PAULA Abdul is ditching her posh digs after an obsessed fan killed herself outside the “American Idol” judge’s sprawling LA home.
“Paula simply feels she has outgrown her house,” a spokesman for Abdul tells Us Weekly. “And given the recent public disclosure of her address, it seemed time that she move into a gated community.”
On Nov. 11, the fan, Paula Goodspeed, was found dead inside her parked car near Abdul’s house. Goodspeed, who had auditioned for and appeared on “Idol” three years ago, died from a suspected drug overdose.
Goodspeed is believed to have been stalking Abdul for some time.
At the time, Abdul was said to have felt “violated” by the incident and sources even claim that she has been staying away from the house since.
Abdul has denied the reports, but her house has now hit the market less than a month after the incident.
A friend of Abdul’s told Us that the former singer and choreographer is, “doing better. Her spirits are starting to lift.”
