One can only hope that Paula Abdul’s sense of self worth has been restored given all the media frenzy over her recent decision not to return to American Idol. However, when she daydreamed about how her soon-to-be broken hearted fans would cope with this news, did she ever imagine one taking a few punches for her? Paula must have a way of inspiring young talent because she sure made a big impression on Idol’s Season 4 veteran, Constantine Maroulis.
“American Idol” alum Constantine Maroulis, 33, got his butt kicked by an Abdul hater during Casio’s G-Shock party Wednesday night at Cipriani Wall Street.
“It was hilarious! Constantine got into it with this guy who was probably 6 inches shorter and 60 pounds lighter,” laughs an observer. “The guy body-slammed him and punched him in the face and then just stood up, straightened his tie, and said, ‘B—ch, don’t you ever,’ before walking away.”
The attendee adds, “Security didn’t know what to make of this guy. He was so well-groomed in his suit, and he didn’t look like a threat at all. Constantine was so overwhelmed he just sat there on the floor for a few minutes.”
Not sure what hurt Constantine worse, the punch or his pride. In an attempt to save face with his fans, he tweets:
“It broke up quick, didn’t even know him. Or throw one punch. I don’t mind a fight … but only when it’s fair and I’m looking!”
Awww….it’s okay Constantine! Nothing wrong with defending a woman’s honor! I’m sure Paula appreciates the gesture!
