As I’ve shared before, after successfully defending my PhD in 1996, and going out for lunch at which I ate hardly nothing, I barfed on the way back to the uni in the presence of my supervisor and external examiner.

It was laid out early I would write about barf.

Paula Abdul has dealt with many excited contestants in her time as TV competition judge, but she’s never had someone vomit on her during an audition… until now.

During Monday’s episode of “So You Think You Can Dance: The Next Generation,” young Chi Tahani gives it her all on stage. When she finds out she’s been promoted to the next round in the show, she hugs judge Nigel Lythgoe and the walks over to hug Abdul.

After the hug, Tahani’s cheeks puff up and Abdul asks, “Are you OK, honey?”

Tahani nods but then proceeds to vomit on Abdul.

“It’s OK, honey,” Abdul quickly assures her.

She then reflects, “I’ve never had anyone just vomit on me like that.”

Tahani explained after she left the auditorium, “She just squeezed me too tight and all the happiness came out on her jacket.”
