Paula Abdul Super Bowl Performance Taped Not Live

UPDATE: View video below

Either the producers of the Super Bowl pregame show want to make darn sure that they don't have a flop like the VMA's did withorwants to make darn sure that we see the best performance she can give. Word is that Paula's comeback performance will be a taped segment that was done in front of a live audience on January 27th.

Fox Sports executive producer, David Hill said this performance was too last minute for Paula and that she is simply too nervous to perform live. It's odd but I think we did a post a few weeks ago, so she had plenty of time to get it going....right?

American Idol host Ryan Seacrest said that Paula has been working very hard and he believes she will pull this off but also added that he will not preview the tape before the pregame show. Ryan wants to be surprised like everyone else. Or does Ryan not want to be put in the position on being asked the million dollar question by Abdul: 'Was I good, will people like me?'
