Paula Abdul spoke with WKQI’s Mojo in the Morning in Detroit, insisting that the Ladies’ Home Journal cover story claiming she checked into La Costa Resort and Spa in Carlsbad, California for help shedding her dependence on pain pills was untrue. “It was very stressful for me to hear that and to be quoted saying something I never said,” Paula said. “I’ve never checked into a rehab clinic. I’ve never been addicted or abused drugs, and I’ve never been addicted or abused alcohol. I’ve never even been drunk in my life.” Paula insisted that she went to La Costa to relax, not for any addiction.
