‘X Factor’ Controversy: Paula Abdul Told Nicole Scherzinger to Send Rachel Crow Vote Into Deadlock
Quarterback controversies are common as colds in the football realm, and it looks like we have a judge’s panel controversy brewing in ‘X Factor‘-ville. With last week’s elimination of fan favorite Rachel Crow, thanks to Nicole Scherzinger‘s much-criticized decision to let the vote go to deadlock and allow America’s voting tally to decide, it turns out that the Scherz may not be 100 percent to blame for Crow’s ouster. She may have caved to the pressure applied by fellow judge Paula Abdul.
