...and right outside Paula's home. E!News has been blowing up my text inbox with updates on this story all day. So here is what the public knows so far:
Paula Goodspeed, 30, was a former contestant on "American Idol," for which Paula Abdul is a judge, and has apparently been obsessed with Abdul for the past 17 years.
Goodspeed was found dead in her car outside Abdul's home late last night; the cause of death appears to be an overdose, and sadly this isn't the first attempt Goodspeed made to get Abdul's attention. It was only a few months ago that Goodspeed previously tried to overdose outside the judge's home.
Although Paula Abdul was well aware of Goodspeed's obsession (she has sent threatening letters and packages in the past), she was not at home last night when the incident occurred. However, after being notified this morning, Abdul did say that she was "deeply shocked and saddened."
I have yet to hear anything about the woman's family or friends, but I am sure there were people out there who really cared for her. My heart goes out to them.
Also, I found this audition tape of Paula Goodspeed's "American Idol" audition on E!Online...it's strange to look at this auditions in a new light.
