Straight Up: Paula Abdul
Departs AMERICAN IDOL!!

I am – Hercules!!




Fox sources confirm Paula Abdul’s twittering: while Simon, Randy and Kara will be back as judges on television’s top-rated series' next, ninth season, Paula will not.

Presumably her departure is precipitated by a salary dispute.

Find all of EW’s story on the matter here.
