They hound people, kind of paparazzi gone wild. I don't have a problem with Paula. She sure supported David Cook this past season and was right on target about him from the audition right through to the win. I have to love her for that. Ditzy or not, she was right about DC.

Let someone stalk you for YEARS, then kill themselves in front of your home, after an earlier attempt, I'd be pissed too. It's not like Abdul was stalking Goodspeed. Paula got the retraining orders, she did exactly what she was supposed to do legally and it still had a bad end. It just came to a head, she didn't manufacture that part of it that is for sure. Lay some of the blame on Ms. Goodspeed's lap and that of her family who knew she was ill and still don't seem to understand the totality of her illness even after her suicide. Paula might be all things evil and corrupt, but she's not the bad guy by a longshot. Not this time. I say that you use everything you have to do so secure your future. They were playing hardball with her, she played it back and won. Sillyass Paula FTMFW! Hey, Paula was one of the victims in this.

Her emotions -- sympathy, sadness, outrage -- still remain genuine, in my view, even if the timing provided an opportunity to seek a fair salary for herself. A $5 million versus $30 million disparity is too broad, I don't care if he is Simon and she is Paula. They both bring different skill sets and experience to the table. As a performer -- and yes, artist, in my view -- she saw things the other two didn't. Of course, she stumbles, bumbles, and spaces a lot too -- but that goes with the territory. :-) Sorry for the ramble.... Paula’s no idiot, and she never has been.

Her protestations about her "heart going out to the family" which she used on every appearance in the past week or so ring very hollow. Well, I'm so glad she will get the money she thinks she deserves. Maybe this season she could try to actually do her job.

I doubt that she was in anyway upset by the Goodspeed audition, the audition video doesn't show it. She knew the game, and she played the game. Goodspeed's death is just a convenient excuse to up the ante. Cynical? Yeah. Pity, I would have liked to see her sue. As I thought, it’s just a negotiation ploy.

Given that Goodspeed increased her stalking and then killed herself after AI5, I think this is just a perfect storm of issues that have collided.

Martha made a few feeble attempts at getting some juice from her as they were making cookies, but Paula pretty much brushed them aside in a rather incoherent and incomprehensible manner.
