BRING PAULA BACK! Seriously, doesnt the fact that of Idols publicity, Paula gets 90 % and the random guests 10 % tell FOX something? randy kara and even Simon are simply just footnotes in these stories. Idol NEEDS Paula. 2 of the judges are on Twitter- Paula and Randy. hmm who has the most? well, Paula has over 1 million and Randy… less than 400. not 400 000- but 400! and fox keeps RANDY over Paula. they are paying a guy with less than 400 fans more than somebody with over 1 million fans on twitter! ridicolous!

I hope Simon says that there is no replacement. It’s Paula, or nobody. Simon can definitely work his abundant charm on Fox to get them to work out a deal for her return.

yes ,We dont want a replacement we just want paula !which part of that fox dont get ??
why is so hard for fox to bring her back ??
its like they dont even care for what viewers want !!
It’s sad that after 8 years of loyalty to a show you have to see your favorite judge out ,and theres nothing you can do !
idol is like a family for those who have followed them for all these years and see paula’s departure its sad and wrong!! i will support paula no matter what !!
so if paula goes i go 2 !!
NO PAULA , NO IDOL !!!!!!!!!!

We dont want a replacement, we want paula to come back!!! Yes, I am speaking for pretty much ALL Idol fans when i say that! and i mean, if idol doesnt listen to their fans… the fans may just go away. a show is Nothing without Fans and FOX are showing total arrogance and disrespect towards their Fans (viewers). And no, i dont necessarily think millions will tune out from idol in loyalty to Paula (she will be fine even without Idol)- but people will tune Out simply because Idol without Paula is BORING and just not worth tuning in twice a week for.
