Paula Abdul will appear in a dream sequence on the show as a bedazzled judge
According to recent reports, Paula Abdul who has been a judge on “American Idol” since it’s inception, stated on the “Late Show with David Letterman” that she is still not quite sure if she’ll be returning to show. She said, “I love my job. I do. I feel that I’ve had a really wonderful journey with the show. It’s called ‘negotiating.’ ”
According to that statement,it sounds as if she may be asking for more money because I’m pretty sure they would be willing to pay her the same amount that she’s been paid in the past,but with this rotten economy,that may not be true either.
Choreographer ,singer,and judge, Paula Abdul made the last minute decision to perform her new single, “I’m Just (Here for the Music)”,on tomorrow’s (5-6-09) American Idol Results show . Paula said she wasn’t sure if she wanted to perform it when she was given the last minute offer by the show’s producers. But she confirmed that she would indeed perform it on Ryan Seacrest’s radio show Tuesday (5-5-09) morning.
She said that she put everything together on Saturday ,and then rehearsed it on Sunday and felt really good about it. She will be joined with performances by “No Doubt” and “Daughtry.
It’s almost close to that time of year again. American Idol is gearing up for its 8th season,but it’s coming with a few changes. They are going to be showing less of the early round audition footage and more of the Hollywood week footage . Basically it means when the season starts on January 13 they will air a two hour show and another two hour show on the 14th. Then they will confine it down to just an hour show the following week and cap the audition shows off on the 29th of January.
Then the Hollywood round starts on February 3, and will get two weeks worth of shows up from just one week in past seasons. It will conclude with 36 semifinalists up from 24 in past seasons.
