Train Wrecks
What Was in Paula's Cup?

Posted Jan 17th 2007 12:00PM by TMZ Staff

Did Paula Abdul have a few -- or several -- to help her get through the endless agony of listening to screeching "American Idol" contestants?

Last week, the "Idol" judge appeared on FOX stations to promote the show, and there was enough slurring, giggling, and wackiness to satisfy affiliates from Alabama to Washington; a condition Paula described as being in her "own little world." Then, last night on the season premiere of "Idol," we noticed that there was plenty of attention paid to Paula and her liquid consumption, and in one exchange with her colleagues, she conspicuously weaved to and fro.

So, was Paula in her own, booze-soaked "little world" again? You decide.

76. She was weaving about a bit the first night, but seemed perfectly normal the 2nd, and has seemed perfectly normal on local interviews.

I have back problems, and if I take a narcotic I get loopy. I stick to non-narcotics unless it's bedtime. Fox should keep a serious rein on her, for her own well-being.

77. Come on folks, lets leave Paula alone. Rosie, once again, makes remarks without finding out if she's on target. She opens her mouth and out comes whatever. Apparently she believes that it is her job to be outrageous. Paula is a big part of the success of American Idol. She's a perfect parnter for this team and we love her.

78. Who the hell cares what Rosie the talentless hack thinks. She needs to climb back under the rock from where she rolled her fat ass out from.

83. I believe Rossie should mind her own business. She should stop trying to make trouble for other people.

84. Oh for crying out loud. Who gives a crap what was in Paula's cup. The real issue here is once again, Rosie the cow is getting off on bashing people. Hey Rosie, let me ask you, what's in your cup? Male hormone treatments? Donald was right. She is such a PIG!

85. Paula is being treated for a medical condition. Neurological medical condition. I also noticed last year that she was having odd behavior. Read up in People magazine about her condition. Larry King interview also.

87. I didn't see any of the interviews Paula has given so I can't comment on that but I did watch every minute of AI and actually I never gave Paula a second look. What am I missing? I thought the show was such a scream; I didn't find Paula looking drunk . Are we just looking for things that are not there?
