Paula Abdul Is The New Ed McMahon (Maybe)
Ever since the new season of American Idol started, it just hasn't been the same for me without the incoherent ramblings from the heavily medicated Vicodin angel known as Paula Abdul. Well, there's a good chance that Paula Abdul will be slobbering all over a stage soon!
Michael Ausiello at EW is saying that Paula is in talks with ABC to host and possibly judge a new reboot of Star Search. This is fitting since Paula Abdul spends most of her days trying to catch the imaginary stars that appear around her after she's had a couple of "sweet teas."
Last summer, ABC tried to lure Paula by leaving a trail of ludes from her house to the Dancing with the Stars studio, but she didn't fall for it then. ABC is hoping that the Star Search job is good enough to get Paula to their corner. The new Star Search is supposed to premiere this Summer and it will probably die a fast death a week later.
Paula Abdul's craziness aside, I know the reboot of Star Search sounds like the second coming of the Hindenburg, but I just have one word for you: SPOKESMODELS! That shit was like a Livelinks commercial, a Barbizon fashion show, a G-rated Playboy video and a Glamour Shots photo shoot rolled into one! We need more of this in our lives:
• 
Ed , so creepy!
She is pretty and what struck me most is this was BEFORE the era of implants. And her looks were real not botox/fillers, etc. I swear the 70s/80s/ magazines you see are so quaint now. I think the models used to look so much better now it's all airbrush/plastic.
American Idol sucks without Paula. I want her back on TV.
I bet Ed used to get a little fucky fucky times with those spokesmodels back in the day!
And yes, I used to watch and I am NOT ashamed.
I am NOT!

Modeling back in the day was so camp and glamorous... Gotta love the 80's.
OMG at 1:27 - Lucite HEELS!
Is everyone aware that the red carpet is all hot fashion from the 80s? *sigh* Modeling used to look so easy! Like what? FIVE hos or something...3? As opposed to 50,000 that you're up against now or whateer...

LOL! I totally forgot about the spokesmodels. Ha! I wonder why Ed never hosted AI - that would have made a lot of sense. I may have even watched it then.

I thought I would be the only one to remember Bobbi Brown. I had no idea she was in the Warrant video, though!
Tigerlilly> How about that "I'm walking on sunshine" girl from Intervention?
Spokesmodels!
I LIVE MK!
LOVED the Power Station I was an extra on "Miami Vice" when PS and Eartha Kitt were the guest stars LOL..
Oh how I miss this trash Star Search ... Like auditions for "Showgirls"

Those bangs need a hedge-trimmer.
I was always so jealous of those model girls. I wanted to hold a rose next to my face and smile wistfully for the camera.
This guy should try out for Star Search:

Aimee' not Aimee. you can barely see the accent mark when they flash her name.
Oh yes. American Idol's missing je ne se quoi this season is that there pharmaceutical spark -- erm, glaze -- in Paula's eyes <3
The 'new' Star Search should eliminate the modeling competition. Shows like America's Next Top Model killed modeling. Moreover, there have been quite a few modeling shows that have come and gone. It seems like almost any girl can be a model now a days.
The days of the supermodels are gone. Janice Dickenson is all the proof you need.
I googled Aimee's name, wondering if she won or actually modeled professionally. The info. available states she is a lawyer.
Wow, that was uncomfortable to watch...and I'm pretty sure that girl's name is Aim-ee, not Ah-may or whatever Ed was calling her...

And Paula Abdul looks fucked up in this picture like she always does, fucked up 24/7. Lol.
Ok avatars of all kinds don't usually bother me but

Pedobear alert.
I know, I remember the Spokesmodel Bobbi Brown, Ms Cherry Pie as someone mentioned.

Was anyone else really creeped out by Ed? Ewwwww! "And grow up you did!"...Yuck!
OMG TOTAL FLASHBACK!!!! LOVE IT!!!
Ahhaha jetsam_jane,
Yes, that did strike me as painfully tragic as well, but also hilarious, and I doubt her engineering career was looking to skyrocket.
mike,
I think only people with bad local accents would pronounce Concord, NH that way. I've always heard any of the Concords said the proper way.

Paula's hair reminds me of those fancy Vidal Sasson haircuts from the late '70s...
*****************************************
Really? It reminds me of the Flow-Bee informercials in the '90's and all the reasons not to buy one...Who Flow-Bee'd that mess????

Sorry, Roger, you are tiger now...
I want to hear Paula tell someone they are "being judged on their ability to speak effectively"
Lucite Heels worn with an Yves St. Laurent bathing suit. Too awesome.

I loved his shampoo and conditioner, they smelled just like almond oil!

I can't believe Michael K missed an opportunity to post a clip of the most famous Star Search model Bobbie Brown. You know, Ms. Cherry Pie.
I do miss Paula on AI...I hate hate stuttering Ellen.
Ahhh...the time when Shitters could really sing:

@Life: Aimee is pronounced the same as Amy. Aimee is the French spelling for Amy,
My Mom once tried to sign me up for modeling classes with Barbizon. Obviously she thought I was going to be 5'10" like Cindy Crawford, not 4'11".

Ugh@ that clip
Very pretty girl, but
a) for Concord, NC, you pronounce both syllables fully. Ed pronounced it like Concord, NH, with a clipped second syllable
b) that very pretty girl should have punched Ed in the face when he made that "and grow up you did..." comment
btw isn't AIMEE the same thing as AMY???
wtf ed mcmahon (rip), nobody could tell the old man how to pronounce that shit???
When I read the headline, I just assumed Paula was losing her house or something.
wait, the poor girl was studying ENGINEERING and her mom pushed her to compete in the SPOKESMODEL SECTION OF STAR SEARCH?
jesus.
is this painfully tragic to anyone else?
I will only watch it if Paula is one of a panel of junkies judging talent. That would be AWESOME...I nominate: Courtney Love, Dreamboat Petey, the Crackie of Camden, Ronnie Wood, and....oh I'll let you whores decide...Who's the final junkie jurist????

Sorry, Roger, you are tiger now...
I couldn't possibly care less where Paula Abdul winds up. She has gotten way more money and attention than her "talent" deserves.
I used to LOVE Star Search!!!!!!!!
