So nice to see the lighter side os Simon! As much as I can't stand Paula's ranting on Idol....the show just wouldn't be the same without her. ---em's

Simon Cowell not Simon Fuller runs AI. If Cowell wants Paula there, she'll be.

Im glad he has her back and is supportive of her. I really dont think she has something else going on right now so staying on the show will be good for her pockets.

I agree, she does look great and I love the red leather jacket. I'm bummed that the Get the Look link posted is for a black leather jacket though.

I always find Paula to be dressed in very ill-fitting clothes. She needs to get the jeans hemmed and in a smaller size. She is a tiny lady!

I think the judge dynamics would suffer if Paula was not on.

I think all this talk about Paula is for publicity for next season.

I agree with you Chelle. They are building the suspense up (whether she stays or doesn't)) for the show. The show wouldn't be the same without her or randy and simon so I do hope she stays.
