American Idol: Fans Support Paula Abdul, But Would 'Idol' Go On?

The clock is winding down to the judges' round of "American Idol" auditions -- next month, the gates will be opened for a new batch of hopefuls.

If paula would be off 'Idol' there would be no 'Idol' it would just be simon, randy, and kara and who was kara, NOBODY!!!! might as well kick her off while your at it. no one cares anymore. Idol would lose all it's veiwers and voters. might as well cancel the whole show.

They need to keep Paula and Simon, for sure. Doesn't really matter to me about the other two, as long as Paula & Simon are there. KEEP PAULA!!!

As much as I like Paula as a person, I don't think her absence from Idol would make a big difference--sorry! Her charm has really started to fade. Personally speaking, I think the show should lose Randy, Kara, & Ryan Seacrest. Keep Simon, whose critique is the only one that MAKES sense, and start over from there!

[Cheri]

Keep Paula. I love Simon and Paula battling with each other. Simon, Randy and Paula are Idol. Dump Kara.

Paula has been working for peanuts for 8 years. It is about time she made up for that. She deserves $20,000,000. I bet Simon sees that she gets it, and Paula will be back. If not, Simon will walk next year.

I agree with Cheri.

[stevie]

i think paula should stay ! there will be no more saula and ratings will go down the toliet! fow will really lose if they let this amazing women ! go do you want dis to happen ??

[stevie]

and becoz if she walks then simon will go and then the rest so i dont think they will want to lose all there judges over this !

[Ann]

Without Paula, there will be no Idol.

If Paula isn't back next season idol is going to lose ALOT of viewers (including myself) Paula is the reason idol is a success. As Syesha said 'No Paula=No idol.'
