Can Paula Abdul dance?

Even though Paula Abdul won't be returning to 'American Idol,' ABC executives would love to secure her as a judge for the next season of 'Dancing With The Stars.

I think she's a huge talent," ABC Entertainment President Stephen McPherson said. "There's a sensitivity and an empathy that balances out 'Idol,' and we'd love to get a piece of that.

While no official confirmation has been made, ABC wants Abdul to grace the judges' table with current 'Dancing' judges Carrie Ann Inaba, Len Goodman and Bruno Tonioli. "I was a little stunned by the decision, and we would love to have her," McPherson said.
