Kara DioGuardi Got High as a Kite After Eating Drug-Laced Brownies at Paula Abdul's House
Kara DioGuardi describes a terrible trip. Lindsay Lohan begins another stint under house arrest. Kim Kardashian's 20-carat engagement ring looks like a ring pop. And new rumors about Rihanna and Chris Brown. It's TGIFriday gossip.
- American Idol judge Kara DioGuardi got wasted on pot brownies (or maybe shroom brownies?) at Paula Abdul's house: "There were these, little nuggets, little, you know, take six, not a lot. Six hours later I was like, 'heeeey, what's going on?' I fell out of bed, on the floor, I stumbled downstairs and I was like, 'I ate too much.' And the ambulance comes and is like, 'this bitch is as high as a kite.'"
She says she "almost died" because she "had six" brownies, which the maid accidentally gave to her while Paula was away, and ended up spending three days in the hospital, hallucinating and on an IV drip. What the hell kind of ingestible causes three-day near-death hallucinations, and where can I procure it, please? Also: This answers a lot of questions about Paula Abdul's mental state, doesn't it?

I was saying terrible things, like driving a car and going around a curve, and it was stupid, and I was very sorry." He's mad at the Cannes Film Festival for banning him: "Will now the festival only choose people who won't say stupid things at press conferences? If a real criminal came up with a real art film, should he not get the Palme D'or?" Pro-Polanski, I see. [HuffPost]
