Paula Abdul chatted with Ladies Home Journal recently and she spoke about her time on American Idol.
“I have a strength I didn’t know I had. It’s a live program, and a naughty British man is constantly making people think there’s something weird in my Coca-Cola cup…But I’m proud of myself. I always figure out a way to swim.”
So Simon is the reason, hmmm? I’m sure it has nothing to do with the slurred speech or bizarre antics. Nah..!
Paula also discussed American Idol’s past contestants and how they deal with fame.
“Our performers think they’re going to manage, but the reality is they’re not. It can be a letdown even when you advance, because success is never what you expect. I just hope they have loving friends and family if they have to go back to their jobs at Burger King.”
Abdul went on to dish about her new boyfriend, restaurateur J.T. Torregiani.
“I’ve experienced real loneliness, so I love knowing there’s someone I can share the good and the not-so-good with. And I want kids! If it doesn’t happen naturally, I can always adopt.”
leave her alone. you dont have to pick on everything she says. she is a sweetheart. and yes sure there are times when she acts a bit wacky (which makes american idol way more entertaining than it would be otherwise), but most of the time she acts perfectly normal.
