“Arsenio reached out to Paula because he thought she needed a friend to talk to, someone she could relate to. Arsenio knows what it’s like to leave a hit TV show. One phone call led to another, and the next thing you know, they were making a date,” a tipster tattles in the Nov. 16 issue of The National Enquirer.

“This could be the perfect situation for the two of them. Paula and Arsenio know each other inside and out and if anyone knows what Paula is going through, it’s Arsenio.”

“Paula is secretly launching a new business, designing duds for classy canines. She has already met with major pet store buyers who are straining at the leash to handle her designs,” says a source close to the former pop star.

Crystal-studded collars and leashes, T-shirts, sweaters, and shoes are a few of the offerings being designed for possible inclusion in the line, The Enquirer claims. Paula is so convinced the idea will be a hit, she wants her own pets to star in the ad campaign.

“Paula has pledged that her own five pooches will model for all TV and print ads.”

It’s back to the unemployment line for Paula. The return of Divas Live! won’t mark the beginning of a beautiful partnership between VH1 and former American Idol host Paula Abdul.

The notoriously emotional Paula proved to be a “major pain” who caused “chaos on the set” of rehearsals for her gig as host of the Sept. 17 Divas concert special live from Brooklyn, NY, a chatty network source revealed in the Oct. 5 issue of GLOBE.

“Paula freaked out and started bawling over one of the pretaped skits she didn’t like,” the VH1 snitch complained to GLOBE’s “Loosch Lips Column” on Thursday. “She insisted it be entirely reworked, then demanded numerous last minute changes to her big dance number as well.”

Guess we won’t be seeing Paula as the host of Charm School!

Paula Abdul Joining “The X-Factor”

Tagged as: Paula Abdul, Popular Culture

Now that the judge’s chair she occupied for eight seasons of American Idol is officially warming the buns of comedienne Ellen DeGeneres, Paula Abdul needs a new full-time gig more than ever — and old pal Simon Cowell could have the perfect plan to get Paula working again.

According to a new report, the caustic Cowell is lobbying to have the “Forever Your Girl” star follow him across the pond to join The X-Factor, the British reality series that made an international singing sensation out of songbird Leona Lewis.

“They’re not sure how she’ll be used yet. She might mentor the contestants during the final live shows and teach them the importance of stage presence,” a television industry tipster blabbed in the Sept. 21 edition of Star.

Paula guest judged the UK series for one episode in 2006. In addition to The X-Factor gig, Paula — a former Laker Girl — is in discussions to produce her own cheerleader-themed live show on the Las Vegas strip.
