Paula Abdul To Host New Star Search
By Anet Hovhanesian
Paula Abdul is trying to take two steps forward, after moving two steps back. Everyone knew the designated “nice” judge from the hit television series American Idol, who was known for her “coo-coo” moments as well as her sweetness, couldn’t stay away too long.
She’s got a new gig, but it’s on an old show.
According to Entertainment Weekly, the queen of drama and most entertaining member of the “Idol” judges, (Simon was the mean guy, that’s it, and Randy was the one that said “dog” a lot) is in talks to headline an updated version of Star Search. Isn’t it ironic?
There had been a lot of talk regarding Abdul’s future since the one time pop artist and Laker girl left the Fox reality series. There was even a rumor that she would be joining Dancing with the Stars, but that never happened. There was also that strange rumor that she would join Simon Cowell as a judge on the forthcoming US version of his UK monster hit, The X Factor, which is slated to debut on Fox in the fall of 2011.
Paula is the new face of the new Star Search, and Ed McMahon is probably rolling over in his grave.
What do you think about Paula headlining the rebooted version of Star Search? Will you watch?
