Paula Abdul Dances Like There's No Tomorrow... With Good Reason
Back in her heyday, Paula Abdul was the "it" girl, especially when it came to dance. LA Laker Girl turned choreographer pop star diva, she rocked music videos and live performances like nobody's business. From tap dancing in "Straight Up" to honoring the legacy of Bob Fosse's "All that Jazz" in her raunchy rendition of "Cold Hearted Snake," she pushed boundaries without ever relinquishing her studio technique.
So now, having given credit where credit is due, I must deliver the sad news (as if we didn't already know!) that Paula Abdul is not only past her prime, she's officially a has-been.
