PAULA ABDUL is moving on from the controversy surrounding her departure from AMERICAN IDOL – insisting she’s been bombarded with “wonderful offers” since leaving the show.
The 47 year old announced on Tuesday, August 4, 2009, longrunning negotiations had fallen through and she had quit the U.S. talent series after eight seasons.
Abdul has been candid about considering a new role on the small screen on popular TV competition “So You Think You Can Dance” – just weeks after the show’s judge Nigel Lythgoe revealed he would welcome the singer to the programme “without question”.
But the star insists she won’t be jumping into a new job without careful consideration.
She says, “At this point, there are so many wonderful things that are being offered to me. And I got (sic) to take a deep breath, sleep a little… and go through everything.
“And I got (sic) to tell you, I’m never going to change who I am at the core. I’m a hard worker, I love working hard and nothing gives me more joy than to be on a project and working with people who are trying to achieve the same goal. And that’s where I’m at right now.”
Who thinks Chrystal Bowersox is going to be the next American Idol? I think so as her last performance was excellent and one of the best performances I have yet heard on the show.
I really enjoyed the final 5 Idol group song last night. It was sad to see Aaron Kelly got rid of but I do think the others were better so he needed to go!
I understand American Idol winner Lee has just signed up to RCA records. Cannot wait to get his new album.
