Paula Abdul gets replaced on Ugly Betty now! Since Paula left American Idol, she was pursuing many avenues of work. A recurring role on Ugly Betty was at the top of her list. Was as in past tense.
More pictures of Paula after the break…
It seems that Paula’s ego may have gotten the better of her. When Paula was offered the role, she handed over a list of demands herself. From US Magazine:
First, it was American Idol. Now, Paula Abdul has lost her upcoming role on Ugly Betty — to former 3rd Rock From the Sun star Kristen Johnston.
Johnston is replacing the ex-Idol judge in the recurring role of Helen — Mode’s crazy new office temp — after contract negotiations fell through, reportedly due to her long list of demands. (Entertainment Weekly, which first reported the news, says she wanted a private jet.)
A private jet for what? Shuttle to and from filming? These rumors sound outlandish, but I guess crazier things have happened. Good luck to Paula on finding a role that suits her.
