The Paula Abdul replacement rumors just won't go away. First we had the Courtney Love prank. And now, according to the latest gossip, former Go-Go's lead singer, Belinda Carlisle, was approached a couple of years ago to replace the bubbly, babbling celebrity judge.When asked if she wanted to be a judge on the show, Carlisle answered, "I really don't know. To be perfectly honest, it's just not my thing. I'd rather listen to music that comes from a more organic place. But you know, I just ... don't know if I would or not."
