HOLLYWOOD, CA - Paula Abdul may have voted herself off America's Got Idols after a salary disagreement with FOXX executives, but she still has at least one career option left.

The singer-dancer-choreographer-reality judge has reportedly been offered a lucrative contract by drug manufacturer PharmCor, the makers of nonsequiturex and uncontrolawobblinol, who want her to be their spokesperson.

Whether or not Abdul has the presence of mind to accept the offer remains unclear, though many agreed it would certainly be in the dimming star's best interest.

Abdul's 2007 Bravado reality series, Hey, Girlfriend! put nearly as many people to sleep as PharmCor products during its seven-episode run, and her recent single, "I'm Still Here Despite My Music," racked up only 64k in digital sales, outperformed by 80's acts like the Commodores who didn't even have a single that week.

One program director for a New York City radio station indicated she would rather hear the sound of a dead horse being beaten than endure Abdul trying to revive her singing career.

Should she choose not to accept the PharmCor offer, say sources, Abdul may still have a career in comedy tripping over chihuahuas and playing "straight man" in Sacha Baron Cohen gags.
