Paula Abdul Is Stinking Up the UK

46. I think she said in an interview once that she hit her head on the roof of an airplane while on tour or something. I think she has head/neck problems and is loaded up on meds. What ever it is- something is deffinetly off about her now.

47. Look, Paula does take prescription drugs. Pain medication is bound to be one of them. She was fortunate enough to live through a plane crash and besides that ordeal, she has had other things happen to her that cause her back pain. If you've ever lived on a day to day basis with any kind of pain, you would understand that you can't be as active as she is without the medication. If she didn't take the medication, she would be in bed and having to rest. With the medicine she is able to keep working. By the end of the day, she probably has a lot of medicine built up in her system, and yes, I'm sure it keeps her awake, thus the lack of sleep. But her choices are, take the medicine and work - doing what she loves to do - or quit. What would you do if you had a permanent injury? You do what you have to do to live as good a quality of a life as you can when you are in that position. So, give her a break.

She said she had surgery and is pain free. So your theory is wrong.

50. Paula has some mega issues.... besides just being overly high-maint.! Her reality show makes her look worse than I thought. i actually liked her at one point, but her antics have really made me reevaluate my stance. Paula - take a break and get help.

51. I feel guilty, not only have we pawned off Madonna on our english cousins but now Paula...we'll still have to take back Simon Cowell in a few months. If only we could lose Rosie and Al Gore to another country as well....

52. I like Paula, don't know why she gets bashed so often...

Her show on Bravo is really pretty good.

53. I've watched Paula's show and I love it!!!!!

And I feel bad now for jumping on the "pill and alcohol" bandwagon like everyone else. It looks like she loves what she does, and she works hard. If you checked out her show, it would answer some of those lingering questions.

Keep doing your thing Paula!!

54. I think Paula is the closest thing to being the 1st member of the "boys club" that we have in H'wood. Think about it: she was involved in a sex scandal with a younger underling, strongly denied it despite what so many were saying, got away with it, and still kept her job. How many chicks do you know have pulled off such a stunt in H'wood, or anywhere else for that matter?

56. Not since seeing Whitney sitting dazed and alone, in cracked out stupor plunking away at the piano and slurring her way thru a Christmas Carol on "Being Bobby Brown", has TV proved so riveting as "Hey Paula". Paula, sad to say this but you're coming off as even more of whackjob than we suspected (then again, is anyone really that surprised?).........do yourself a favor, get off the pills honey, catch up on your "sleep", practice your speaking in public and hire some PROFESSIONAL PR folks to protect you from yourself.

57. You people shouldn't be so quick to judge. Paula has been through things you probably couldn't even imagine. Despite surgeries and medication, Paula's RSD pain can come and go at any time. She recently said her neck pain is bad and she looses a lot of sleep because of it. I can't be bothered to go further into it. But seriously, you all should let her be.

58. I don't believe she had a boob job. What do you even base that on?
And having to take pills for RSD does not mean she has an addiction.

59. Why such a mean, vicious tone to this? Who wrote this? How do you sleep at night?
