Paula Abdul Tapped To Headline 'Star Search' Reboot

Paula Abdul is set to headline an updated version of Star Search for ABC.

The 47-year-old former American Idol judge will reportedly host and judge the competition beginning in the summer, according to EW‘s Michael Ausiello.

No word yet on whether Star Search would interfere with fellow judge Simon Cowell‘s US version of The X Factor, which is set to debut in fall of 2011.

Star Search premiered in 1983 with host Ed McMahon and was briefly brought back to the airwaves in 2003 with Arsenio Hall.

Is this a good fit for Paula – YAY or NAY?
