“Have you been watching American Idol? They have Simon Cowell and Paula Abdul judgin' the singin. Paula Abdul?! Gettin' Paula Abdul to judge a singin' contest is like gettin' Christopher Reeve to judge a dance contest!”
Chris Rock
“I've been in musicals - On Your Toes and Singin' in the Rain - and I'm used to dialogue. Although there are small sections of ballroom dancing in the play, I do not have dancing to fall back on and it is just the two of us on stage.”
Adam Cooper
“Who's judging American Idol? Paula Abdul? Paula Abdul judging a singing contest is like Christopher Reeve judging a dance contest!”
“Watching Paula, she reminds me a lot of myself. Very aggressive, shoots for the pins, and her putts go in with a lot of speed — I never left anything short,”
Nancy Lopez
“They may have turned this up, whether you had the Paula Jones case or not. But again maybe not, but again that's like if a frog had side pockets he'd probably wear a handgun.”
Dan Rather
“I find Paula patronizing. It's as simple as that. Paula is more damaging than I am to these contestants because a lot of people just shouldn't be singing for a living.”
Simon Cowell
“You'd say Richard Gere, Paula.”
