"Did anyone see the ABC special on American Idol"
Although I believe Corey Clark's story about what happened between him and Paula, that they had an affair and that she helped him with song selection, fasion, etc., I do find the timing of the release of this information very suspect since he is trying to sell a book deal and a new CD. I think he is trash.

I question ABC spending a whole hour during the May sweeps ratings period on this allegation, especially since there was nothing that was detrimental to the producers of AI or the show itself.

1. "RE: Did anyone see the ABC special on American Idol"
I watched it, and I really thought it was a bunch of boloney when I first heard it, and I'm usually very skeptical when it comes to these one-sided news-type programs, but after watching I do believe he is telling the truth.

The whole "Foolish Heart" saga and her voice on his answering machine is what did it for me. His parents also seem credible.

I *squirmed* at his stupid song about her, though. It's just stupid, stupid, stupid. Blah! And yes, he's doing this for publicity, and it's working.

Paula came off looking pretty foolish.


The world is my litterbox.

It takes a lot to look even more foolish than Paula does each week, but he managed it.

I do too. Sad but true. There's a newspaper in Aspen, CO that is co-owned by an acquaintance of mine. Its motto is: "If you don't want it printed, don't let it happen."

Paula must have been heady with the newness of AI at that time and felt she was invincible. It's hard to resist these little cuties, and she was obviously smitten. No one can blame her for that. We all have our crushes. (Not to excuse her.) If Corey had gone further or actually won, this would be very serious.

6. "paula vs corey"
LAST EDITED ON 05-05-05 AT 05:03 AM (EST)

I must say that I believe some of the things corey had to say, I'm a little perplexed as to why he would save every little thing as far as notes,phone records,a medicine bottle,taping phone conversations, at that time(what 22yr old does that for no reason)?? smells like a set up... I think after he got kicked off the show because of his criminal record, that he failed to divulge, paula had no choice but to disassociate herself from him and that p!ssed him off, more or less!! I guess he thought paula should have saved him from that too??? I think if paula really wanted to have a relationship with corey she would have let him know that, but she didn't and I'm suspicious of corey now doing this!!

Doesn't smell like a set up at all. If someone isn't used to meeting/greeting people that are popular tend to want to keep things that remind them of the person. If Paula gave me a bottle with her name on it I would keep it too! Can you honestly say that if someone that is a star gave you something with their name on it you would not keep it?

I don't think it's unsual for him to have kept the phone numbers and messages. Whenever I meet a celebrity, if I walk away with any memento, I keep it. If a celebrity called me and left a message, I'd keep the message as long as possible. It's not everyday that a basic 22 year old receives the star treatment from a real celebrity so it's not unusal to me.

He didn't even talk to her.

7. "Some Show Info"
There was no actual evidence of an affair other than his words and his lame song, BUT
if you ignore the lame friends of his, and the "shocked contestants from his year" there were three things that I think showed that there was at least an "improper relationship"
1) Phone records - Although we could not see the details on the show, ABC says that the records show calls he made from his parents and grandfathers house on Jan 1, 2003 for over an hour and 2 long calls 2 days later among a bunch of other calls to Paula Abdul
2) Cough Medicine - a bottle of prescription (Codeine even!) cough syrup with her name on it that he says she gave him for a sore throat - It had a BelAir pharmacy on it, where her house is
3) The Voicemail - They play a vm (sounds like her) that says "Hi,its Paula, call me back. Listen, if the press is trying to talk to you, you say absolutely nothing, thats all you do...These people are crazy, I don't know, I don't know what its regarding, but somethings going on. Okay, I hope you're doing well". Supposedly from a few weeks ago, just after the story started to break that he was going to "tell-all". So...
Yes, he is in a shameless bid for publicity. It is working. Maybe not the kind of publicity he wants, but then again, he beat up his sister, so what do you want?
Yes, most of the special is worthless
But I also have to say, yes, I believe Paula was a naughty Laker Girl.

(Leaders - my apologies if this is better for the contestant/Judges forum, but I looked there and noone was really talking about it, and thought I would reply here rather than start a new thread. Sorry for my newbieness)

11. "RE: Some Show Info"
I agree.

Another thing struck me if I heard it correctly.

Paula gave him a cellphone and a worker at the Sprint store saw them there together getting the phone activated. I wish they wold have interviewed the person.


Also some of the things he said could be verified. Was Paula's house ever featured on Cribs or some other type show? How would he know all the details?

8. "RE: Bummer!"
The way it was put together the circumstantial evidence seemed pretty damning, the phone records, the parents seemed credible that she called their house to talk to Corey and they talked to them. But we only saw one side of the story. There wasn't any info like you would see in a trial to show that the parents are not credible, that there are other explainations for the phone calls, etc.

I assume that after he got kicked off (even if the affair didn't happen) he kept everything that could be used to get him publicity later when he was able to release an album.

That he waited until the release of the albumn to release the phone records, etc. That is a smart move. If you can generate scandal, might as well get your name all over the press at a time when it can do you the most good.

As for ABC airing it being unfair. I don't think they believe it will do anything to AI's ratings (it probably will make more people watch AI during sweeps, but a few extra people with the way the ratings are will not make much difference) but airing it gives them some of AI's audience for a night and all is fair in sweeps.

10. "RE: Did anyone see the ABC special on American Idol"

While is certainly possible they DID have an affair of some sort, there is absolutely no corroboration about a sexual relationship, other than his word. No witnesses to ANY physical contact other than her "touching" his hand?

I think it's more likely he was "hand-picked" by Paula (and/or others) to be the American Idol and they gave him extra coaching and tips.

If it were in a court of law, his "case" for a sexual affair would be thrown out for lack of evidence.

Oh, and the 7 wanna-bes? Anyone who wasn't in his group of 8 or whatever at the time has no gripe. And even tho ones who were? Sucked anyway.



What a waste of my time that hour was.

21. "RE: Did anyone see the ABC special on American Idol"
Glow, save it for when you have a little insomnia. Really, it's an hour of my life I won't get back. Who cares if two of-legal-age, consenting adults may or may not have had a sexual relationship. At the time their alleged relationship began, Paula had no control over whether Corey stayed or not. I do not care whether she helped him with song or clothing choices, as apparently all contestants receive some assistance.

And the song he wrote called "Paula-tics"? Very, very creepy.

I don't know what's worse -- the fact that he's coming forth with these allegations just to promote his yet-unfinished CD and not-yet-accepted-by-any-publisher book proposal, or ABC News for agreeing to air this drek.

I agree with Spidey. There may have not been an affair; there may have been an affair.

It could have been that Paula was trying to help him along and they were emotionally close--I can imagine it would be fun to talk AI with someone who was very involved and get a picture through the contestant's eyes...

There were no love notes; no unbiased reports of their kissing and /or more in public; no romantic vacations/trips...no non competition related gifts...everything she did do that he has proof of you would do for a boy or a girl, a relative...aside from his claim, there is nothing that really delineates a sexual relationship.

Phone calls
Cell phone
Bottle of her cough medicine
Clothing for competition
CD's for competition prep
Description of her house (could any of that be found in research?)

ABC spending an entire hour on it was very cheesy and they have sunk lower in my eyes. I used to like ABC and now they seem desperate.

Also, there was the whole Pat O'Brien thing on tv earlier with Dr. Phil on CBS. An entire hour--for what? I had not even heard that Pat was in rehab or his whole coke usage and other junk--I think it was more harmful than helpful to him. More rating drek. Bleccchhh.

Edited to say I agree with Spidey. And to say if there was a more romantic relationship, usually there would be more gifts or something written... a card, a letter, an email, something, and since he was so careful to keep the things that he did show, seems he would not overlook something more "damning".

I just heard that Paula says she gives gifts to all those that make it to the finals, and that she helps everyone. *shrug*

Is it in the rules that if you're struggling with a song choice you can't ask one of the judges for their opinion? At the final stage the judges don't decided the winners, we do.

Well, that's true Spidey but if you study the clips of Paula's body language and watch her responding every single time in different situations with Corey, it seems as though she did have some special feelings for Corey.

As for the comments made by someone else here, I don't think this was a laid trap. Corey was in over his head (that's obvious from his background and his manner of speaking) and he no doubt cracked and told older adults in his family/life about what was going on. In a court of law (or public), one has to be able to back up one's story with evidence. Some of the evidence was "circumstantial" and "reasonable doubt" but all of it still pointed to something which likely went beyond a simple inappropriate relationship.

For now...it isn't being tried in a court of law. The thing that really got me was the track of all the phone calls. There were more calls than mentioned in an earlier post. There were many many calls and ABC lead us to believe that the number was Paula's (I say this because they never said it had been verified to be her number but I think this would be the loop hole Paula would need to get out of this).

There is no doubt in my mind that Corey had some type of relationship with Paula that other AI peeps did not...whether it was sexual or not I do not know. I wonder if Corey was correct in that Paula has/had three dogs and he knew their names (this would let us know that he really did have access to her house and was at least in a friendship outside the show).

I know that Paris Hilton has a chihuahua named Tinkerbell, but

Corey is the living definition of a Desperate Attention Whore.
I never liked him, and this show wouldn't make me want to buy
his CD, either.

I feel sorry for Paula, but it really is a humiliation of her
own making.


The show could have lasted 10 minutes to cover all the "information".

I know this too but did you know Paula's dogs name? ETA: I never said anything about them sleeping together. I think the information that was presented says they had some type of relationship outside the show. Sexual or non-sexual...I can't say.

I don't feel sorry for Paula at all. She is in the spot light and knows what demands are on her. She should have known better.

Ok...maybe I should have rephrased it as, "I know the name of Paris Hilton's dog, but that doesn't mean I have a relationship with her."

But my point was that I think that naming the dogs isn't exactly privileged info, but I found the other "evidence" convincing enough.

ITA. It was the phone calls that sold me. He was probably embellishing things for effect, but I don't doubt that they had a relationship that was more than "I'll help you with your songs/wardrobe".

If the phone number that all of those calls were associated with was indeed Paula's, then it seems highly unlikely that they'd be talking about the show for 119 minutes here, 151 minutes there, etc. There were a LOT of calls. She called him to tell him not to talk to the press (meaning she had access to a phone number of his more than 2 years after the AI2. season...I'm sure those little phones that AI gives each contestant aren't lifetime service plans. I certainly have never spoken to anyone other than loved ones and my best friends for more than 2 hours at a time. I highly doubt Paula Abdul would be on the phone with someone for 2 hours here and there just to give pointers.

I don't think his knowing the names of the dogs means anything - I'm sure that could easily be found out with just a little bit of effort.

I liked Corey Clark quite a bit during AI2 (he was one of my favorites in terms of vocals), but I watched the show as a skeptic since he certainly had motive to make this stuff up (publicity stunt PLUS disappointment that he was axed by the producers and not by votes).

I'd really like to hear Paula's side, though. I'm sure that'll never happen though.

Paula is supposed to be on E tonight (which comes on right before Survivor, so I will try to remember to tape it) to give her side of it.

Paula getting Corey's number was probably not that hard--she has assistants, they probably only had to call his parents to get his number.

No one has mentioned this yet, but Corey is not very cute--so what did she see in him if there were a romantic relationship?

47. "I loooked up his group from the Season 2 semis"
The guy Patrick who was sitting in the front row of the 7 wanna be's was the third person called over to the stools with Corey and Josh Gracin. When I looked at the group, the only one I remembered was Hadassah, and I think she's mostly bitter because she went in that Semi-final 2 group that included Ruben, Clay AND Kim Locke. going up against the final 3, she probably feels that she was really handicapped to begin with and Corey had the luxury of a different group AND coaching.

As for the special, I definitely believe there was some type of realtionship, but the sexual nature of it is basically "he said/she denies". Soemone mentioned Paula's body language toward Corey as evidence of her feelings....I see Paula as cares about the contestants (exemplified by her highly emotional reaction to Constantine's boot" and sees herself as the nuturer whether she's encouraging them with (often)undeserved praise or giving them a hug.

So, will Corey's book sell? What about his CD?

I was underwhelmed with his singing and ABC already told anything that would be of interest in his book.

And what about Paula? Will she be there next year? This did not bother me so much that I would want to see her gone.

I predict no, neither his book or CD will sell very well.

Didn't Paula say way earlier this season, that this was her last season? She was going to go back to her *giggle* singing "career".

I think he was lying when he said the affair turned sexual. Everytime he said anything about having sex with her, his eyes immediately turned away from the interviewer and he started stammering, classic signs of somebody telling mistruths.

However, I do think that was Paula's voice on his phone though, and that might be her downfall. Any sign of impropriety, and Fox may not have any choice but to let her down.

One thing I can't quite figure out, is how she thought she could accompany him out in public, in stores and in restaurants. Surely she can't be that dumb. Oh, wait, we're talking about Paula Abdul. Never mind

54. "My take"
I watched it this morning after recording it.

I have mixed feelings on the show. YOu have to give props to the Primetime editing team, though, because they know how to edit a one-sided story.

After thinking it through, there seems to be a lot of holes in his story. Granted, it appears as if Paula MAY have stepped over the bounds somewhat, but that can be debated. Since teh public votes someone in or out, can we really say Paula was out of line? I don't know. Its open for debate.

Some of the questions i have after watching it and stewing over it...

Alot of Corey's claims are open for questioning.
* Did they really have a sexual relationship, or is that an embellishment?
* Where was this guy who will state for the record that they both were in the Sprint store? Its one thing to say someone will state something, and then you never see the guy?
* All of the 'witnesses' were friends and family. Hmmm...
* This 'relationship' ended when he was kicked out. Hmm....
* He writes a song called "Paula-tics" for an album. The guy is royally upset at Paula. can you say 'Payback' to the show for kicking him out? AI never promises anything to the losing contestants.

Initially the piece was convincing, but i think that had to do with teh editing. There wasn't a whole lot of substance to warrent an hour long expose. In the end, i think there are a whole lot of holes that need to be questioned. I'm not convinced.

39. "Rules"
I didn't watch the special last night since these tabloid "journalism" things are not my speed, but I was wondering if they offered evidence one way or the other on this issue. IS it against the rules to give contestants tips or make suggestions?

The show already has lots of consultants - music, image, wardrobe, etc. - that they make available to the contestants, and the judges watch rehearsals. It doesn't seem unreasonable to me that help from the judges would be allowed - especially since the judges don't control who moves on in the competition.

Was that ever shown or clarified?

43. "RE: Did anyone see the ABC special on American Idol"
Yes, I question his motives like everyone else. But personally I thought Corey sounded extremely credible. I believe there was a sexual relationship for these reasons:

1) She called him several times in recent weeks begging him not to say anything.
2) He told not only his friends but his parents that there was a sexual relationship going on while it was allegedly happening. I can see lying and bragging to his friends, but his parents? Plus two of his friends saw them together at a club and were convinced there was something going on. So if it's a conspiracy, he's got at least 2 people lying for him.
3) He knew details about Paula's master bedroom but says they always had sex in the guest room. Why would he make that up? If he knew all these details about her bedroom, why wouldn't he just say they slept in there?
4) Paula might give gifts to everyone, but as far as we know only one contestant got her cell phone #, was invited to her house, was given tons of pointers, and had many loooong phone conversations. It just happened to be a cute guy who serenaded her and flirted a little during a song at the auditions. So are we to believe that her only motivations were to "help him out"? Why give him and only him such special treatment?

The bottom line is that there was something improper going on and clearly from her voice mail Paula wanted to keep whatever it was secret. It's obvious that his motivations are publicity (and probably a little bit of revenge too if his heart was broken). I just can't figure out what the fudge Paula was thinking. Like someone else said...going out in public with him? What an airhead.

Oh, and his song about Paula sucked.

Why is it so hard to believe that Corey and Paula had sex? The investigation proved that Paula took a very special interest in Corey, giving him a private cell phone, letting him come to her home waaaay after hours, the 2 hour phone calls, the phone call warning him not to talk to the media...common sense tells me that a woman will not do all of this for a young man if she's not sexually attracted to him. I don't think you need a video tape to prove they had an affair. It's more than obvious they were more than friends.

I don't think people are saying that it's unbelievable that they had sex. They're saying based on what was shown last night, it just hasn't been proven. Personally, I think they did have sex. Not because of something that was shown or said last night, but "Why wouldn't they?" Hell, I would've if I was him. And you best believe if I was a judge this year I'd be tryin to holla at Vonzell or Carrie, fo sho.

I hear what you're saying but I guess I'm wondering what kind of proof do people need or expect? This is not a court of law. It is a TV news magazine investigation. They give you a certain number of "dots" and it's up to the viewer to connect them. I feel bad for Paula and I think she has a big heart but she made a HUGE mistake in crossing the line with a contestant. Sure I wasn't there when the sex happened but I definitely think it happened. When a man and a women conncet like Corey and Paula, sex is the next obvious step. Paula's lawyers have said Corey is a liar and an opportunist but they have yet to come straight out and deny she had sex with the guy.

When it comes to the sex question, you either believe him or you don't. And the only reason someone wouldn't believe him is because they want to give Paula the benefit of the doubt, or they think Corey's a scumbag that shouldn't be trusted. I agree with the latter, but I still think he hit it.

The point I was trying to make was not that he wouldn't lie to his parents about something...heck, we all have. I would like to know why he would find it necessary to lie about THIS to his parents (remember, he told them years ago before he was thinking about writing a book). What would he have to gain by making up that story to them? "Hey Mom, ain't I a stud, I'm having sex with a 38-year-old"? He could make up the craziest stories about wild sex with Paula and his FRIENDS would probably be impressed that he was banging a TV star, but I can't imagine his parents would be. And judging by their reaction, they weren't. So why tell them at all? I have to think he told them because it was simply the truth, it was actually something happening in his life that he wanted to share with them.

Here's a theory:

--Corey lies to AI producers and gets bounced from AI. He is crushed and finds he can not get anywhere with the reputation his ouster has created.

--Corey inventories what he has and what he knows about AI. He has cough syrup, clothes, haircut and phone records that show proof of help he got from one of the judges. Wow! Maybe he can exploit these items!

--Corey then gets some advice from someone to write a book and put out a cd. The story of mere help from Paula won't be enough to catch a big interview but add some sex to it and ...he has no proof of an affair but he can spin what he has to look like one...

LAST EDITED ON 05-05-05 AT 11:21 AM (EST)

I believe that there was an affair.

I believe Corey is an opportunistic slimeball that prolly started planning this the day after he was booted off the show. (Step 1, get someone to record me. Step 2, wait until it’s near finals for an AI season. Step 3, Dateline, 20/20 or Primetime…Dateline, Primetime…hmmm…this is the hard part.)

I believe that he knew exactly what he was doing when he hit on sang to Paula, and was never emotionally invested enough to have his “heart broken.”

I believe whoever advised Corey to wear the orange shirt made a HUGE mistake (or a really funny joke), because it made him look like a convict. (Paula, was that you?)

I believe Corey’s CD will flop. Largely because that song “Paula-tics” is monumentally skeevy.

I believe Paula has horrifying taste in men. I thought Corey was gross & creepy during AI2. I still think Corey’s gross & creepy.

I believe Miss Paula will be invited to quit AI. (Paging Ms. Lauper...)

I believe for every drop of rain that falls, a flower grows.

57. "RE: Did anyone see the ABC special on American Idol"
I don't know if this will shed some light on this subject (for anyone who is even interested), but I’ll attempt anyhow. I happen to know Paula, and have known Paula for several years. While some of the allegations of Corey Clark seem credible (especially after hearing the voice messages), the simple fact about Paula is that she is exactly who you see on TV. Her love for music and the people who create it are so passionate, that I could easily see her being caught up (perhaps too far, or not) with a talented singer … okay, half her age (does anyone bother Demi?). When I tell you this woman LOVES music... I can't stress that enough. Watch her face when each contestant performs... bad or not, she's there in the moment waiting to be dazzled! With that said, know that it is not uncommon for Paula to go way over and above the call of duty to help out struggling artists. Trust me on this one; she once spent two hours on the phone with my friends’ daughter... just to get her to give a good audition on one of those cattle call ordeals in Las Vegas. She didn’t know my friend, nor did she know her daughter! Unfortunately, the girl didn't make the cut... yet Paula called her personally that night to tell her not to give up her dream, but to work harder. And yes, she gave the girl her cell phone number to call her anytime for advice!!! This is FACT. She does this... it's just HER. Eventually, this type of act will come back to haunt you... especially if you're doing it with a young "flirty" ghetto boy (who, by the way, I happen to believe a lot of what he said last night...but how GROSS to do it on the wings of a new album and a potential book!) I think I respect the way William Hung did it more...

Morning, Cappy...



Yes, the description of the house, dogs, where she sleeps instead of her own bedroom, in addition to the phone records, comments of family and friends, confirmation of purchase of private phones by phone vendor, etc. lead me to believe that, skanky boy or no, Corey is telling the truth here. Don't care whom Paula boffs in her spare time, but to help him choose songs and buy him outfits to go further in a competition she is judging is unethical. Step down, Paula.

68. "RE: Did anyone see the ABC special on American Idol"
Helping people is a good thing.

Helping people in a contest in a way that could possibly in anyway alter outcome is generally against the rules for people who are judging the contest.

I can see her as someone who really likes the helping young artists aspect of AI. And that she probably does help young singers whenever she can. (which is a good thing, really0

But you have to make sure in a judging situation that everything is fair and above board. So if she gave everyone her phone number and only some used it would be different than she only gave one person it. (or only her favorites in every year)

I'm sure plenty of other people who are judges in various competitions spend time helping assorted people. But you do not do it for the people in the competitions you are involved with. If someone you helped previously enters the competition, you really have to be careful with it. Either you don't judge, or what went on previously is put all out in the open so everyone knows.

74. "Same help accross the board..."
Yep, all the contestants have wardrobe, hair & makeup assistance available to them, should they choose to use them. (Carrie clearly does not value the wardrobe department's opinion).

Yep, all the contestants have a vocal coach & rehersal accompanist with whom they discuss song choice and arrangements.

These people that help ALL of the contestants DO NOT appear on screen & comment on how each contestant is doing.

All the contestants do not, and should not, have one of the JUDGES tipping them off as to what the OTHER JUDGES will like.

Even though the judges do not make the actual cuts at the 'final 12' stage of the competition, I don't think anyone can deny that the judges comments DO carry weight with the voting public. If you have 2 or 3 of the judges giving really good feedback, your votes are going to go up.

(I'd like to pause here a moment to say Dang!! Clay really did look pretty sad, didn't he?)

>All the contestants do not, and should not, have one of

>JUDGES will like.

And why does it matter what the other judges like? Last week, Simon told Scott to pack his bags. Scott was one of the top three. This week, all of the judges praised Scott for having his best week ever. He got booted.

>Even though the judges do not make the actual cuts at

>anyone can deny that the judges comments DO carry weight
>with the voting public.

Sure, they carry a little tiny bit of weight with a little tiny fraction of voters. But enough to determine who gets booted and who survives? You'll have to prove that one to me, because I don't absolutely DO NOT believe it. If the judges' comments had any real weight, then Anthony would be long gone, and Carrie would have been in the bottom three at least once. And what about the Three Divas in the bottom three last year, when John Stevens was going strong despite the beating he was taking from Simon and Randy?

In short, I don't think the judges can influence the outcome of the voting in the finals. I think the judges could trash Bo every week from now on, and he'd STILL win.

>If you have 2 or 3 of the judges giving really good feedback, your votes
>are going to go up.

Ask Jennifer Hudson about that one. Or Tamyra Gray.

Or ask Scott about his reaction from the judges this week and his outcome. In the past four weeks, Scott only had one bad week with the judges (last week). But he's gone, and A-Fed (whose 'Poison Ivy' this week was dreadful) isn't.

But she's not really judging in its true sense of delivering a decision. She is giving feedback at the end of a performance. (And no one care what she thinks anyway! )

We the American public (or at least those of you who vote) are the real judges.


You know, I find it quite hard to stick up for someone I really don't like very much, but seriously I think whatever Paula may have done is being blown way out of proportion.

Along the lines of help, I didn't see mention of Simon's pretty obvious "Carrie will win" comments early on. I think that type of televised cheerleading could do way more for a contestant then the behind the scenes help that this guy is claiming. Face it, the majority of voters are teen girls. Just seeing the way that my daughter is a Carrie fan regardless of the performances makes me think that Simon did more influencing of the vote then behind the scene help ever would.

I'm not sure that Carrie needed Simon to sew up the tweener girl vote for female performer. The girls into Hillary Duff everything would be totally into Carrie.

Anthony has the tweener girl vote for male performer with the cute boy factor.

Later into the teens they may have different preferences, but the younger teens are gonna go for those two on the cute factor alone no matter what the judges say, IMO.

93. "Can't see the rationale of Paula sleeping Corey"
I honestly find it so hard to believe that Paula would even stoop so low to sleep with a 24 year old jerk with questionable talent named Corey Clark.

Why would she even want to jeopardize her career on American Idol to sleep with some young jerk? I just can't see the rationale in that.

I personally think Corey is a hustler using this scandal to benefit his career in entertainment. What a publicity hog.

Paula may have been involved with Corey in some way probably extending some advice to him to succeed in the show. There isn't anything new to this scenario. This kind of thing happens all the time in society. Networking plays a big part to why some folks are where there are today.

So what, if the other contestants felt that they were cheated out of a spot for a recording contract. Big deal! With pop fluff and classless rap music acts that dominate the music charts today -- they should automatically feel cheated. Americans should even feel more treated that someone like Corey Clark with a shady character and moronic past was ever considered for this AI competition.

I think Paula and Corey became friends through Idol probably a "crush" thing going on but I don't think there was any sex. I am pretty sure that Corey stretched the truth in some way.

Corey Clark is just a pathetic case dying for attention. He needs to grow up!

86. "A Low for ABC News"
This was cheap and (sl)easy for ABC.

1. ABC interviewed a person who is promoting a CD and shopping a book with his tabloid claims.
2. They sought to "substantiate" these claims by interviewing that person's family and friends.
3. They ushered in a group of "harmed" individuals to shame a rival network.
4. And they presented five minutes worth of information in an hour.

It was information that they didn't need to dig for as it was already being packaged by other companies.
The only "investigation" needed was in getting directions to Clark's recording studio.
Couldn't have taken more than a handful of hours to put this "major television event" together.

That said, those five minutes worth of information could well be truthful...damaging really (that was the point, after all).
But ABC can't do this kind of junk journalism with their News department and expect not to get some on themselves.

I left the show uncertain about Mr. Clark, Ms. Abdul, and American Idol.
But I was certain about ABC's News Division.

Certainly disappointed.

I guess orey thought he would ride on the coat tails of Usher with Confessions. I DON'T THINK SO!!!! Maybe some of the story is true but Corey, YOU ARE A NOBODY, WITH YOUR LINDA TRIPP TAPE RECORDING A$$ AND YOUR FREAKY MONICA SAVING THE BLUE DRESS SELF. This just screams scam and it's too bad that he feels he has to sell his soul to the devil to try and make it.

Somebody let Corey know that he wouldn't have won anyway nor would he have had a career following the show. Can we say Tamara Gray and she was really good on the show.

COREY IS A CLASS A JERK!!!!!

Ok, I thought of something today, but I haven't jumped around the thread to see if anyone else had this devious thought.

Sure, Corey could have gone to Paula's house. And he could have slept with her. But suddenly, out of nowhere, I thought:

"I wonder if Corey just used Paula's bathroom and swiped the bottle of cough medicine without her knowledge or consent?"

I think the phone records seem more convincing for an affair, though.


I wouldn't put it past Corey to take a "souvenir".

90. "RE: New devious thought"
BriarRosie, it strikes me as odd that everything Corey produced as evidence was all competition related:

--clothes for the comp
--cough med to sing better at the comp
--cd's to learn songs for the comp
--hair cut for the comp
--phone to talk with Paula/ask q's about the comp

So we can conclude that Paula helped him prepare for the comp. As she helps many others.

There is nothing shown--not an email, not a greeting card or love note, not an intimate gift, that suggests a hot and heavy affair except Corey's claims.

His going on Howard Stern to give supposed details about their alleged sexual affair tells me what I need to know about Corey--what a slimebag he is that will do whatever he can to get ahead.

I saw him on CNN headlines entertainment last night and he said he was not trying to hurt Paula but instead was trying to show what we did not know about AI and to get his credibility/name restored. Hah! He is now backtracking about hurting Paula with what he said. He went on to say that she is now bigger than the show and that is what she wanted, etc., etc. So he reversed himself in the same interview!


He also said ABC did not show a lot of what he told them about AI behind the scenes. Treneyce (however her name is spelled) was there and she was bursting to tell "what was going on behind the scenes" but of course she could not for legal reasons...so it sounds like there is more to come out about AI over time. Trenyce wants very badly to get back at AI.

The way Corey says one thing and then says another tells me he is doing whatever it takes to get publicity--it is about Paula--no it is about AI and what we don't know--no it is about Paula--yuck, Corey.

Thing is, to me the important "charge" is the use of insider information to forward a contestant (e.g., suggesting the old, obscure Journey song be sung to appeal to Randy). The sex is just a disgusting side note.

If Judge A on, say, the Miss America Pagent knew Judge B was a big Conway Twitty fan, and Judge A was boffing a contestant and gave her the score and lyrics to a Conway Twitty tune to be sure she advanced to a final round in the pagent, it would be Wrong. Unethical. Not because of the boffing, but because of the insider info.



Really, I couldn't care less if he's lying or not about the sex.

Except the judges in the Miss America directly determine the winner. The judges in AI don't.

It doesn't matter. In a contest, it's unethical and unfair for someone in a power position, who has inside knowledge and some influence on the outcome, to tilt the board for a particular contestant.

Example:

I am a government employee and my agency is taking bids on a contract. I have no say on choosing the winning bidder. However, my friend at company XYZ wants to bid. If I give them some ideas on what to say in their proposal, then I am Paula Abdul.

Termination. Immediately.

unfortunately for us here in the Philippines, we didnt get a chance to watch it. darn! no station picked it up. but by the sound of your comments...it seemed that the accusations are true. although, the timing of the said expose is really questionable. i wonder if this controversy thing would actually translate into sales? i hope not!

First off - Go Paula! Like to see women get some of that young stuff. Unfortunately you can't have a young buck and a man. You get one or the other. A man would have realized from the jump what she wanted. She wouldn't have had to hint for a month, make a move to still get nothing, and then wait another 2 weeks before she just had to take what she wanted.

A man would have kept the affair to himself. Instead she had to have some of that young stuff and we will never know if it was worth it - in case we ever have to make that kind of decision
Hope she comes out of this okay. Looks like she will.


Hey Corey let's get together. I'll send my 2 kids to a movie while I work with you on how to take a hint. Gesh
