Paula Abdul announced not returning to American Idol

Tweet

After months of negotiations and disappointment, no more funny judging from Paula Abdul as she announced on her Twitter page that she won’t be returning for the new season of American Idol (season 9).

She tweeted, "With sadness in my heart, I’ve decided not to return to #IDOL. I’ll miss nurturing all the new talent, but most of all..

I’ll miss nurturing all the new talent,but most of all being a part of a show that I helped from day1become an international phenomenon.

What I want to say most, is how much I appreciate the undying support and enormous love that you have showered upon me

It truly has been breathtaking, especially over the past month

I do without any doubt have the BEST fans in the entire world and I love you all"

Paula Abdul failed to close a better deal with AI management and it seems her threat of having a new show that will compete with American Idol has no effect.

What's next for Paula Abdul?
