IDK if anyone else cares, but Paula Abdul is like my crazy aunt and if Kara comes back and not her I will be royally PO'D
Los Angeles Times.
"She's not a happy camper as a result of what's going on. She's hurt. She's angry,"
David, who said that he became Paula's manager just weeks ago, at the end of June, added that he has yet to receive a proposal for a new contract for Paula.
"I find it under these circumstances particularly unusual; I think unnecessarily hurtful," he said. "I find it kind of unconscionable and certainly rude and disrespectful that they haven't stepped up and said what they want to do."
The result of the stalled negotiations, David said, is that Paula is unlikely to be back on the show she's judged for eight previous seasons.
"Very sadly, it does not appear that she's going to be back on 'Idol,'" he said.
David's remarks come on the heels of the news of show host Ryan Seacrest's new contract, a reported $45 million, three-year deal that makes him the highest-paid reality host on television.
Judge Simon Cowell is also in negotiations to renew his contract, while third judge Randy Jackson is attached to the show through 2011.
Auditions for Season 9 begin on August 6, with the show set to return in January.
