and thank god the k-mart version of ruben studdard finally got cut. arrogant lil piece of shit....you are the weakest link, goodbye!!

I 100% believe this kid.

Anyone older then 30 years old knows the real Paula Abdul!

1) She broke up one of the Jackson Brother's Marriages

2) She had one of the Mary Jane Girls hit all her high notes on her albums

That is her past! WE all know other guys she used & screwed.

Now to this kid, Phone Records! Cough Syrup!

She is DONE! But this is a good move to get rid of her anyways, she sucks!!!

she aint going anywhere....they would have canned her ass before the show even aired...

as it is, this will probably increase ratings. and the FCC has made no announcement of any pending investigations.....

and what is ABC News airing this Entertainment Tonight size scandal? What are the roles of the judges folks? think about it..every week they give advice to the contestants, thats their job. so to argue that Paula gave special treatment to someone wont hold water as far as the FCC is concerned. Thats her role within the show.

and its not sexual harrasment because theres no quid pro qou. she doesnt determine the outcome, voters do..

now, as to the greater conspiracy theories out there? ehh..who knows..but paula aint going anywhere...

she sucks!!![/quote]


apparently, lol
(but does she swallow )

Uh-huh. That freaky, ugly-ass sportcaster dude got waaaaay more freaky, and it just upped his profile.

I slammed her for being a pill-poppin' loony, but it's not fair to slam her for knocking some boots (if it's even true....I smell a "Can I get a 16th minute?" situation)

Am watching it now here on the West Coast.

All I keep thinking is: "damn, he's SOOOOO ghetto, why did Paula pick HIM?!"

It's crazy but nothing, nothing seems to hurt that show. I admit, I'll watch every so often.

I agree she ain't going no where....but why would FCC have to investigate??? they weren't screwing on air...besides whether he beat it up or not...he still is an oppurtunist who is jaded and needs to get over himself.

'Idol' scandal could help, not hurt, the show
By Ann Oldenburg, USA TODAY

The question now: How will pop-culture darling American Idol weather this latest scandal?

Fox and Idol producers have said they will "look into any evidence of improper conduct" and have asked the public to examine Clark's motives.
ABC

ABC, in a special edition Wednesday of Primetime Live, devoted an hour to investigating the Fox show and the personal relationship between Season 2 contestant Corey Clark and Idol's most contestant-friendly judge, Paula Abdul.

Clark, 24, says he and Abdul, 42, had a secret sexual affair. He also says she helped him through the competition, giving him her prescription cough syrup to soothe his throat and cash to buy clothes, and helping him pick the song that got him into the final 12.

Andrea Brown Easterly, 32, of Alpharetta, Ga., says this changes her opinion of the show. "I am certainly more inclined to think producers and judges are tinkering with contestants and results," she said after watching Primetime. "However, it does not make me want to stop watching the show. It almost adds to the drama, in a sick sort of way."

Brad Adgate, an analyst for ad-buying firm Horizon Media, doesn't expect a backlash. "I thought they were pretty strong allegations," he said Wednesday night. "But this is the 21st century, and this stuff is not that shocking as perhaps it would have been a decade ago. All of this controversy just draws viewers."

Idol's ratings have risen each season since its debut in 2002; Primetime moved to Wednesday this week in hopes of capitalizing on the frenzy. Idol averages 25.3 million viewers on Wednesdays; Primetime draws 6.9 million viewers Thursdays.

On Primetime, Clark said Abdul slipped him her phone number through an intermediary. He talked of the relationship unfolding over the first three months of 2003. During one late-night meeting, it turned into romance, he said: "She came up behind me and just started kissing my neck."

Two of Clark's friends, as well as his parents, appear on camera to corroborate the story.

Even if Clark was cozy with Abdul, she couldn't have directly affected the outcome of the contest; viewer voting determined the finalists.

And although Clark advanced to the finals, he was later disqualified for not revealing that he had been charged with assaulting his sister and resisting arrest in Topeka in 2002.

However, as a group of Season 2 contestants said on Primetime, Abdul's advice could have given Clark an unfair edge. "For those who put so much work and effort into it — and someone that's kind of getting the easy ride in? Absolutely wrong," Nasheka Siddall said.

Abdul denied the allegations last week and said Clark is a "liar" and "an opportunist." Fox and Idol producers have said they will "look into any evidence of improper conduct."

At www.realitytvworld.com, message-boards fans already are suggesting replacements for Abdul, among them Debbie Gibson, Janet Jackson, Cyndi Lauper and Courtney Love.

because its technicially a "game show" which has to follow certain rules.....

MendesCity said:

exactly. the whole thing has all the earmarks of the cat wanting to be in the limelight for a couple seconds longer, no matter how much he was like, "no no, this isn't for publicity!"

i'm kinna iffy on paula gettin dropped from the show, but i have a feelin that ai may change its rules so shit like that won't happen again in the future (that is, if the show does indeed have a future...reality teevee is pretty fickle).

meltwithu said:

Oh, I would start watching if Courtney was a judge! That show would become insane within seconds of her appearing!

As for the "scandal", I think the kid probably did have an affair with Abdul, but its obvious that he is only revealing the info because he has a CD and book coming out. He is trying to generate publicity.

Oh, and Meltwithu's "ignorant slut" comment is a reference to an old Saturday Night Live skit with Dan Ackroyd and Jane Curtain.

Its just American Idol
Who gives a crap

















Obviously I don't watch the show

thedoorkeeper said:

I agree. I so wish this "scandal" would cause the show to go away, but I doubt that will happen.

thedoorkeeper said:

i don't either. i just made comments because i saw bits of the interview-thing on abc and wondered what the hell was goin on.

cha know..im tired of people craping on reality tv...

like its any worse then all the mindless sequals hollywood produces..

like its any worse then all the crapy trash talk shows or news mags on tv...

like its any worse then aaron spelling and steven cannell tv shows....

people, crapping on reality tv does not increase your intellect.

sosgemini said:

but keeping your television off will.

sosgemini said:

I don't watch any of those either.

and good for you two....

but just because some of us can moderate our tv habits....(just like some of us can moderate our fastfood consumption) doesnt mean you have to spew your negativity...or are you soo weak that you need to reiterate your chosen stance to remind yourself not to watch the stuff because you will fall deep into the rabbit whole and destroy your life forever....just by watching one 30 minutes of reality tv? is that whats going on? eekk, im sorry..didnt know our life system was on the line.....

as you were...

and


what does it say about judging or what not in the bible?

and no, turning off the tv will *not* increase your intellect.

nor will reading a damn book...

(cause one can easily read a trashy fabio novel and get zeltch out of it)..

only educating yourself will...and there are many ways to go about learning knowledge. just because you know whats good for you doesnt mean you gotta impose yourself on everybody else in this world...

WTF was she thinking tho? That foul snitch was fugly as hell anyway,,,



I guess, she got cravings 4 young stiff sticks lol,,,

Anyway, I feel sorry babydoll. U can tell she was kinda nervous last night on AI. She had this look on her face like this boy 'bout to tell all my business.

As 4 him,,, that was a straight bitch move of him,,,you don't fuck and tell.

Oh well,,,another one bites the dust!

Damn I love that line! and the way Dan Akroyd says it too! I just keep hearing it!

What makes me laugh even more is Corey 'Beyotch' Clark pissin and moaning like he ain't got nothin to gain by singin on Primetime. He even had the nerve to say that he was in love with her. The fact that she left messages and didn't hide anything about it (no *67, leaving a VM message) says a lot dontcha think? As someone pointed out earlier she has done a ton of shit in the past. She can play the game if she wants. I don't think all is the way he tries to make it. The people vote and there is no way he could, or anyone of the others that fell short, make it past Rueben and Clay. It sounds like ABC is trying to lay down their pimp card to try to make FOX squirm.

sosgemini said:

It says thou shalt not watch crappy tv. Look it up

1. Paula ain't goin' nowhere.
2. Dude is a slimeball for kissin' and tellin'. get some fucking class about yourself.
3. I am so glad I don't watch that BS.
4. ABC oughta be ashamed of themselves. Why do folks get off on trying to bring other people down?
