American Idol without Paula is like watching television with no t.v screen. Seriously… this is going to be an interesting season. Paula’s outfit were cute, her make-up(most of the time) were nice.. her sarcastic comments to Simon was always funny! And will certainly be missed. Not having Paula on American Idol was not a good idea AT ALL. I definitely do not think show views will be as high as it was previous seasons. The show may actually become boring.. Paula was original and kept it real. Can’t wait to see how this season will turn out… Paula will definitely be missed.
**Ultimate.Team**
w/out paula, american idol would not be as much fun
I don’t believe that FOX allowed Paula to leave. Where is their logic?? Without Paula to stop Simon, the poor kids will be SLAUGHTERED on the show!! It makes absolutely NO SENSE, in my humble oppinion. Paula’s talent will take her other places rapidly! FOX, this has to be the BIGGEST blunder you’ve successfully pulled-off yet! You deserve this show to go down the tubes without PAULA! Go girl!! We’re all “pull-in” for ‘ya!
Shame on you, network! You made zillions with the people´s phone votes, and deny a few to lovely Paula… my very firts reason to watch? Miss Dioguardi may be a clever producer, but lacks all the vibrancy, vitality and dinamite Paula packs in her lithe body. If she´s out because of you, I will never watch the show again. I swear.
i think paula should stay it ant going to be the same with out paula and simon sitting beside each other i dont think the show will be any good now with her not there……susan
Loved Paula hated the show, Now I know I wont watch it.
