Paula Abdul has denied claims by the Ladies' Home Journal magazine that she confessed to a painkiller addiction that landed her in rehab. The 'American Idol' judge told a radio show in Detroit that she had not been treated for dependence on drugs at the La Costa Resort and Spa in California, though she did indeed check-in there.
"It's a spa", she said "I was there for almost three days having fun doing spa stuff. It's not a clinic. It's not a detox place, it's a luxurious spa. It's like taking a mini vacation, I just wanted to chill out and get messages, and maybe a manicure and pedicure".
