When did American Idol become American Paula?? I am tired of watching her dance, her drunken (or what appears to be drunken) behavior... and then they let her sing on the show. Who cares if she is a use-to-be. The show is supposed to be about the talent of the contestants.... not about how much airtime Paula can get/

Paula's version was all equipment---she tried to pull off a Brittney sound. I really didn't hear singing!!!----I don't really think that she can sing anymore, but Kara's voice is the bomb--she has a great voice, she should perform on Idol......Paula are you sure your not on the pills still? Why did you always say you weren't addicted????----Look at alot of the old Idol tapes!!!

Paula You rock girl, you were on your game tonight. Fab dancing, I was just as proud of you as if I knew you, and unfortunatly I don't. However I am supprot your efforts and your big heart. For those who are jealous and judgemental perhaps you would like to walk in Paula's shoes I dare you! Paula from one older girl to a younger somethimes life just "S" but you keep on dusting off your own bottom and keep on going All my best .

Paula Abdul not only likes to show her breasts but she shows her bias for contestants. I think it is very un fair of her. She should try more to be impartial.

Paula Abdul is nothing but a burned out , old has been. She can't even get a coherent thought out of her stupid mouth. If she has any money saved up from whatever it is she used to do, she should retire and become a hermit, live off her savings and never show her face-lifted face again. Does that sound like I don't like her at all? I hope so.

Paula Abdul is, without a doubt the most idiotic fool EVER on any television show! I am not and have never been a violent person, but I would PAY Simon to belt the moron!
