As if we didn't already know about this... what took her so long to finally admit it? The New York Post reports that Paula Abdul finally comes clean in the latest issue of Ladies Home Journal. Ms. Rehabdul says she kicked a 12 year addiction to painkillers last Thanksgiving and is now clean. Paula also says that the pain patch that she often wore was "80 times more potent than morphine."

This news is about as shocking as Clay Aiken announcing he's gay. We knew you were a druggie, Paula. Everyone did. It was obvious. Why do we have the sneaking suspicion if you lied all these years about your drug use, you may not be clean now? Then again, Paula has been surprisingly lucid and intelligent this season on Idol, so she may be telling the truth.

Ahhh yes, it is all too clear now. Paula's choreographing the idol's group number, the rumors about Paula performing on the Finale. Possible release of a new album. Freemantle is grooming Paula for a glamorous exit! She'll prolly say something like "I've decided to get back into the studio...." and disappear into obscurity. Perhaps we will see her in Vegas with Gaspy.

Two words come to mind at this ever-so-startling news...

Well. Duh.

One does have to wonder if this announcement is why they hired Kara to replace her this season, though. Personally, I'd rather have drugged up Paula than full-of-herself Kara any day - Paula is so much more entertaining.

12 years...as stupid as they are, Idol producers HAD to have some idea that she wasn't lucid during shows. They probably ignored it, and public backlash, as best they could, until finally she confirmed it. Kind of like the whole Joanna Pacitti incident earlier this year. I call AI scandal.

"Then again, Paula has been surprisingly lucid and intelligent this season on Idol, so she may be telling the truth."

If this is true then good on Pauler.

The disco group sing she choreographed was actually one of the more entertaining parts of this season. It was cheesy as all hell but fun to watch. Apart from Goatkey being in it, of course. Because he's a douche.
