Paula Abdul will officially not be back on American Idol this year, and that pleases me mostly because I'm not into spazzy tards, but also because she never really contributed anything beyond pretending people who should be shot can sing. Anyway, here's the story according to TMZ:
As we already reported, we're told Paula was pulling in somewhere between $2 and $3 million a year and she wanted more. Our sources say "A.I." made her an offer that she didn't like at all. Paula countered but producers didn't want to pay that much, so they countered with another offer.
Rather than responding to the second offer, Paula shocked everyone by tweeting her goodbye. The weirdest thing ... "A.I." took the tweet seriously and responded with an official sayonara.
We're told Paula made it especially difficult during the negotiations because she changed management twice.

It's nice to see that Paula acted completely professional in this matter...by logging into a social networking site with a bird as a logo and quitting. That's how you're supposed to kill multi-million dollar negotiations, right?
