Slog - Comments on Oh, Paula… Paula… Paula… http://slog.thestranger.com/2007/01/oh_paula_paula_paula For those of you buzzing over the news that walking trainwreck COURTNEY LOVE is being considered as a possible replacement for walking trainwreck PAULA ABDUL on American Idol… well, you never really believed that did you? Unfortunately, Courtney apparently bought it, and Idol producer Nigel Lythgoe spoke to US Weekly today, confirming that Ms. Love has indeed been punk'd. "I did not call Courtney Love and am afraid someone may have misrepresented me. Courtney Love is a very talented artist, but the judges for American Idol are Paula, Randy and Simon. We have no plans to add to or replace...

Sure she's not Michael J. Fidgety, but still it's more sad than funny.

Chris Sligh attended Pensacola Christian College and the mighty hater-haven Bob Jones University. He's my pick for this year's "American Idol Contestant to Denounce 'Gay Lifestyle' Publicly for Little or No Reason."

If she's got a legitimate medical condition, then she needs to get treatment and not act like an ass on T.V. If she's whacked out on painkillers and no one on the show is doing an intervention that's not my responsibility...wait, i'll take the responsibility: HEY PAULA, IF YOU ARE READING THIS AND IF YOU DO HAVE A DRUG PROBLEM, YOU NEED TO GET SOME HELP, GIRLFRIEND!!

there, i've done the responsible thing.

And as to Paula's very entertaining performance last night,what's great is to compare it to previous weeks, where she was practically comatose...girl is on a roller coaster ride!

I haven't heard anyone talking about the show since the morning after the Seattle tryouts episode(s). Never mind; I actually stopped caring about the answer midway through typing that sentence.

Right on the middle of the tightrope.

Expect nasty verbal free for alls, fist fights maybe - liven it up a lot.

Paula is sweet and talented. Simon is making billons, the talent is awesome on the stage - new singers are a prime commodity in the music machine.
