    She does so much. She writes the songs, sings and dances. She even does the choreography. Heck, she is absolutely great. Her songs are usually upbeat with a fast tempo. She sings and dances in sync to a perfect rhythm. Wow, what a wonderful singer, dancer Paula Abdul is !

    This will always be one of the best tributes to Bob Fosse's work. Not a recreation, not his signature choreography, but his creative force is all over this. Masterfully choreographed by Paula with a hint of Fosse, but pure Paula.

My older sister would play it as loud as possible on her ghetto blaster while crimping her hair as she got ready to go out to the club on Sat night.

      Right, it hecka gives you some ideas but if you look at her beauty and her ability, as an instructor, and how much he has invested, it would be a discredit to the industry and her safety to pursue such choreography without putting a few safeguards in place. Beyond that statement, what the fuck do you want her to look like and how many fucking risks do you need a bad ass bitch thats talking to a bunch of futuristic snake motherfuckers that don't pay so much as $20 bill to watch her preform? If I was her agent, she would either have what she needed right fucking now, or go get a walker.

    Been coming back to this again and again, it's the choreography, the facial expressions, the rap interlude (I think one of the first songs in the billboard charts to hit number one with some rap included), the pseudo violin breakdown - and yes the singing is awesome too !! It's got attitude - singing cannot be restricted to vowel exhibitionism.

    • @darryl2542
      @darryl2542 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      The very first #1 Billboard hit to have rap was "Rapture" by Blondie, from 1980. But yes, in 1988 rap was still fresh, and Paula Abdul gets some credit for continuing that streak. See also "Opposites Attract", another rap verse, but with an actual rapper as the featured artist. She was a bit ahead of the game on that one, given that Mariah Carey basically credits herself with bringing rap to the pop charts with "Fantasy", yet Paula Abdul did it years before.
