Paula Abdul returns for Idol finale, announces new show

Hot on the heels of the announcement that Paula Abdul will be a guest judge on this Wednesday's American Idol finale—which also happens to be Simon Cowell's last episode of the series—comes the news that Abdul has at last found a new TV home. According to Rolling Stone, the pop star will be a judge on CBS' upcoming competition show Got To Dance, described as the first "all-ages, all-genres dance series—from ballroom to break dance, bhangra to ballet, and tap to tango." Previous rumors had Abdul angling to be on Cowell's new, Americanized version of The X-Factor, not to mention a reboot of Star Search.
