Paula Abdul in American Idol – for How Much?

The Hollywood Reporter, delving into the issue that inflamed the fans – whether Paula Abdul is going to stay in American Idol – came up with the details of the deal. And some deal it is!

Paula Abdul in American Idol


Last year Abdul drew about $2 million for playing her part in the singing competition, but for unknown reasons – and very controversial ones for a lot of people, seemingly – this year she wants $20 million for doing the same thing. And she refuses to budge.

When offered a 30-percent rise that would have brought her to a nice figure of $10 million by a long-term contract, she turned the offer down without a hint of hesitation.

According to the New York Times information Paula Abdul “felt unappreciated”, supposedly having been impressed by the reports that Ryan Seacrest, AI host, secured a $ 45-million multi-year deal.

Well, maybe it doesn’t all boil down to mazuma… A human factor that may have driven Paula Abdul into the decision-making mood was the introduction of the fourth judge, Kara DioGuardi, which left Abdul “surprised and upset”.

Now the new season begins, featuring Kara, and what about Abdul? Will she battle grimly on for her scarred reputation?
