Cost of Demand: N/A
Working for Paula Abdul, the renowned dancer, singer, and ex-American Idol judge, is not an easy task, especially with her cat always in tow. A colleague disclosed how Abdul demands assistants monitor TV for any mention of her, recording such instances on DVD.

Rumors swirl about her eccentric requests, including constant reminders from her staff affirming her as a ‘warrior, a survivor, and a godsend.’ This bizarre celebrity tale seems far-fetched, yet with Hollywood’s unpredictability, it might just be the reality.
