Review until 1992.- Paula Julie Abdul (born June 19, 1962in San Fernando, California, to Harry Abdul, a former livestock trader and owner of a sand and gravel business, and Lorraine Rykiss, a concert pianist who once worked as film director Billy Wilder's assistant). Abdul's father was a Sephardi
Syrian Jew who immigrated with his family to Brazil and then to the U.S. while her mother is also Jewish and originally from Saint Boniface, Winnipeg, Canada. She and her sister, Wendy, grew up with their mother in the San Fernando Valley. Abdul was inspired towards a show business career by Gene K
elly in the classic film Singin' in the Rain as well as Debbie Allen, Fred Astaire, and Bob Fosse. Abdul began dance lessons around the age of eight and showed a natural talent for it. She attended Van Nuys High School where she was a cheerleader and an honors student. At 15, she received a scholar
ship to a dance camp near Palm Springs. Abdul studied broadcasting at California State University, Northridge. During her first year was selected from a pool of 700 tryouts for the cheerleading squad of the Los Angeles Lakers, the famed Laker Girls. Within three months she became head choreographer
. She quit school six months later. Abdul went on to choreograph videos for several artists in the 1980's including many videos for Janet Jackson during her Control era. In 1987 Abdul used her savings to make a singing demo. Although her voice was relatively untrained, her exceptional dancing prove
d marketable to the visually oriented, MTV-driven pop music industry. In 1988, Abdul released her debut album Forever Your Girl. The album took 62 weeks to hit #1 on the Billboard 200 album sales chart, the longest an album has been on the market before hitting #1 - it spent 10 weeks there. The alb
um eventually became multi-platinum in the spring and summer of 1989 and it spawned five American Top Three singles, four of them #1s: "Straight Up", "Forever Your Girl", "Cold Hearted", "(It's Just) The Way That You Love Me", and "Opposites Attract". A remix album, Shut Up and Dance, was also relea
sed and reached #7 on Billboard's album chart, becoming one of the most successful remix albums to date. The Grammy award-winning video for "Opposites Attract" featured an animated cat named MC Skat Kat. As a sign of Paula's enormous popularity, the cartoon cat scored his own record deal later that
year, becoming the first artist signed to Abdul's own Captive Records. Abdul's voice was sampled on one track and she appeared in the video for the first single. Abdul also went on a Club MTV tour where she performed the songs off her album. Several other acts were also on the tour. Overall the tou
r helped raise Abdul's popularity even more. Abdul's follow-up album, 1991's Spellbound, contained another string of hits, and went on to sell 13 million copies. Hits included "Rush, Rush" (which topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart for five consecutive weeks, thanks to its music video and Rebel With
out a Cause motif featuring Keanu Reeves in the James Dean role), "Promise of a New Day", "Blowing Kisses in the Wind", "Vibeology", and "Will You Marry Me?". The first single, "Rush, Rush", was a ballad, which surprised many, as singers generally release an up-tempo song as a first single. The albu
m Spellbound retained much of the dance-oriented formula heard on her debut album. The track "U" was written for Paula by Prince. Personal struggles during 1993-1994 was around this time when Paula's personal life began to cloud her career. In 1993 she helped her sister Wendy overcome an over-eatin
g disorder. Abdul was eventually caught and she herself admitted to the disorder bulimia and checked herself into a clinic to overcome the self-esteem issues triggering her bulimia. Her reputation was also damaged when backing vocalist Yvette Marine claimed she sang on the Forever Your Girl album, n
ot Paula. The case started in August, and lasted one month. Eventually Paula and Virgin records won the case. That same year Paula filed for divorce from Emilio Estevez. The divorce was finalized in 1994, but both remain friends to this day. Abdul promoted the album through the "Under My Spell Tour.
" This tour almost didn't happen because of an accident during rehearsals that was bad enough she almost had to cancel. The tour went as scheduled anyway and ran from October 1991 to the summer of 1992. After her initial period of success, she suffered a series of reverses in her professional and p
ersonal life, until she found renewed fame and success in the 2000s as a judge on the highly rated television series American Idol.
