Now that Paul Abdul has taken her crazy train onto greener pastures, that judge they brought on last season is coming forward to say that she had no part in having Paula Abdul fired. Actually, she didn't really have much of a part in anything, considering that no one really listens to the judges anyways.

DioGuardi shot down speculation that she was hired last season as an insurance policy against Abdul in case she leaves.

"The way I'm understanding it is that it was her choice to leave," DioGuardi said of Abdul. "I never was here to replace her. It would be impossible to replace Paula Abdul. She's an incredible talent. She is somebody who helped make the show as big as it is. How could you ever replace that?"

"If anything, she was really somebody who helped me because it was awkward at times being the fourth person," she added. (Source)

Well of course it's not your fault she quit. Obviously, it's the little people who live inside her head who tell her to do things when she mixes her down-down pills with her happy juice. It's like Mama always said: Xanax with liquor, never been sicker. Xanax with beer, the tiny people in your head start telling you to burn things.
