Paula: "In My Own Little World"

In one of her more or less coherent moments, Paula Abdul defended her wacky appearance on a Seattle morning show last week.

A calm and collected Abdul told Ellen DeGeneres that there were "two cities in my ear...I'm answering Birmingham answers but it's airing in Seattle's morning show, so it looked like I was just in my own little world." Her constant slurring and giggles were apparently meant for Alabama and not Washington.

Abdul went on to say that the only reason so much attention came of it was because she's on a #1 show, adding that she "takes my being a role model very seriously." Role model? Sounds like she's drifted back into her "own little world" again!

31. I noticed on Idol tonight that she seemed "not present". Like she was distant and had nothing to say. I wonder if Jewel is going to take her place.
There is NO doubt that she needs help. She is a MESS. I agree. I think she was drunk tonight.

35. What about tonight on American Idol? We could not believe what we were seeing! She was more of the entertainment, than the show! She was pathetic! & if she wasn't drunk she sure is on something!

38. What kills me is that she was acting the SAME way on the morning show in Los Angeles (on FOX) and no one is saying anything about it! If you compare her behavior from the first season to any subsequent season, you can see that she is obviously suffering from some sort of addiction. If you watch the first season finale, she had to be held up on stage during the ending celebration!
This is kind of lame, but she made a video for Sesame Street called Zoe's Dance Moves and my daughter LOVES it. If you watch that and then compare it to how she behaves now (her slurred speech, inability to string a complete and coherent thought together, etc.) it's kind of scary (and sad).
