We like Paula. We really do. She's the VFTW judge for sure. But do we have to hear every 5 seconds if something changed in her saga to have her contract negotiated with Idol or if she might have another job? TMZ has been bouncing back and forth all weekend with tips. Apparently, Paula wants back on American Idol and turned down Dancing With The Stars. But then Paula talked to ABC about having her own variety show or a talent competition that she would produce. Either way, we do want Paula the train wreck back on our TVs, Idol or not... but will someone just give her a deal so the rumors can stop?

With all of the Paula Abdul pity in the air, someone had to kick her when she was down. Media IQ issued a study that said that Paula Abdul is the American Idol judge that most people fast forward through while watching their Tivo. This study is bullshit though, as they say that Randy is the most popular.

Let us explain what actually happens: People start watching Randy and forget they have to listen to the judges. So as he begins to talk, they hit fast forward, but it takes a few seconds because their brains are momentarily frozen while trying to comprehend the nonsensical comments from Randy. After fast forwarding, the viewers then hit Play when Simon comes back on, realizing that the judge comments are almost over.

Finally, someone did it. Perpetual tool Constantine Maroulis got into a fight over Paula Abdul and lost, according to the NY Daily News.

“It was hilarious! Constantine got into it with this guy who was probably 6 inches shorter and 60 pounds lighter,” laughs an observer. “The guy body-slammed him and punched him in the face and then just stood up, straightened his tie, and said, ‘B—ch, don’t you ever,’ before walking away."

Anyone who punches Constantine is a friend of ours. We don't care that Constantine was defending Paula Abdul. The guy is just reprehensible and deserves it.

Rumors have been going around that Victoria Beckham (aka Posh Spice) was going to replace Paula Abdul as the 4th judge on Idol. Thankfully, that only seems to be half true. Victoria has been called upon just to guest judge in at least 2 episodes, according to The Mirror. We don't need a 4th judge, Idol, so you better keep her as a guest. Or just do the right thing and fire Randy and Kara. No one cares about them.
