It’s Official: Paula Abdul is Leaving American Idol
Aug 5th
Now it is official. Paula Abdul is leaving American Idol. And in some small way, she will be missed. Her standing up and dancing to songs no matter how terrible they sounded will forever be burned into my memory. At the end of the day it comes down to dollars and cents. She was asking for $20 million a year for her to stay on the show and the Idol producers were only offering a 30% raise. Apparently this chick only made $2 million a year all the way back from the beginning.
I also know that Paula has had some alcohol problems in the past and I loved tuning in to see if she had some booze in her system both during the audition phase and during the actual contest stage. Simon Cowell inked a deal worth $145 million a year and Ryan Seacrest inked a $40 million 3 year deal with the show. I personally think that the Idol producers were thinking about giving her the boot when they hired Kara DioGuardi but Paula and her reps are insisting that she made the choice to leave all on her own.
Paula took things to her Twitter account saying, ” With sadness in my heart, I’ve decided not to return to Idol. I’ll miss nurturing all the new talent, but most of all being a part of a show that I helped from day one become an international phenomenon.” I wouldn’t go all the way to say that she helped the show in any way but I guess that is a delusion of grandeur. So long Paula! Have a drink on me! See you… never anywhere again.
Allison Iraheta Get A Record Deal
Jun 10th
Former American Idolcast-off Allison Iraheta, who has an amazing voice and an even better stage presence is getting a record deal with 19 recordings. She isn’t the only Idol from this recent season to ink a deal with the company. Kris Allen, the winner and runner-up Adam Lambert will also be signed by 19.
I think Kris Allen’s voice is exceptional and I do enjoy listening to Adam Lambert but I say this chick should have won it all. She sounds like a mini Janis Joplin, only with more range. she said, ” I think I’m still in shock that this is happening- getting to record my first album and this whole awesome experience is a dream come true.” I am happy for this kid. I doubt her career will extend past a few hundred thousand downloads from iTunes, but that is a dream come true to some people. Welcome to the d-list, you are not alone.

Kara DioGuardi Says Adam Lambert Was Always Out Of The Closet
May 29th
Kara DioGuardi doesn’t exactly fit in with all of the other American Idol judges. She is kind of the dark horse. Of course being a dark horse would mean she is a really good AI judge and that for now she is just misunderstood and will eventually prove herself. I don’t believe this.
In an interview on ABC’s The Viewone of those cunts asked her if she thought that Adam Lambert was gay. She said, ” I don’t think that Adam [Lambert] was ever in [the closet].” But this dipshit had to know that people have been speculating about his sexuality for weeks and he hasn’t publicly said he is gay yet. This is just another train wreck judge stepping on her own tongue. Before Paula was a drunken mess who couldn’t keep her trap shut but since AI has deemed her a drunken invalid that is too fucked up to function, they hired Kara to make all the press.
I personally would wish that Adam would just own up and say “yea I’m gay.” One report speculated that if Adam won it would be because he is gay and that if he lost it would be because he is gay. I think people voted genuinely last week and voted for who they thought was the better singer. Or musician as a whole. And I agree, Kris Allen has more talent. This story isn’t about Adam Lambert being gay or straight. It is about how Kara is a moron and can’t shut her mouth when it is more important. Congratulations Kara. I will probably not be seeing you next year. Kara= FAIL.

Clay Aiken Is Sour
May 22nd
Clay Aiken is a loser. I understand a lot of people think he is an amzing singer, and are just gaga over him, but I don’t think he is all that great. He is openly gay and that takes a lot of courage to be in the media spotlight and I respect him for that. But that doesn’t change my opinion that he is a whining little bitch. He proves just how whiney and how bitchy he can be on his personal blog on his official websites that you have to pay to join.
He says on Adam Lambert and the American Idol season finale, ” This year, I happened to turn it [on] during the minute that Adam Lambert was singing “Ring Of Fire” and, at that moment, thought my ears would bleed. Contrived, awful and slightly frightening!” OK, no top 2 American Idol winners sing that bad. Clay is just pissed because Adam Lambert is totally gonna steal the gay AI spotlight away from him and Clay Gaiken will continue to have a shallow and pathetic life.
If it makes him feel any better, I am sure if he gets exhausted from all the media hype surrounding AI and all the gay controversy that has been following AI through the years, he can always go home to mama where she will take his rectal temperature and make him some warm milk and cookies. Oh that Clay Aiken’s mother. So warm. So soft. So caring.
