But Abdul's spokesman, Jeff Ballard, denied that was under the influence of alcohol or on some kind of medication and said the U.S. performer never drank.

Ballard said the interview was one of the last in a string of question-and-answer sessions she had done over two hours on Thursday ahead of a new season of "American Idol," which debuting next week on the Fox network.

"She was exhausted. This was at the end of three days of press (interviews and appearances), and she has had cameras following her around for a reality TV show too," said Ballard, referring to a new documentary series about the star's life.

"She was sitting in a room with just a camera and a mic on, and the controllers dropped the sound twice, which is why she rolled her eyes."

Ballard said Abdul, 44, had canceled all media interviews on Friday because she had a sore throat after sitting in the chilly studio on Thursday.

Paula Abdul: Drinks for everybody!

I got an e-mail on Thursday about one of the mass interviews Paula Abdul did promoting "American Idol" - this one on KTVU. The e-mailer said Abdul looked drunk. I get these "tips" all the time and mostly they turn out to be nothing. Besides, on a good day, can ANYONE tell if Abdul is drunk, giddy or high? But then word started getting around that she faltered in more local markets and, well, someone finally got the tape. It comes from Seattle. "Judge" for yourself.

By the way, this makes Thursday's announcement that Abdul will get her own reality show on Bravo - which will follow her around, as reality shows tend to do - all the more interesting. Here's what Abdul said in a statement about her show: "This is a hectic time of my life." But "Hey Paula," will allow "all my fans see the other sides to me beyond what they see on American Idol."

American Idol Judge Paula Abdul Slurs Words, Disses Seattle

Not again. American idol judge Paula Abdul was on a Seattle television station earlier this week and the former Lakers' girl was struggling. While answering questions in an interview she was slurring her words and slamming Seattle and it is another You Tube moment for the singer.

Seattle Times staff reporter Florangela Davila calls it this way:

American Idol" judge Paula Abdul looked utterly loopy, slurring words, smiling crookedly, waving with both hands, unable to stay quite in the camera's frame during a live interview (from New York City) to talk about Seattle's singing talent.

You could, initially, write it off as a technical malfunction. It appeared as if maybe she wasn't properly miked and thus wasn't hearing what Q13 FOX anchors Lily Jang and Carmen Ainsworth were saying.

Continuing, the report from the Times notes that Ainsworth asks: "Right off the bat: What do Idol fans have to look forward to seeing and what are you looking forward to seeing?"
