Paula Abdul was videotaped receiving a gift from a fan outside Beso in Hollywood on Friday (December 26), telling the assembled paparazzi that “I’m not leaving until Simon leaves” ‘American Idol’. Paula added that she’s “grateful for a 20 year career”. Watch footage below.

hehe I LOVE HER. of course she isn’t gonna leave idol!
20 year career? I would say she’s been around close to 30 years by now. she started when she was very young. and I bet- she will be around for 30 more years! =) because Paula has *It*. Very few people have It. but she really does. I guess that’s part of the reason why she keeps surviving every single controversy.
