Paula Abdul Upset Over Simon's Paychecks

October 15, 2008

MSNBC is reporting that American Idol judge Simon Cowell is earning $36 million a year from the wildly popular TV show. They broke that down to about $22,000 for every minute that Simon is on the air.

Now rumors are swirling that Miss Paula Abdul is none too happy with her own paycheck. Paula is supposedly making somewhere in the ballpark of $6 million per year and she obviously feels underpaid.

"Paula knew that Simon was getting paid more, but she never imagined it was this much more. It's ridiculously obvious that she's getting pennies compared to Simon. This could really put her in a bad way.... she has a lot of concerns with feeling appreciated," a friend of Paula said.

Isn't she already in a 'bad way' with her constant on set antics?

She is my favorite. Just saw her profile on wealthy 40 plus personals site """""JSeniorMatch COM"""""" last week. I am wondering what kind of relationship she is looking for on that site.Is she single again now? ?????????????????

Haha it's Simon's show in the first place! He invented it, he pays for the advertising it, he produces it and he probably does loads more! She just shows up and looks pretty!! And anyway, most people would kill for $6 million a year!! It's not like she needs the money anyway!!!! Selfish bitch!

Isn't Simon also involved in other parts of the show? Producing or something? Didn't he think of the show? That would explain his higher paycheck. And let's be honest - people don't tune in to American Idol to see Paula...
