"Straight Up" wasn't bad for it's time, though "Rush Rush" is pretty unbearable IMHO.

:winkwink:

The world will not end because of this.

American Idol looks like the easiest job on earth. Pay me millions and I can definitely come up with some witty sarcasm. If you need to me to OD on painkillers regularly I can do that for a few million as well.

That thought occurred to me as well.
