Do you think its gunna be the last season for Idol?? I heard paula didn't want to do it anymore... Hard to say. Hadn't heard that about Paula. My understanding is that they all had 8-year contracts that are ending this year, so who's to say if any will renew. I've heard Simon wants to move back to England, but that could just be a negotiating ploy. Rumors are that they all get $1M per show - or that could be per week - not sure. With all the advertising revenue, the producers could probably double that and retain all of them until ratings slip to the unprofitable range. Right now, they're still getting incredible ratings. Where else could any of these people find work for that kind of money? Of course, they're all so rich that money probably isn't a primary motivator at this point. When I went to the top three show back in Season Five (with Taylor Hicks, Kat and Eliott), I got in through the back lot and saw Simon's Ferrari and Ryan's "lowered" Bentley in the parking lot. Paula was driving a more "modest" BMW X5 ($60K-70K loaded), but she did have a rather buff looking male chauffer.
