Will Paula Abdul be pushed out of "American Idol?" According to the L.A. Times, her manager, David Sonenberg says that Abdul's contract has yet to be renewed. "I find it under these circumstances particularly unusual; I think unnecessarily hurtful," he said of the contract holdup. "I find it kind of unconscionable and certainly rude and disrespectful that they haven't stepped up and said what they want to do."
