PAULA ABDUL

The debut full-length studio album by cult American Pop/R&B singer.
The album was Abdul's breakthrough into the music industry after being a choreographer for high-profile clients including Kate Bush, The California Raisins, George Michael, ZZ Top, Duran Duran and most notably Janet Jackson. The album was made on a budget of $72,000. At the time of the album's release, it was the most successful debut album of all time and was the first time an artist scored four US Billboard Hot 100 number-one Singles from a debut album ("Straight Up", "Forever Your Girl", "Cold Hearted", and "Opposites Attract")!
By 1998, Billboard Magazine reported that "Forever Your Girl" was the most successful album released by the Virgin Records label, with all five of its top 20 hits also appearing on the same chart ranking Virgin's Singles. The album was eventually certified seven times Platinum in the US by the RIAA and has sold over 12 million copies worldwide.
