This is why Paula's still got a rockin' body today!! That woman can dance!!! that tap dancing is insane!!! andddd not lip syncing :) suck it, haters! =D
i think that she is amaizing that was a great lesson of how to do a perfect performance, she is an amaizing dancer i think she is the best PAULA please come back, oh i really wish that she would be with simon i think that the both will be a great parents maybe thats´s the reason why their relacionships has not work out maybe they are ment to be please paula have a baby
Shut up about the lipsync shit already people ...who cares , the dancing alone is worth watching .....after seeing this , I think J. Cole sucks mammoth ass..he destroyed the song "straigh up"
I will always love watching the lady dance, but the extra dancers here are nothing but clutter, and the camera work in capturing her moves is pitiful.
To this day that performance is bad ass and it's my favorite live performance from an artist((ok only second to MJ's performances,I'm sure Paula won't be mad about that. He was her favorite))
I don't care what anyone thinks! Paula Abdul is a talented singer, choreographer, producer, actress, you name it! And no one, I repeat no one, has the right to talk about her badly. Whether she used computerized stuff or what, it doesn't matter to me. She has PURE talent! Not like Miley, Shakira, or Britney! Yeah, I'm like, 12, but who the hell cares?! Your age shouldn't judge whether you can tell if someone has talent. And SHE, HAS TALENT! So forget all yall haters. I love her!
God. She sings live (and sounds MUCH better than most live singers of today) and dances her ass off, all while in heels. She is fierce and I love her so much. One of the biggest pop icons, and even if you don't like her, you can't deny her oozing talent. One of a kind. =) She's sweet, too; the ending was the best!
@MarryXMeXBuryXMe She's lip syncing throughout the entire number. Perhaps you're too young to remember but Paul Abdul was considered commercialized fluff back in the day. Everything from her breast to her nose is fake (she had an enormous beaker) and she was one of the first vocalists to use electronics to enhance her flat vocals. She was a corporate image who couldn't write, play or produce her own music (sorta like AI contestants). The only ppl who were interested were teenage girls
@ritter89 That's great, but I really don't care what society considered her. When I watch her performances I see talent and that's all that matters. And Paula had a nose job back before she was famous-- probably some facelifts, too, but other than that I don't think anything about her is fake. Oh, and by the way, she choreographed for the Jacksons-- so I'm pretty sure she COULD produce her own music. Just because I'm young doesn't mean I can't think she's talented.
@MarryXMeXBuryXMe fuck you she never coreograph for michael jackson. michael jackson was cheated in 1989 best dance video when he lost to paula abduls video that is call straight up everybody was shocked when smooth criminal lost to straight up, straight up was a very bad and boring song no dancing at all
@manche44 Ummm. I said the Jacksons? And actually, she did. Before she was even famous she choreographed for their Victory Tour, and Michael put her in the background of a few of his videos. Please do your research before telling me fuck you. It doesn't help your argument at all.
@MarryXMeXBuryXMe which video's of michael's was she in btw? i know she choreographed the victory tour and they worked together on many occasions, but i've never spotted her in his videos. then again i wasn't looking for her...
@padfoot92 She was in the background of Liberian Girl-- if you rewatch the video she even does the count off in the beginning, as a tribute to her choreography for them behind the scenes. She is also a background dancer in another video-- I forgot the name of it, regrettably, but I'll let you know if I ever find it.
@ritter89 Paula's true talent is her choreography--she is a great dancer & dance teacher. She can sing, but it's believed that Paula's vocals were laced with another's singers vocals--not lipsyncing but how the industry used Mariah Carey early in her career by adding her voice to a less powerful singer's voice to enhance the sound. Kinda how auto-tune hides weak singers now, but real singing. Anywho, Paula won a court case to prove she did sing the majority vocals on her album--but enhanced.
Wow she is dancing and singing live. She puts this generation to shame. I miss 80's music and the early 90's and 00's. I was born in 89 I missed this legendary performance
i wasn't even born yet. but now she is the most important person in my life & i love her SO much! this performance is AMAZING. Honestly, when she was first tap dancing on the ledge thing, i instantly got goosebumps & i will admit, i teared up a bit. lol. Paula is the most amazing woman on the planet. she is the most amazing dancer & choreographer. lol i will also admit... i full on cried as soon as she started singing "Forever Your Girl" ... that song just really gets me. lol. LOVE HER!
No one will argue that she's a lot better than Britney, and what I like about her a lot is the way she dressed on the safe side but still look gorgeous and sexy!!!
P.S. ... now that I look at this, its pretty obvious to me that she's singing here. Heard the album enough times to know the subtle changes she's making.
I totally support lip syncing when there is dancing like this. But if you're just standing there, bouncing around, for Pete's sake! There's no excuse for it! This is one of those times where its okay. It was cool for MJ to do it too. But seriously, there are only a hand full of people who get a pass to do it.
Man, that was nice, the coreography is very much like an architecture, not just a bunch of dancers behind her making the same steps (Hello, Janet lol)
I love Paula but if yoy look at her most recentr performances and are objective, you can tell she can't dance like she used too. She can dance but her moves are a lor looser and she doesn't dance much. Of course that's probably because of her back and whatnot
I wish that I was alive during this times. :| It sucks that I didn't get to watch this LIVE. DAYUMN, she's so awesome.. I bet my life that nobody can top this now, UGGHH, I hate the music being produced right now, they ALWAYS talk about either sex or Drugs... EWW. and that came from a 15 yr old girl..
these songs go deep.. u can hear it always and its make u feel real good.. not like these worthless music we have nowadays nobody will remember.. actually real pop died.. Paula Abdul had a relative short successfull music career but she was definitely one of the best pop acts.. I give her my credits
I categorize her a performer and not a singer. Her goal is to entertain. Anyway Lip Syncing is a form of art and I don't know why people disapprove of this technique when it seems logical when one dances.
@unholyedsoul I know where you are coming from but i would not go to a queen concert if I knew that they were lip syncing. I go for Freddy's amazing voice and bands talent.
it's fantastical! WHERE her first tour? Paula Abdul to create wonder!
i need to see Paula's first tour on a Club MTV tour - greatest performances from Paula Abdul forever! But my search = 0, just zero:(( Why Paula Abdul without this concert (first tour) on DVD or VHS?((( Where may to get it, to buy it?
@43slade exactly. you can hear the differences CLEARLY while she was SINGING all the song. all you have to do is listen to the origianl songs and then listen to this LIVE performance. Paula wanted to make a statement and she did by singing abd dancing at the SAME TIME
wow...i've been try'n to find this video clip for ages. I'm an avid fan of Paula's loved her style of dance...everyone had a dream, mine was to dance like this woman...she will always be my idol...thank you antcar 1375 for let'n me relive my dream again...awesome mate!!!
amazing i still listen to her lyk OLD songs and They never get old .... u idiots out there who say that she don't have talent obviously live n a bubble ... she is obviously singing live :)
I would've passed out after seeing her live. She was iconic. It's a shame she didn't sing that well and the nineties was full of crappy music. She would've been a hit nowadays with her acts.
she is mor eof a dancer than a singer....performances like these really dispaly her talent for dance (she did the choreography for this number)
She is perhaps onece of the greatest choreographers of modern times (she did choreography for The Jackson tours and Prince tours, and she also worked with Janet in her early videos)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
So i gues there never was a point in time where Paula didn't lip-sync. I thought maybe at least in the eighties she could actually sing and didn't have a copmuter do it for her
You're an idiot. This isn't even close to the original or the remix/dance version. She's not lip-syncing...you can tell by the tremor you sometimes hear in her voice while she's dancing.
@43slade best performer of her time, best female dancer and performer of all time, Paula Abdul is one of a kind, there would never be anyone close to her talent and charisma
Just noticed the microphone switcing hands. I've seen this performance before but never caught it.
When Paula is singing Cold Heartet snake, she hands the microphone to one of the dancers at 4:25, just before she's about to dance with the male dancers.
Then at 4:58 she gets it back from a female dancer when she's about to sing again.
It's just like it seems so effortless but I'm sure they have put a lot of work into it. So many things could have went wrong.
Hey, I'm not at any point saying that there's anything wrong about it. I'm just pointing out that I'm impressed by how professionally and effortlessly the microphone were swiching hands so that you barely notice it.
And I didn't say that she's not singing live, not at any moment did I imply that. It would only be a hindrance for her to hold it while dancing.
I'm sorry if I didn't express myself clearly. I'm a big fan of Paula

its ridiculous she had to pass out backstage after all that
randomwhiteguy8784 2 years ago
she is mor eof a dancer than a singer....performances like these really dispaly her talent for dance (she did the choreography for this number)
She is perhaps onece of the greatest choreographers of modern times (she did choreography for The Jackson tours and Prince tours, and she also worked with Janet in her early videos)

It's a mix of singing live and over a track.... It's like watching a really great choreographer try to sing and dance.

So i gues there never was a point in time where Paula didn't lip-sync. I thought maybe at least in the eighties she could actually sing and didn't have a copmuter do it for her

You're an idiot. This isn't even close to the original or the remix/dance version. She's not lip-syncing...you can tell by the tremor you sometimes hear in her voice while she's dancing.

@43slade best performer of her time, best female dancer and performer of all time, Paula Abdul is one of a kind, there would never be anyone close to her talent and charisma

@pumpdaddythe1st I could not agree more. She is an icon.

Just noticed the microphone switcing hands. I've seen this performance before but never caught it.
When Paula is singing Cold Heartet snake, she hands the microphone to one of the dancers at 4:25, just before she's about to dance with the male dancers.
Then at 4:58 she gets it back from a female dancer when she's about to sing again.
It's just like it seems so effortless but I'm sure they have put a lot of work into it. So many things could have went wrong.

she was not singing at that time and needed her hands to dance whats so wrong with that?
ThePaulaAbdulfan 2 years ago
and she was singing live wither u like it or not :)

Hey, I'm not at any point saying that there's anything wrong about it. I'm just pointing out that I'm impressed by how professionally and effortlessly the microphone were swiching hands so that you barely notice it.
And I didn't say that she's not singing live, not at any moment did I imply that. It would only be a hindrance for her to hold it while dancing.
I'm sorry if I didn't express myself clearly. I'm a big fan of Paula
