There has been a lot of media coverage about Paula Abdul’s contract negotiations for the next season of American Idol. She’s even Tweeting about how no deal has been reached. I suspect that there will be a last minute, hail Mary type deal which will ensure at least one more year of Paula “I Swear There’s Just Water In My Product Placement Coca-Cola Glass” Abdul. But if it doesn’t pan out the way I and millions of others hope that it will, I think Jimmy Kimmel has a brilliant idea.
On the opening monologue of last night’s show, Kimmel proposed a new game show vehicle for Paula, called What the Fuck is Paula Abdul Talking About? It was an idea that started out as a joke, but I would actually totally watch that. Paula, if the money is there, I say “Go for it!”
Stay tuned to the end of the clip, where Ryan Seacrest briefly appears with a seemingly afro’d child on a spoof promo for Are you Tanner Than A 5th Grader. Offensive?
Hilarious! All of it.
