Paula Abdul "Diva" Antics Not Welcomed at Airport  4/18/07

American Idol judge Paula Abdul reportedly threw a "diva-like" tantrum while boarding an airplane recently (Apr07), telling fellow passengers she was "too famous" to queue.

Abdul was boarding a Southwest Airlines flight from San Jose to Burbank, California, when she reportedly demanded to be given special treatment and board the aircraft first.

Eyewitnesses claim the star pushed her way to the front of a queue of waiting passengers as one disgruntled commuter shouted, "You're no Sanjaya (American Idol contestant popular for his lack of talent)! You have to board like everyone else."

A source tells The Scoop, "She pulled a major diva trip. The other passengers were not amused. She asked to be let on the plane and seated first."

Abdul's spokesman has refused to comment.
