I agree, she looks exquisite in this gown!
Paula looked beautiful on result show finale night....
I love Paula, her talent and her kindness, but her behavior has been going steadily downhill on Idol the past couple seasons....rambling and slurring her words. I often wonder WHY her family and friends aren't stepping in to help her.......Or, don't the doctors who medicate her hear all the media about her behavior and rethink refilling her meds....
I'm not trying to be cruel, for I had a close relative that became addicted to prescribed medication, and, believe me, it was terrible......
My father, who has always be "macho" when it came to health concerns is on pain meds now for his back, and he HATES it....they do make you incorherent and moody....he has even hallucinated taking them. Unfortunately, he is waiting for surgery (thanks HMO), and his condition is unbearable without them, so he has no choice at the moment.
Paula, on the other hand.....I know she had a back injury awhile back (her words on Larry King), but they don't keep you on meds the rest of your life for heavens sake....Well, certainly not the dose she appears to be taking.
I feel sorry for her.....

I've seen the clip and the excuses they are making don't wash. She's definitely on something in it. If she did 20 interviews this was obviously the ONE she did AFTER dosing.Paula Abdul Interview Raises Eyebrows

NEW YORK — A video of an interview with Paula Abdul appears to show the "American Idol" judge slurring her words and rocking back and forth in her seat, but her publicist says any oddities in the tape were due to technical difficulties.
The video clip, which has wound up on the file-sharing Web site {FORT parser won't allow name of the site}, is of a morning-show interview Abdul did Thursday via satellite from New York with the local FOX affiliate in Seattle.
The very upbeat Abdul seems to be slurring her words during much of the segment, and at times she is moving around so much in her chair that she almost swivels right out of the shot.

Her publicist, Jeff Ballard, told FOXNews.com that the buzz surrounding the clip, which is titled "Paula Abdul — What is she smokin'???" on YouTube, is "much ado about nothing."
"It was a technical problem," he said. "They dropped the sound not once but twice. She's in a little room by herself and could hear people shouting in her mike. She did 20 of those interviews without incident. It was simply a matter of Seattle screwing up."
He denied that Abdul's speech was impaired during the interview.
"She was not slurring her words," said Ballard.
"American Idol," which premieres Tuesday night on FOX, has distanced itself from the incident. A spokeswoman for the popular singing-competition reality show referred all inquiries about Abdul's behavior in the interview to Ballard.
In other "Idol" news, when asked about Bob Dylan's wish to join him as a judge on the series, Simon Cowell told British paper The Guardian, "Bob Dylan bores me to tears.
"I don't believe the Bob Dylans of this world would make 'American Idol' a better show," he told the newspaper.
Krom, I have seen that particular video and I couldn't find a link to the actual TV station that had the interview with Paula so I couldn't figure out a way to post it on here but I'm glad you posted that news article!
I have to agree with you that Paula was smoking something, drinking something
or all of the above!!!
