That wasn't a comment on the news but Perez Hilton's site freezed my computer.. so I appreciate links like yours that give me warning of the site.

I've seen teasers all over the place that Paula might stay or Paula might not stay.. and it sure could just be a ploy, or who knows?

I agree, she'd be best staying put.

Paula Abdul is unhappy. And unless the producers of "American Idol" change her frown to a smile soon, she'll dance like there's no tomorrow away from TV's No. 1 show.

"Very sadly, it does not appear that she's going to be back on 'Idol,' " David Sonenberg, Abdul's manager, told The Times when contacted about the judge's contract negotiations.

With auditions for the ninth season due to start Aug. 6, Sonenberg says he doesn't even have a proposal for a new contract from FremantleMedia and 19 Entertainment, the production companies behind the show. The new season is scheduled to premiere in January.

"I find it under these circumstances particularly unusual; I think unnecessarily hurtful," he said of the contract holdup. "I find it kind of unconscionable and certainly rude and disrespectful that they haven't stepped up and said what they want to do."

[Updated at 11:59 p.m.: Sonenberg began managing Abdul at the end of June, he said. According to him, he has "reached out to the head of business affairs at 19" and told Fox that "Paula would love to be on the show." He said Fox told him he would hear from them, but "I have not received any proposal whatsoever."] LA Times

My answer isn't going to be popular. I think Paula is a caring person, who always thinks of a fair and less demeaning way of phrasing things to contestants. She's spacey sometimes, but she's always well meaning. I do think the criticisms of her are unfair. Why can't people cut her a break, too?

I agree Twiggyish. I like Paula, spacey as she is. She adds to the show. The performers like her, she is like a big sister. They can get rid of Kara. But I think they should absolutely keep Paula.

To be honest, the only judge whose opinion I value is Simon.. the rest.. eh.. but I don't care AT ALL for Kara and Randy bores me mostly, and if they are returning, then Paula absolutely should return, even if I do FF through or tune out some of her ramblings. I agree that she adds more to the show than Kara does for sure and even Randy.

Add my voice to the Pro-Paula chorus. (even though she sometimes comes across as a space cadet, she is the compassionate heart of the show IMHO, while Simon is the searing analytical one.)

Cowell has said that he wants American Idol co-judge Paula Abdul back on the show.

Cowell is holding out hope that his co judge will return.

'She'll be fine. She'll be on the show,' he told Extra adding: 'I don't get a lot of say.

'I've just made it clear that I want Paula on the show.'

I watched something on one of the news channels about the Paula leaving story and they were saying how much stuff was coming in that was in support of her staying. I rolled my eyes and said no way, she is what everyone gripes about on that show.

But, I always thing TVCH is a great slice of American opinion, so I must take my words back she apparently does have a lot of support.

I don't care for her and would be ok with her leaving. If she stays it gives me something to roll my eyes about when the show starts but I would never stop watching because of her either.

Per Simon Cowell: I'd shag him, then afterward I'd say "I don't think that was as good as you thought it was. It was like getting it on in the bathroom of a cruise ship."

LOL......gotta love cold medicine.

American Idol's famed "Glitter Girl" auditioner, who took on Simon has died.

Alexis Cohen, whose audition for 'American Idol' devolved into one of the show's most memorable rejection meltdowns, was struck and killed by a hit-and-run driver early Saturday in a New Jersey shore town, according to officials in Ocean County.

Her face hasn't changed in years!

But those arms...yikes! I'd even rather have 'batwings' than that.

Yikes -- those arms! Nothing attractive about that. Looks sick.
