Paula Abdul takes it all back!
Abdul, 46, told two radio shows Thursday morning that she never said she had been addicted to painkillers or checked into rehab.
“It was very stressful for me to hear that and to be quoted saying something. I never said,” Abdul told hosts on the Detroit radio show “Mojo in the Morning.” “I’ve never checked into a rehab clinic. I’ve never been addicted or abused drugs, and I’ve never abused alcohol. I’ve never even been drunk in my life,” she said.
When hosts of the Dallas-based radio show “Kidd Kraddick in the Morning” asked Abdul if it had been difficult to talk about her struggle with addiction, she replied, “I didn’t. I was quoted as saying something I didn’t say.”
She said the facility where she was reported to have retreated to detox – La Costa Resort and Spa – is a vacation spot, not a clinic and that she went there for “mud baths and facials,” not to dry out.
But the magazine interview features Abdul’s vivid description of her withdrawl.
“I could have killed myself…. Withdrawal – it’s the worst thing … I was freezing cold, then sweating hot, then chattering and in so much pain, it was excruciating. But at my very core, I did not like existing the way I had been,” she told Ladies Home Journal.
A rep for Meredith Corporation – publisher of Ladies Home Journal – told the Daily News the magazine is sticking by its story, written by reporter Peter McQuaid. “We definitely stand by out reporting. We’re happy that she shared her journey with us,” said Mariella Azcuy, a publicist for the magazine
