I can't believe I am defending Paula

Okay- so I slacked off again and didn't watch this past week.  Well, I watched a little bit and then got distracted.  I watched a few of the beginning singers and heard Ryan repeat, a zillion times, that we wouldn't be hearing from the judges until after the second song.  Then I turned it off so I missed the live action of Paula commenting on Jason C on both of his songs and making a fool of herself.  Then I heard it being repeated again, and again, and again.   Even someone at lunch kept saying, "Did you hear about crazy Paula again?" and when I said that I could see where it got confusing I was hushed with a, "No, come on- she is just plain crazy."

My take on things- we have all had crazy periods of time in our life when you don't even know what day of the week it is right?  I'm sure once AI starts up that things just blur for those involved.  On top of that, a lot of times the judges have caught a sneak peek at the contestants during rehearsal at some point in time.  Add to that the fact that Ryan said we wouldn't hear from the judges until after the second song and then he talks to them in between songs-I'm sure they were confused because I would be.  And then add to that the Paula factor.  She is not the most stable person in the world but I honestly think people are being too hard/critical/mean this time around.  

Now, mind you, she shouldn't have been given the mic to clear things up either because that is just asking for trouble.  

So- just wanted to get that off my chest.  Let Paula go on this one please.  I wonder what the theme is this week?
