Fox: Paula Had Technical Difficulty

Paula AbdulBy now you've seen the video of Paula Abdul's wacky appearance on a Seattle morning news show (click here if you haven't), where she was promoting tomorrow's premiere of "American Idol." Paula's reps chalked up her odd behavior to "technical problems." Now Fox has issued a statement standing behind their Laker girl.

"All of us at Fox have tremendous respect and admiration for Paula Abdul," the statement reads. "She is a consummate professional who always gives 100% to everything she does. Last week, during a satellite press tour there were intermittent technical difficulties, including severe audio issues in which multiple stations were speaking to her at once.

"Rather than getting angry about these difficulties, or stopping the tour, Paula forged ahead and decided to have fun with the increasingly challenging situation. Unfortunately, because reporters and viewers were unaware of the situation, her humor was misconstrued."

Suuuuuuuure.

20. I like the old Paula, I know she has medical problems . . .but can't they replace her. She takes away from the fun of American Idol. Oh wait I don't watch American Idol . . .

22. I think Paula may have Parkinsons or something?Not trying to poke fun.
I've finally seen the infamous Seattle intv. She reminds me of Michael J. Fox.
Wonder if that's the case???? I'm a Paula fan. Hope the best for her.........

26. What lies. What lies. I can't believe Fox would then help cover it up more. Such BS!

27. not only do you have to be drunk to be on American Idol, but you must be drunk just to watch it.

28. HAHA this is way too funny... My friend worked in a hospital in Frisco and Paula came in and gave a fake name and said she needed help because she OT on some sort of drugs... She gave a fake name but the whole staff recognizes her... She is a drug addict and she was defiantly on something when she did this interview.
