And the standing up and dancing to all the singers? LOL

I didn't look as Simon's behavior as trying to ground her though, he seemed very flirty.

Texannie, I agree. That was my immediate response. They do love and respect each other despite their differences. I thought, MY, this is heating up before our eyes!

When I read posts presenting the possible drug addiction I saw the simultaneous truth. He sincerely cares about her, flirts and was possibly trying to reel her in a bit. They are not mutually exculisive behaviors.

A lot of posters here and on other boards hate Paula. I adore her and think this show is all about the judges. Replace any of them and it will disolve.

Not me, I don't hate any of the judges and I was always a fan of Paula's music. Usually she is the one judge that you can depend on to be nice to the contestants, it seems like she doesn't want to hurt anyone's feelings. But, I have noticed the behavior patterns that everyone has mentioned and wondered what was wrong...if anything.

Replace any judges? No way! It would ruin the show.

I love the judges too. They really make the show bearable lots of weeks. But that doesn't mean I don't like to make fun of them too! In fact, if I didn't adore them, I woudn't snark on them.

What Tish said!

I noticed quite a bit of bile writing about Paula at the AI board, but I didn't think anyone here was really hating on her. I can't imagine the show without Paula, Randy or Simon. And I say this with sincerity, not sarcasim - if Paula has any sort of abuse problem, I hope she can delay treatment until after May 25!

I wonder how this hit and run incident is going to affect her appearance on the show?

When she was interviewed a last year, I believe she said she had serious back problems from years of dancing and that she took heavy pain medication which would account for some of her stranger appearances on that show and her abscence from some of the auditions. I would imagine that back problems would get worse sitting in those chares for hours.

I saw Simon on some talk show not long ago and did NOT get the impression that he has the hots for her. I can't remember the exact quote, but more like she wanted him but he was not interested in her...

Simon is in a committed relationship. Ryan made reference to this on some show like ET.

Simon is obnoxious enough to think everybody wants him.
His girlfriend and Paula are good friends. Paula seems very sweet and is very good about being polite even if a performance was horrid.
I am fortunate enough to have a promotion Cd of hers for the CD that has the song "Rush". It is a gold compact which holds the Cd and even has a powder puff and a mirror. A relative worked for Warner Brother records and also gave me the Natlaie Cole Cd "Unforgettable" on the same day for a total of about 18 cd's. This was years ago when I first got my Cd player. I went from zero cd's to 18 in one day. I still love free "stuff"

But why is she "polite" to a bad performance? She is a judge, after all.. and I think she did her share of smirking, giggling, eye rolling and acting out in the preliminaries that I wouldn't call polite.

Meanwhile she isn't the least bit polite when Simon is giving his his opinion as a judge.

And yes I'm sure it is choreographed to some extent, but it is jarring, IMO.

Paula Abdul Charged With Hit-And-Run


"American Idol" judge Paula Abdul was charged Thursday with hit-and-run driving for allegedly fleeing after her car clipped another vehicle on a freeway last December. The city attorney's office filed the misdemeanor count, which carries a maximum sentence of six months in jail and a $1,000 fine.

A message left for Abdul's spokeswoman wasn't immediately returned, but her lawyer said Abdul had paid for the damage.

"Unbeknownst to Paula, there was some minor contact between the tire of her car and another vehicle on the roadway," said a statement from lawyer Neil E. Meyer.

"This week, after learning that it had been determined that her car was actually involved, Paula immediately took full responsibility and paid $775 to repair the minor property damage," Meyer said.

Authorities said Abdul was driving Dec. 20 on a highway about 15 miles northwest of downtown when she changed lanes and struck another vehicle.

The driver and passenger snapped a photograph with a cell phone camera and wrote down the license plate number of the car, which was traced to Abdul, city attorney's office spokesman Frank Mateljan said.

LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- "American Idol" judge Paula Abdul was fined and placed on probation Thursday after pleading no contest to a misdemeanor charge of hit-and-run driving.

The charge stemmed from an accident last December in which her car clipped another vehicle on a San Fernando Valley freeway.

Abdul wasn't in court as her lawyer entered the plea, city attorney's office spokesman Frank Mateljan said.

Superior Court Commissioner Patricia Schwartz sentenced Abdul to 24 months of informal probation. She also was ordered to pay about $900 in fines and penalties and to reimburse the other motorist $775 for the damage, Mateljan said.

Well they both flirt with one another. So there is something there. He is alway's looking at her blinking his eye's at her amoung other thing's. And she is alway's smiling back at him in a flirty way.

Hotlantan, Buggles beat you to it over 24 hours earlier (see above). Pretty funny, though.
