The AMERICAN IDOL Thread.

[skcin]

Scott thought he was safe, he was thanking God as per usual. Anthony was trying to catch his attention to tell him that Ryan didn't say they were safe.

If things go right, Anthony will be out next. After that, I don't care. I'd like to see Bo win, but I won't be upset if Carrie or Vonzell get it.

I don't know if anyone is watching Primetime right now but Paula is screwed big time. No wonder they were trying to get this program pulled...the kid has voicemails from her. Her pursuit of this contestant could very well mean a huge change for American Idol if not the end. I still think she was fooling around with Constantine as well Paula Abdul...forever everyones girl. Yikes.

and she's totally screwed. Corey's family has phone records to prove that many many calls were made from their house to Paula's phones. He also had a couple of voicemails saved that basically said don't say anything to any reporters. The calls were very frequent and some were long, one was 111 minutes. I think that Corey is telling the truth but I don't think it was necessary to drag her through the dirt in this way. Although it seems she dropped him like a hot potato when the show did. I think he was deeply hurt by that, I don't know. He definitely has an agenda to sell his new album, for sure. But I think he's telling the truth.

So we need a new thread, who will be the next American Idol judge? I believe this will be Paula's last season.

I believe it's her last season as well. If the shows producers were intelligent (as I believe they are), they'd recruit someone else in order to save the show. I do agree Corey has an agenda with picking now to reveal the affair. He's no dummy.

Well, they can go from one washed up pop star who can't sing to another--Britney Spears. I wouldn't be surprised.

Sadly, the most shocking thing about the PrimeTime Live report was the photo they showed of Randy onstage with Journey, wearing skin-tight spandex pants.

Can the term "Thunder Thighs" only be used in reference to women?

I don't know why, but I'm not convinced. Cory was a con man from the gitgo. Look at everything people have done with identity theft. Look at how the Daily Show can get somebody who is a dead ringer for Laura Bush to make a lewd joke about the President jerking off two horses. So much of his evidence could have easily been manufactured. Consider this. What if Paula lost her cell phone and Cory found it? He could easily get her number. To find the names of the dogs, all he would need to do is overhear a conversation with Paula. I know I've had to be on the phone with somebody regarding my dogs before, and I know I was overheard. The thing I find suspicious is that the medicine bottle that was shown said "Paula Abdul." I don't know why, but I find it very difficult to believe that a celebrity of her stature would be using her real name in obtaining medicine. That was just a little too fishy.

As for the other contestants, let's be honest. None of them had a chance in hell of beating Ruben or Clay. Any one of those folks would have only lasted a week or two in the top twelve. While I feel bad for them, they need to get real.

Stature being coked-up-washed-up-pill-popping-idol-judge?

I don't think she ever thought he'd say anything at all. You can't deny the phone bills either. I think she screwed up royally and is going to end up having to pay for it by loosing her job. While I think the way he came out about the affair was rather ****ty, I don't doubt it happened.

[diamondsnake]

I don't know if he is being completely honest but even if he is I seriously doubt that they will fire Paula... it would be the begining of the end for American Idol if they got rid of her. It is like getting rid of Suzzane Somers on Three's Company. Well maybe not that bad, but you get the idea.

If they need a replacement... hmm how about Stevie? LOL! Or Mick Fleetwood!

I watched it. I think she did it.

I couldn't believe that! I didn't know he was in Journey.

The clerk at the Sprint store says they came in together and she bought the phone. He has no ax to grind.

Cher's just played her final, final, and-I-really-mean-it-this-time, show of her 3-year farewell tour. She's available!

Yeah, my "first initial feeling" is that Cory's being honest. I thought his parents were quite convincing too. And look at it this way - assuming it IS true - Paula only did what male judges have been doing to beauty pageant contestants since the dawn of time...so she got a little somethin' somethin' from a 22-year old hottie, good for her, I say!

[WelshWitchPMD]

Does anyone have a photo of this kid that supposedly hooked up with Paula? I have only heard him on the radio and can not see what she would have seen in him.

[Kelly]

I think this Corey has quite a bit of hard proof that this happened. We have phone records, eyewitnesses, voicemail recordings, prescription bottles, receipts...etc etc. I assume that there is some part of Paula's contract that bars her from sleeping and fraternizing with the contestants. I would say AI will have no choice but to fire her. Personally, I do not think she should be fired...it is not like she helped him get further in the competition...he was thrown off! The audience voted him through the first few rounds....What did she really do to help him? Not much.


BTW..a few years ago, there was a prescription bottle of Stevie's on ebay...it had her name on it...Stephanie Nicks. If I remember correctly, it was for an asthma medication. The add said that a maid found it in a hotel room used by Stevie, in NY, I think? So, apparently, celebs do use their real name on prescriptions.

It's on right now.
That guy is ugly!
