Paula Abdul Targeted By ABC Investigation
April 29, 2005 - Jay Leno joked during his Tonight Show monologue on Thursday night, “ABC is going to do an expose where they say ‘American Idol’ is fixed. Ooh. There are rumors that Paula Abdul might have had inappropriate contact with one of the contestants. Lawyers say if these allegations are true people will go to jail. This is great. Is this really the Abdul we need to capture right now? Aren’t there other Abduls out there that are more dangerous than this one?”
Paula Abdul Opens Up To ‘ET’
April 27, 2005 - Paula Abdul spoke with ‘Entertainment Tonight’ about why she disappeared for several years before returning to the scene on ‘American Idol’. Abdul denied substance abuse and an eating disorder, and said she went over a year without an audible voice due to vocal chord injuries.
I happen to know for a fact that Paula had a drinking problem less than a year ago, she stayed at the Hotel I work at a couple of months back, and ordered Hella Liquor, she was the only one in her room. (she was so drunk we had to keep checking on her on the down low so she didn’t get pissed at us.) We (me and a bellman) went up to her floor just to confirm that she was in her room okay and from the moment the elevators opened we could hear her Drunkenly berating someone on the phone. (Her words were slurring, she was making all kinds of noise like she was throwing something around.) The conversation went something like this… “I don’t give a damn Mutha F**ker who you think you are, I made you you sorry S.O.B.” (Pause) “Who the Fu** do you think you are? NOBODY! Your a F**kin nobody, you work for me, no one else.” (all words were slurred.) She also Doesn’t believe in tipping, she didn’t tip our Bellman or Shuttle driver once, but she sure ran them ragged.
Umm….. I could of sworn I seen her on one of those shows that shows celebrities life stories and what not. Maybe it was E True Hollywood Story, I don’t know it was one of those shows, but anyway I know darn well I saw her on there talking about her having a problem such as an eating disorder. Why is she lying though. I really think she is on something now considering her dumb comments she makes I think she is really on something
People annoy me so bad, talking about… what a person “will” and “wouldn’t” do-ESPECIALLY when they are not around these people 24/7/365 to be able to say something so discounting. When: SEX, MONEY or DRUGS is behind something “alleged,” the best thing you can do, if you just DON’T know and aren’t around that person 24/7/365 is to shut your mouth and simply state: “well, I HOPE she wouldn’t have done something so stupid like that.” When sex, drugs or money is behind something-a wise person should never discount what they don’t know even when you think you know the person, because when those three things are behind something “alleged,” you’d be quite surprised at how people will shock you, with something you never thought they’d be capable of.
