Missing Paula Abdul on American Idol
I’ve been watching the new season of “American Idol” on the Fox network, and it occurred to me there is an element missing from the show. Something just doesn’t seem right to me.
Oh wait. Paula Abdul isn’t there anymore. That’s what is missing. I’ve been a fan of the show for several years, and Paula made the show more interesting.
I’ve enjoyed watching Paula get into heated arguments with Simon Cowell.
I got used to seeing Paula on the judge’s panel appearing to be high on prescription medication.
Seriously, there were days when Paula appeared so high on the show that she made Courtney Love look like a sober woman. That’s no easy feat.
Also, we all remember that scandal that occurred when season two contestant Corey Clark accused Paula of having a sexual relationship with him while he was competing on the show. (Paula denied all accusations, of course).
Those factors contributed to the show’s success, in my opinion.
Now that Paula resigned from “American Idol,” talk show host Ellen DeGeneres has been named as a replacement.
Ellen will begin appearing on the show sometime next month. She is a funny comedian. But unless Ellen brings her hot wife Portia de Rossi on the show too, I have no interest in watching her.
Maybe the changes in the judge’s panel will grow on me as the season progresses, and I’m sure the ratings won’t suffer in Paula’s absence. But I just wish Paula was still there.

come on not even close to the same without Paula… miss her, miss her, miss her. and i have not made a point to watch as many shows this year because of it. the show just doesn’t have the same magnetic appeal. chemistry on the show was so much better with her there.
Never understood why Corey would accuse Paula.
Was he hoping to get a second shot at the idol?
According to issues that were fully investigated by others, Paula did talk to him on the phone in an effort to assist him and others with a contract issue, but no proof was ever brought forward that they had ever met outside of the show.
Looking at his criminal record I think he was just hoping for some publicity.
I think Paula has too much class to get hooked up with the likes of him.
I’ve always thought Paula was a special lady and I also miss her.
