Paula Abdul wants to do a Talk Show

 

Paula Abdul has a lot going on post American Idol!  She has made several guest spots on different shows; most recently guesting twice on ‘Drop Dead Diva’ and hosting Vh1’s Diva’s Live (airs on September 17th).  And now she is hoping to have a Talk Show.  Oh, please let it be so.  Can you imagine how entertaining Paula’s show would be?  She would be censored so much, but even through the bleeps we would know that Paula was being Paula.  She might give Tyra a run for her money…

Even though new doors are opening for Paula, she still admits that she will miss American Idol:

“You know, to say ‘no regrets’ isn’t easy,” she says. “I feel like I have been such a big, huge part of the success of the show from day one. I loved being able to be the artist’s artist; being there from my point of view of knowing what it feels like to be vulnerable and to be out there wanting to achieve the most magical moment in a minute and thirty seconds. To be able to do that was an amazing experience and the show was wonderful for me in that regard.”

She says she’s been “in touch” with Simon Cowell, who once proclaimed that he’d never do the show without her.   “I’m going to miss them,” she says of the judges. “And I’m going to miss the experience of watching young talent evolve into a place where they get to take off and soar.”  She says “of course” she will continue to watch the show “as much as I can.”

“I had some really unforgettable moments that hit plateaus for me, and I’m very blessed to have been a part of what made television history,” she says.

 Good luck to Paula and I am praying that she gets that Talk Show!

Since Twitter is the official Announcement Service for Celebrities these days, Kirstie Alley Tweeted that she will be the new Judge on American Idol:

Okay, my assumption is that Kirstie is kidding, but you never know.  I think she would be an excellent choice for a Paula Replacement!  You never know what she is going to say, she’s funny as hell and she is available.  That’s the criteria, right?  One thing that is hilarious is how much Kirstie hits up her Twiiter page.  What did she do before Twitter came along?

American Idol Red Carpet Arrivals to Season 8 Finale!

Who would have thought? Adam Lambert and Kris Allen take to the Red Carpet before the Festivities.  The Finale was held at the Nokia Theatre L.A. Live on May 20, 2009 in Los Angeles, California.

American Idol Finale Results 5/20/09! And the Winner is…

 

 

Tonight They will crown the 8th.  Almost 100 million votes were cast last night. Over  600 million votes have come in this season.

They introduced the Judges and showed clips of their little quirks.  Randy uses the words ‘for me’ in each critique.  It was pointed out that Kara always uses the words ‘sweetie’ and ‘honey’ in her feedback.  Uh Kara?  When you are saying no, it doesn’t make it better when you add Sweetie and/or  Honey to it.  They pointed out Paula’s constant effort to show that she is a smart cookie by using large words that she may not even know what they mean (just going by the way she uses these words).  Poor baby.  It was pointed out how many times Simon has difficulty hearing things and is forever need information repeated.

American Idol Finals Recap 5/19/09

 

It’s that special time of the Season.  Tonight the American Idol Finals Performances!  It’s down to Adam Lambert and Kris Allen to battle it out.

Ryan said that it was down to The Guy Next Door VS. They Guy liner?  Ouch!

I guess tonight must be special, because Randy has on a suit of some sort.  Very strange suit with purple stripes with polka dots?  Not sure what that is about.

Adam and Kris come out and are welcomed by a crowd of screaming fans.  Kris won the coin toss last week and is choosing to perform last.

American Idol Results 5/13/09

 

Ben Stiller and his crew did a little Funny skit to open the show and let us know that the American Idol Desk that the Judges sit at is going to be part of the Smithsonian.  Over 88 million votes came in last night and only 1 million votes are separating the top two. 

They aired the Ford Music Video of the week ‘Break My Stride’.  Is it me or have the Ford Videos gotten considerably better this season?

Alicia Keyes came out to explain more about what the ‘Keep a Child Alive’ Foundation is doing .  Alicia introduced the next performer Nola- a child living with Aids who has a dream of making an album more.    But before he performed, Alicia encouraged everyone to please text the word  ‘Alive’ to  90995 and they will charge $5 to your mobile bill that wil benefit the foundation.  Nola came out and sang a Reggae version of  ‘The Greatest’  Total cuteness!

American Idol Recap 5/12/09

 

Tonight should be pretty exciting as we see our Final Three compete to be in the Finals next week.  I always feel that this week is almost as big as the finale, because going home and being recognized as a hometown hero must be Great.  Also, tonight the Idols will sing songs picked out for them by our Judges.

American Idol Results: 5/6/09

 

 

Last night the Idol Contestants Rocked it out with Rock Icon Slash as their Mentor.  There were some great moments and some not so great minutes.  Over 64 million votes registered last night to pick your top 4.  Allison, Danny, Adam and Kris.  Well we know that Adam is in the top 3, who will share those other two spots we will soon find out.

American Idol Recap 5/5/09

 

 

The show started with a recap of last week’s shocker when Adam was in the bottom two!  The conspiracy theory in me wonders if American Idol had a little fun with us to make more votes come in this week.

This week our Top Four will be pairing up and performing duets tonight.  So there will be a total of 6 songs in all!  I am truly intrigued by this, if they will be able to compliment one another.

Slash is the guest Mentor tonight.  Yes…Slash from Guns and Roses.  He is an unbelievable guitarist…but Mentor? He is currently in the studio recording his first solo CD.  Interesting.  He admitted that he never thought that he would be a Mentor, but there are a couple of standouts that he would really like to work with (I’m guessing Allison and Adam), so he is in it for a great time.  Slash and his family are actually in the house tonight.

American Idol Results 4/29/09

 

47 votes came in to decide who will be sent home tonight. I really think that there should be a limit to how many times one person can vote, so we can get a more accurate count.  I know I am a killjoy, but we might have very different results if they did.  I’m just sayin’…

The Contestants sang ‘Energy’ For their Ford Commercial.  It was actually pretty good, because they really looked like they were having fun.

Continuing with the Genre, the Idols performed ‘It don’t Mean a Thing’ and it was pretty good.  I think that Matt was the obvious standout and you can really tell that he loves Jazz.
