Paula Abdul Nearly Replaced on American Idol by Belinda Carlisle

Is there anyone that is not about to replace Paula Abdul on American idol?   First rock star Courtney Love alleged that she had received a call and was set to join the panel of judges that take on the duty of American idol each week.  That really didn't pan out.  Now a former 'Go-Go' is tossing her cleavage into the mix.

According to a report from gossip Jeanette Walls it nearly happened about two years ago and she asks, 'Was Paula Abdul almost replaced on “American Idol” by a former member of the Go-Gos?'

According to the report, The lead singer from the 1980s girl group says she was approached about it. “As far as ‘American Idol’ goes, I was actually approached a couple of years ago about possibly replacing Paula Abdul,” Belinda Carlisle told PlanetOut.com.

“But to answer your question [as to whether she’d want to be a judge on the show], I really don’t know. To be perfectly honest, it’s just not my thing. I’d rather listen to music that comes from a more organic place. But you know, I just ... don’t know if I would or not.” Okay then.

Carlisle also recently confessed that she wanted more male groupies when she was in The Go-Gos.   She told Seven magazine: "We did everything male rockers did, and more - except for the sex. I have to say, we always wanted to have male groupies, but we scared them off."
