Paula And Randy Roll Dice For ‘Idol’ Pay Raises

Paula Abdul and Randy Jackson of ‘American Idol’ judging fame are threatening to leave the Fox megahit show if they don’t get the huge $1.5 million salaries they’ve each asked for. “The producers have leaked word that they have been talking to singers Natalie Cole and Belinda Carlisle, leader of the ’80s group The Go-Go’s, about replacing Paula,” an ‘Idol’ insider tells Star magazine. “They did the exact same maneuver last year and at the time the threat was enough to scare Paula, and she backed down. This time, she’s not going to do that again.”
