After a necessary nine minute Vanderpump Rules debrief, Melissa is giving us the STRAIGHT UP story of singer, dancer, and cheerleader, Paula Abdul! Today’s episode will bring you two steps closer to knowing more about this “spunky” powerhouse whose early career was noticed by legends like the Jackson Five. But Paula has more than a couple of mysteries between her LA Lakers days and her reign as judge on American Idol, including cars, planes, and a questionable relationship with a contestant and pain medication. Don’t ‘rush rush’ to any conclusions until you hear the whole story!
