Kara DioGuardi

AMERICAN IDOL JUDGE AND FORMER CONTESTANT EXCHANGED MORE THAN GLANCES

American Idol is a hotbed of gossip since Ellen Degeneres was abruptly hired to replace Paula Abdul. When noteworthy former contestant Constantine Maroulis and Idol judge Kara DioGuardi spotted each other across the catwalk at a New York fashion show, they just HAD to have a chat. Constantine was very curious about Kara’s take on the situation, but Kara seemed far more interested in texting- or is she taking his phone number?

THE SEXIST PRESS IS PICKING ON PAULA ABDUL

Paula Abdul has every right to resent the fact that journalists are SO interested in HER reaction to the new American Idol judge Kara DioGuardi. As soon as the new judge was announced, the press jumped on Paula and ONLY Paula for her response. Are they trying to plant the seed that Paula might be replaced? Even the LA Times wrote “Move Over, Paula Abdul.” No one seems to be beating on Simon Cowell’s or Randy Jackson’s door for a comment. It’s an insult to Paula – and ALL women – to assume there would be any jealousy or insecurity on her part. As crazy as Paula is, she is an integral part of the show and viewers get a huge kick out of her. Give Paula a break.
