Throwback Thursday: Paula Abdul


It's that time again, and we are going to Throw it back to a time before American Idol made Paula Abdul a household name as a judge. Why, she was a household name before, because she was 'Forever Your Girl', especially in the 90s.

The story of Paula Abdul is well known. Once a Laker Girl, then a choreographer to Janet Jackson, it was only natural that Paula would take center stage. So when she broke out in the late 80s with her debut album 'Forever Your Girl', the face of pop music was never the same.

After releasing the 1st (Knocked Out) and 2nd (The Way That You Love Me) singles, it was obvious that Paula's star was on the rise. However, it was when she released the 3rd single, 'Straight Up', that put her on the celestial map.

Released in November of 1988, the single would help boost 'Forever Your Girl' to the top of the charts. It would also hit #1, and stay there for 3 weeks this day in 1989.

So here is your Throwback for Thursday...
