American Idol Hopeful Found Dead in Front of Paula Abdul's House!

A former American Idol hopeful was found dead in front of the home of Paula Abdul last night. 

According to TMZ.com, the deceased woman has been identified as Paula Goodspeed, who you may remember from her 2006 audition at the beginning of Season 5.  For copyright reasons, I cannot publish her picture here but you can see it by clicking here.

I am trying hard not to speculate and come to my own conclusions about this but I’m really struggling.  What in the world was she doing at Paula Abdul’s house and what would cause a young woman to just drop dead like that?!  You know people are going to be talking about drugs or stalking or suicide (so far, it does look like a drug overdose/suicide). 

What do you think?  I will update this story as news becomes available.

*update – she was found in her car and it is believed that she committed suicide.
