"paula abdul" news and stories

And that headline is your first answer in this quiz over at AOL Food (via The Smoking Gun). Match the contract demand with the singer that makes the demand on their contract.

All the same names seem to pop up: Britney, Christina, Mariah, Celine, Madonna, and Paula Abdul. I didn't realize that Abdul even toured anymore, but she actually seems to have some reasonable demands when it comes to dressing room food. One diva demands NO TOMATO, APPLE, OR GRAPE JUICES. And another wants only Diet Coke - IN CANS!

For the record, I only got 3 out of 10. I guess I don't know my divas.

Yes, you read that title correctly. In case you were blissfully unaware like I was, Just Born, the makers of Marshmallow Peeps, hold a 'Celebrity Survey' every year. Apparently they conduct this survey "to keep up with today's trends and cultures." Maybe it's just me, but I can't recall ever seeing anything other than various shapes and colors of Peeps emerging from their factories depending on the season. If their products have ever actually reflected trends and cultures, it is news to me.

Now don't get me wrong, I love the little marshmallow treats as much as the next person - but there are limits. Though I'm fairly certain this one can simply be filed under "for those that have way too much time on their hands," in the spirit of Easter (or maybe just because it is Friday) I'll let you in on the results after the jump. I apologize in advance.

I heard that fans of American Idol host voting parties after the show airs each week. All their friends and other people from their neighborhoods come over and everyone swamps the phone lines. I have certainly heard of multiple parties in the LA area to support Katherine McPhee, and I have no doubt that similar parties happen for Taylor and Elliot, as well. What better thing to serve at a voting party than American Idol cupcakes? Each of these chocolate-mint cupcakes is adorned with a detailed likeness of an Idol contestant or judge, though Paula, with X's for eyes, is not looking too happy on hers. My favorite is the Simon cupcake, but I would certainly eat any of them, if offered!
