Paula Abdul Settles Lawsuit Against Nigel Lythgoe
Paula Abdul has settled her lawsuit against former American Idol producer Nigel Lythgoe, in which she alleged he sexually assaulted her in the early 2000s. The settlement, filed in Los Angeles Superior Court, is yet to be approved by a judge, and its terms remain confidential. Abdul expressed gratitude for the resolution of this 'long and hard-fought personal battle' and hopes her experience can inspire other women facing similar challenges. Lythgoe, who denied the allegations, stepped down from his role as a judge on So You Think You Can Dance following multiple misconduct claims against him. Abdul previously settled with co-defendants related to her claims and was set to go to trial against Lythgoe next August. The lawsuit has highlighted broader issues of sexual misconduct in the entertainment industry, prompting other allegations against Lythgoe.
