Paula Abdul Opens Up About Pain Killer Addiction
Paula Abdul is opening up about her pain killer addiction in an upcoming magazine article according to CNN.com. To anyone who’s watched Paula Abdul on television working as a judge on American Idol it’s likely not a big surprise to find out that she was suffering from some sort of addiction problem.
Last year on American Idol Paul Abdul made headlines several times for her wacky comments and bizarre behavior and was even caught on video tape slurring her words in one interview that ended up on the video sharing site You Tube.
46-year-old Paula Abdul is in chronic pain due to a series of unfortunate accidents. Paula’s chronic injuries began at the young age of 17 when she was badly injured in a Cheerleading accident. The star has sought out different types of treatments to deal with the severe pain and to be able to function in her day to day life, it’s a very sad situation.
According to Abdul she has conquered her addiction since spending time in a rehab center in the fall of 2008. But I can’t help but notice that in 2009 she still seems a bit shaky when trying to give her opinion on an American Idol performance. Perhaps it’s due to the actual pain she is in.
Paula Abdul has had to face more than just chronic pain and pain killer addiction, recently she also had to deal with the unstable stalker, Paula Goodspeed who unsuccessfully auditioned on American Idol in season 5 of the show. Goodspeed ended up taking her own life outside of Paula Abdul’s home in November 2008.
As for her love life, Paula Addul was dating J.T. Torregiani up until their break-up in June 2008, and as far as I know Paula is still single and searching for the right man.
