In a recent interview, Paula Abdul discussed Astro’s The X Factor meltdown last week.
“It was one of those things that immediately for me, I thought, something’s going on in a commercial break backstage,” she said. “Right before we were coming back from commercial break, Simon [Cowell] said, ‘He’s not going to do a ‘save me’ song.’ I said, ‘Are you kidding me?’ and I looked over to L.A. [Reid] and he was perplexed.”
Astro blamed his age for the way that he acted.
W”He made a character mistake on television,” she said. “That’s not an excuse, but he is still a young gentleman.”
