Paula - jitters? What this really means....

Is that she has no real talent. I'm not the least bit surprised by this.

Stage jitters, nerves and bad memories of past shows are keeping Paula Abdul from performing live during Super Bowl XLII — not technical difficulties, as the production would like you to think, reports OK! magazine.

The resurrected singer and “American Idol” judge will unveil her new single, “Dance Like There’s No Tomorrow,” in a video segment that was taped before a studio audience Jan. 27. Fellow “Idol” judge Randy Jackson will also appear in the production, set to air Feb. 3 during pregame coverage from Glendale, Ariz.

According to David Hill, executive producer of FOX Sports, there wasn’t enough time to set up a live performance for Abdul. However, OK! reports Abdul is too nervous to take on such a high-pressure performance. “She is fragile emotionally and too much of a perfectionist to handle a live show,” a friend of Paula told OK!

Another source who has worked with Abdul in the past raises another point: “Right now, the only people who really see Paula raw are the ‘Idol’ people. I think she knows that if the “real” Paula reared its head at the Super Bowl, there's potential to have to do a lot of damage control.”

Lame excuses to camouflage a talentless singer!

So she can dance and have affairs with several jackson family member (La Toya was not one of them because she's the classy one of the bunch!)...

Did anyone think she was going to sing live anyway? Even if she was the Halftime show i think she would have Lypsynched, because others in the past have, and get the usual pass because they are doing dance steps.

That's what he said. "Even if she was the Halftime show i think she would have Lypsynched, because others in the past have."

It was like "Solid Gold" or "american bandstand" on a big stage.
