Since quitting `American Idol` last week, Paula Abdul has been receiving offers, including a spot on ABC`s hit show, `Dancing with the Stars`. According to ABC Entertainment President Steve McPherson, he called her right after he heard about her exit from `American Idol` to let her know she was welcome anytime on `Dancing with the Stars`.

Abdul, who famously exchanged wedding rings with The Breakfast Club star, Emilio Estevez, in 1992, has seen a real up shift in her career since appearing on `American Idol`. 

About inviting Abdul to appear on Dancing with the Stars, McPherson had some very kind and generous words: "I told her we'd love to have her on 'Dancing' - as a judge, a guest star or a contestant. She's a huge talent. I think there's a sensitivity and a kind of emotion to her that balances out 'Idol.' And we'd love to get a piece of that. It would be great."

Since announcing her retirement from American Idol via Twitter last week, the former pop-star has kept fairly quiet, presumably keeping her options open. ABC`s offer is not the first once since announcing her departure: Nigel Lythgoe, producer of Fox`s `So You Think You Can Dance`, has extended a public offer, though he also mentioned it's unlikely his show is looking for a full-time judge.

Fox President Peter Rice, responding to the Abdul`s sudden resignation from `American Idol`, said that she had been given "a very fair" offer for a new contract. Insiders claim said she was offered up to $5 million a year - close to double her past salary. Despite the alleged increase, she would still earn less than host Ryan Seacrest.

Paula Abdul recently unwittingly appeared in Sasha Baron Cohen`s outrageous film, Bruno, where she sat on a Mexican and used another as a table.

Update: Paula Abdul has just premiered her new dance show, Live To Dance, where she is the head judge.
