Former American Idol Contestant Found Dead Outside Paula Abdul's Home

For our generation, who grew with Paula Abdul as the wacky judge of “American Idol” rather than as a pop culture star, it’s hard to imagine an obsession with her. However, it seems such adoration is possible. A woman supposedly obsessed with Abdul was found dead in her car outside of the singer’s house today in a possible suicide.
 

TMZ reports that the woman was a previous contestant on “American Idol”:

We've learned the identity of the dead woman, Paula Goodspeed, who appeared on Season 5 in 2006. During her audition she said she's an artist and the first pic she ever drew was of Paula Abdul. "Idol" produced a 3 minute and 40 second featurette on Goodspeed and her passion for Paula. She did not make the cut, after Ryan Seacrest proclaimed, "And the love affair is over."

TMZ also explains that the rejection was hard on the woman: “Goodspeed also blogged about her ‘American idol’ rejection, saying how hard it was to deal with the ‘awful things’ being said about her, ‘just because I made the mistake of trying out for a singing competition before I was `even` ready vocally, emotionally and physically.”
 

Whether this has anything to do with the suicide is unknown.
 

A spokesperson for Abdul has said that the singer is “shocked and saddened” by the death.
