First reported by Extra, "American Idol" judge Paula Abdul has reportedly broken her nose over the weekend when she tripped trying to avoid stepping on her dog - a chihuahua named Tulip.
Abdul was not hospitalized, but suffered the nose-shattering incident just mere days before the live finale of "Idol." There have been no indications that she will miss the event.
Pretending to trip on your dog is one of the easiest ways to cover up a drunken-vicodin-induced accident.
