American Idol: Paula Abdul's Stalker Kills Self Outside of Paula's Home

American Idol: Paula Abdul's Stalker Kills Self Outside of Paula's Home





A woman was found dead in her car outside of Paula Abdul's house late last night, the result of an apparent drug overdose/suicide.  The woman, who some are identifying as Paula Goodspeed, is thought to have been a stalker of Paula Abdul.  The car she was found in, just mere feet from Abdul's Los Angeles property, had a Abdul-themed vanity license plate, and pictures of Abdul inside the car.  Goodspeed previously auditioned for American Idol, and was even featured on an episode, though she was harshly criticized and sent away by the judges.  Abdul and her people have known about the stalker for years, and have had numerous, albeit peaceful, run-ins with her.
Though the Los Angeles police won't release the name of the woman who was found dead, Abdul and her staff have been made aware of the identity, and have said that they've known about this woman for years.  Still, this remains shocking and horrifying news that can't be easy for Abdul, especially as the new season of American Idol rapidly approaches.
