Welcome to Hollywood -- Abdul Threatens 'Idol'

46. When I live in Southern California, we had an expression.... "Only in LA...." in this case I would say "Only in LA do you complain about a $2.5 million salary where you only have to work six months a year!" What a greedy bitch!

47. Four judges are more than enough! Being articulate is a big requirement to be a judge. Paula fumbles her lines too many times during the season. She says the most inane things and always in conflict with Simon, who is the heart and soul of the show.

With her departure, maybe we could get more performance time for the contestants.

48. Why do the two white gay guys get multi-million dollar contracts, and the two people in protected classes get peanuts? Girl, you need to drive to the nearest Civil Rights Office to file a petition. If that "WISE LATINA" doesn't get her job on the Supreme Court, you need to sign a retainer with her to sue their a$$es! JUST SAYIN...

49. Ryan Seacrest is the busiest man in entertainment. I don't think people realize that he is the new Johnny Carson/Dick Clark, and he will be around for at least half a century, so deal with it ...

50. Paula don't let the door hit you in the a*s on your way out.

51. Paula should make as much as Ryan Seacrest but how do you complain about making 2.5 million dollars a year? I'd be doing back-flips if I could make efven half of that.

52. Who gives a fluck?

Let's look at the logic here;

The economy is in the crapper. People are scraping by to make ends meet. People are losing their jobs, health insurance and homes.........(are we formulating a visual here yet folks?)............errum....ok......let me paint this picture a bit more clear...

Who in their right mind pays this kind of money to people (mind you average people just like anyone else) that the only thing that is different is that these "people" who wipe their butts and put their shoes on just like everyone else......is paid millions, multi millions to stand in front of a camera?

bleah.....it's not even worth trying to explain. Let these people get a dose of reality. Fluck sakes! Ryan Seacrest brings down that much dough? He's a flucking moron with an entourage of equal morons. For all of the people like Tom Cruise, (you add to the list) Angelina, Brad, who ever what ever that makes a movie; do you realize they are paid to portray the lives of everyday people???? Look at the irony!

This industry is way out of control just like sports. And it sucks mondo glick. A bunch of dillusional people wacked out living in a dillusional world and being paid stupid money for it.

Where do I sign up?? I want a ticket to ride the idiot train for a while.

Btw, anyone know what agent hit speed dial to sign their client for the Michael Jackson movie. Yea, this is the world we live in. Death, drugs, overkill and you've got a movie of the week!

American culture at it's best!

53. I hope she does go. If I had the capability, I would fast forward thru all of her comments. She makes me sick. I hate to hear all of her nonsense about the contestants. It is always the same old crap and she has no respect as a judge. Most of the time she is so high, she can't even talk. Go Paula Go.......

54. The real story line here....new manager....going for the the last money grab Paula will ever have....which means what he makes off this commission will represent the bulk of what he makes off of Paula. Without the show Paula not only doesn't make money she becomes a huge pain in the a_s bugging him about getting work. So this will go away, Paula will be on the show, and the manager will get what he gets at the end of the day. DON'T GET CAUGHT UP IN THE POSTERING!!!!

55. I am hurt and distressed by all of your comments.

I am a brilliant star the likes that no one has seen in Hollywood history.

I have bills to pay. Puppies to feed. Cars to buy. Homes to buy. Jewelry and coture clothing.....the bare necessities of life!

I barely scrape by as it is with a mere 1.5 million a year!

I can barely pay for my weekly salon and spa rituals.

I will walk out and you will all miss me because no one is standing in line to replace me.

I am Paula Ab'do'all.

I am irreplaceable.

I am worth more.

I want more.

I need more.

I, I, I, did I say I?

56. people say that if Paula leaves the show that they wont watch anymore- why?

Paula is a hot mess and has been so for years, so if its time for her to go ...........
All the judges are replacable ( yes that means simon too ) Maybe AI would do an overhaul on the show, it really hasnt changed since it began 400 hundred years ago.

So you think you can dance have made changes that make it interesting an fun to watch, Also the dancers show respect to the judges and really listen to their comments, it shows by the way the dancers improve week to week.

AI have no respect for the judges, they make rude comments and dont listen- which shows as they get more anoing as the weeks go on. Frankly at the finale I hardly care anymore, the winner - BY TALENT ALONE- should have been Adam but they play it safe with Kris , no compition for ANYONE, and that would be the reason if i stopped watching the show, not getting rid of Paula.

Im tired.

OK,Im done.........

59. Don't let the door hit your a** on the way out, Paula! Nobody feels sad for someone making $2.5 million dollars for sitting on their a** all day judging "talent".

60. Does anyone even care about this tired show anymore? When you've seen one season, you've seen them all. And half of the people that win the show are nobodys again within a year.
