Paula Abdul has complained that people don't appreciate "the gift" she is to the world.

The 'American Idol' judge breaks down and weeps in the first episode of her new reality TV show, Bravo's 'Hey Paula!', complaining her talent is overlooked.

Paula said: "I'm tired of people not treating me like the gift that I am. The way I've been treated is like a piece of dog s**t."

"They beat me down. But I'm a warrior."

She continued to complain, "The last time I had a hit, Bill and Hillary were having sex," referring to the former US President Bill Clinton and his wife.

In another scene, as Paula is shown the jewelry line she is to sell on the QVC shopping channel, she wails: "This isn't my vision."

The 45-year-old star - who divorced Emilio Estevez after just two years of marriage in 1994, and second husband sportswear designer Brad Beckerman after two years in 1998 - also despairs about the state of her love life.

She said: "My romantic life is like a horror movie."
