Before Paula Abdul was a sought after choreographer, she got her start as a dancer for the Lakers. You can tell that the 18-year-old was bound to be an American Idol back in 1980.
Anyone who has a pet can tell you how difficult it is to work out when you have one. They think you are their newest toy. Believe me; you are like a bone to a dog.
Don’t believe me? Here is Paula Abdul trying to exercise, and her dogs are not going to make it easy for her. The pups are going to chase their mom, give her kisses, climb all over her, and teach her how to do downward dog.
How can you be mad at them when they are that arfdorable? I guess that is why they call it puppy love.
BTW Abdul should be used to working out with an animal. After all, she started out her music career dancing with MC Skat Kat.
Back in 1990, Paula Abdul wore a Bob Mackie original to the Grammys, and kept it in her closet until now. Almost 30 years later to the day, she wore it to Children’s Museum of Naples fundraiser.
Even though it has been three decades since we last saw Abdul in it, she looks even better in it now than she did then. Can you be she is 57? I guess all that dancing she does is the secret to aging backward. I am going to have to take it up.
Kelly Clarkson has a new talk show and she had some huge guests on it today. They are Simon Cowell, Paula Abdul and the dog Randy Jackson. Three people who have been with her since the start of her career back in 2002 on a little show called American Idol.
That was an interesting year for all of them and they talked about what it was like working on the singing competition before it aired. Cowell said the auditions were so bad he thought the show was going to fail. He went back to London and had no idea when the show was going to debut in the States. The day after it premiered, he got a phone call telling him the show was a hit. Cowell really thought it would be on for two weeks and then be done. Jackson felt the same way, but Paula knew it was going to be a hit. Who is the smartest one in the trio?
Although the boys would try to make Abdul look crazy and dumb on the judging panel. They would play a game they called The Name Game. Cowell would say to them, you can have x amount of time on Rodeo Drive with his black card if they said certain words like “spotted dick” on the air.
The had a lot of fun working together, as you can see, would they do it again? In a heartbeat. If I were ABC, I would fire those three judges they have now and replace them with this set. Then I would watch American Idol again.
One thing I will never watch again is From Justin to Kelly. I am not alone because Clarkson really hates the film. In fact, the singer told her nanny if she ever shows it to her two kids, that person would be fired. What would it take to get Clarkson to remake it? If Cowell did it with her. He would do it in a small role.
Talking about that film, whatever happened to Justin Guarini? He also was on the show and talked about how he landed that Dr. Diet Pepper commercials. However, he did not say if he would do another From Justin to Kelly. I would watch a sequel, wouldn’t you?
Seeing them all together makes me miss how good Idol was before they added the fourth judge. That is when the show went downhill.
Last night at the Billboard Music Awards, Paula Abdul performed a medley of hits. Since it was the So You Think You Can Dance judge, she did a huge dance number that included a hat. As she was dancing in the audience, she threw her top hat and it hit Julianne Hough on the neck. I guess it caused her some damage because the Dancing with the Stars winner was seen with a neck brace after the show.
Hough wrote, “The result of the honor of being hit in the neck by @PaulaAbdul’s flying hat! Love you, babe!!! 💛💙💜 #BBMAs.” How did the assailant respond, she wrote back “OMG IM PEEING MY PANTS!!!!! You know it was with love 🤣🤣🤣 xoP”
Let’s see how much they love each other when the two judges see each other in court? Or in the ratings, if America’s Got Talent and SYTYCD go neck to neck with each other.
