Paula Abdul spoofed Ellen DeGeneres in good humor at the VH1 Divas! Live Concert at the Howard Gilman Ballroom in Brooklyn, New York on Thursday night. Last week, FOX and producers of American Idol announced that the Emmy-winning DeGeneres would replace Paula as a judge on the upcoming season of the ratings juggernaut.
As part of the spot-on parody, Paula sported Ellen’s signature daily uniform of a blazer with trousers and sneakers, before taking the stage to perform medley of her hits during her hosting gig of the music special.
“Why y’all staring at me? Can’t a girl try out a new job?” Paula joked. “All kidding aside, nothing but love Ellen and I wish you the best of luck and congratulations on your new gig.”
Ellen also offered to help Ellen handle the daunting task of sitting next to judge Simon Cowell. “You have to call me if you have any Simon problems because I know him best.”
