I don’t hate Paula — let me clear this up — and I don’t ever want to replace her as a judge. And Ryan Seacrest was right to say (like any real Idol fan would also say), “She’s part of our family and we love her.”
Last night, Seacrest addressed the much-celebrated gaffe, “It sparked a lot of gossip about Paula, and I read some of this online this morning. And just for the record, the rumors, they’re not true.” And I have to admit this blog is one of them (read some of this online this morning). I got 1000+ hits yesterday and the other day because of Paula, obviously stating how big this news is for both Idol and non-Idol fans.
I have to admit that last night she won my heart. When asked why was she always so kind to the contestants, she simply answered, “Somebody has to,” and explaining further by acknowledging how hard it is to be critiqued in front of millions of people.
For the record, it’s not Paula who’s to ever hate here (or even blame) but the show’s “obvious” rigidness. But what the heck, it’s also the reason why I love the show! LOL!
