Poor Paula
Poor Paula Abdul. Just a few weeks after nearly being sent to jail for speeding away from a car crash, she's having to defend herself from accusations of alcoholism.
People have such short memories. She brought down the Berlin Wall, doncha know.*
How could communism withstand?
*This was a claim some people made in all seriousness at the time. They thought that because the East German yoof had got an earful of the Abdul sound, they were inspired to be so energetic in helping knock down the Berlin Wall. It's not impossible, I suppose. A fair chunk of her music makes me want to knock things over, too.
