X Factor: Paula Told Nicole to Send Home Rachel Crow

THE  X FACTOR: Rachel Crow is eliminated on THE X FACTOR airing Thursday, Dec. 8 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. L-R: Simon Cowell, Rachel Crow and Steve Jones.CR: Ray Mickshaw / FOX.

Ha ha ha…how much do you want to bet X Factor producers are behind this latest TMZ “item”:

“X-Factor” judge Paula Abdul secretly instructed Nicole Scherzinger to vote off Rachel Crow last week … just moments before the earth-shattering elimination — and we have proof.

Paula’s mic was down when Nicole was making her decision — but with a little volume tinkering … you can clearly hear Paula whisper to Nicole, “Just let it go to a deadlock.”

Nicole did just that … a decision that sent Rachel Crow packing — and resulted in a torrent of death threats from angry fans everywhere.

Everyone’s blaming Nicole, but the audio raises the question — is Nicole really at fault for sending Rachel home? So we gotta ask …

Nicole already said she didn’t want to vote. Paula was just telling her the easiest way to go about it. I don’t think Nicole would have voted in any case. So, how is this Paula’s fault exactly?
