Paula Abdul<\/a><\/strong> is proving her icon status on the 2019 Billboard Music Awards<\/a> stage. <\/p>\n

The former American Idol<\/em> showed she’s a force to be reckoned with when she performed a six-minute medley of her classic songs at the close of the jam-packed show. Dressed in a black shimmering cabaret outfit, the artist took to the stage to tap-dance for her hit “Straight Up” before climbing the stage and literally<\/em> jumping into a sea of men. As the men caught the singer, she sang “Vibeology,” before strutting into a performance of “Opposites Attract” with MC Skat Kat himself. <\/p>\n

She got the crowd up on their feet when she and a troupe of dancers shimmied across the stage and into the audience of amazed viewers. To say Paula ended the show on a high-note is an understatement. Confetti literally blasted into the sky as the singer’s impressive performance drew to a close. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Her performance at the BBMAs coincides with the 30th anniversary of the release of her chart-topping song, “Straight Up.” <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

More importantly, this summer the 56-year-old will kick off her Paula Abdul: Forever Your Girl<\/em> residency at the Flamingo Las Vegas. Starting August 13, fans of the pop star will have the chance to see her perform at one of the 20 shows. She tells<\/a> Billboard<\/em>, “I feel like this is the time to do an intimate, fun and exciting show. I’ve always wanted to be in Las Vegas on the Strip performing. And I feel like Las Vegas is kind of a second home to me. I knew it was going to happen one day, and I was thrilled that we able to make it work this time.” <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
