TIKTOKER G.A.TURKS SAYS: Paula Abdul needs to be recognized. She is one of the best choreographers ever! I have yet to see someone in our generation who Choreographs so entertaining!
Paula suffers from chronic back pain. The fact she could do this dance in the cold is brilliant. You go Paula! Best choreographer and a sweet person. :)
Paula Never gives up especially after a tour bus accident that caused her chronic pain.. but managed to go on stage still after her accident (Under my spell)
@@MrWolfiebites gasp, she's a satanic Jew? 😱
Yes she suffers from RSD/CRPS. I have the same disease :/
Wow she still in great shape ! Love ❤️ ya Paula and wishing you a wonderful and blessed 2023 ! Excelsior!!
Paula ..i love watching you there !!
Great fun!!
Awesome job
Don’t care if about the tapless shoes and the dubbed vocals. I’m proud that almost 40 years later and after all she’s been through she can go out here and still move.
Right? I hope I can move like that in my 60s
💯
Yes! Yes! Yes! 👏
Only 1980s teens know how epic Paula Abdul was for a very intense period of time. 1988 was her most explosive year. Then she came back in '91. It was hit after hit after hit. And the videos were the freshest. I know a lot of people love her from all generations. But people don't even KNOW her hold on us late '80s teens! #genXlovespaula
Truth
99% sure her shoes had no taps on them, she danced and it was great but its okay if the tapping was pre-recorded
All the performers in the Macy’s parade are required to use a pre-recorded track because the floats cannot carry all the sound equipment.
@@PaulaAbdulForever yeah and the tapping was obviously recorded more for the noise it carried because it was so loud
I loved it (former tap dancer myself). She’s still got it.
@@PaulaAbdulForever you are awesome Paula, you rock ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@PaulaAbdulForever honey at your age you did awesome!! You look amazing. Happy New Year! And yes I am replying as if you are her because your tribute channel is well done. ❤
Paula did an excellent job. Performing during the coldest Christmas time on record. She really pushed through considering the pains and surgeries she had from dancing.
Your right she looks a hundred years old
@@michaelroberts4677 lol!!! I thought the same!
That was the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, not Christmas.
60 years old and still has the best moves!!! 🥰
She’s 60?!!!!!
@@annaelisavettavonnedozza9607 yeah
@Google user Just wait until YOU are +60yo…. IF you still have your mentation I wonder how your gait, balance, strength (especially core), equilibrium, and ability to be manual flipped upside down and land on your feet w/o a misstep will be?
Unfortunately, a significant number are lucky if the can just stabilize themselves while walking a straight line w/o an assistive device.
She looks great for 60 with a little help from her “friends” 🤷🏻♀️
@@sk8ercaligirl I don't see nothing wrong from getting a little help from your friends after you've suffered so many surgeries and have arthritis but maybe it's just me
This is 100% cringe
It just makes me smile seeing her up there. Still Doing her thing.
This woman is 60??? Amazing ❤🎉👏
Say it to the people in the back.❤.
Wow
Paula is sweet and still has her dance moves.💃🤸♀️
I would’ve loved if they used the original song. She doesn’t need Autotune.
I love her; she is a fantastic performer, and, as she has battled health issues, for her to perform in the Macy's parade is an inspiration. I have always gotten the impression she is a kind person as well, which is not always the case in the industry. God bless her.
She's still got it. The song is a classic, and I like this remix.
Singing and dancing in heels and in the cold is no joke let alone at 6O yrs old! Love you Paula. Enjoyed meeting you at your show in Vegas a few yrs ago!💜✝️🌸❤️🇺🇸🌹
This was playbacked...
Singing...:))
Def. not singing, she rarely sing live.
I'll never be out of my Paula Abdul phase. She's simply a badass
Peorid!!!!!!!!❤
Same here!! Was part of the Paula Fandom for years during her American Idol days, and while I don't really keep up with her too often these days, I still think she's an incredible human being and this world/the industry needs more people like her (and Dolly Parton!)
Regardless if they prerecorded and etc. for her age she looks great and dance’s awesome
It takes guts to put your self out there , now that she's older
Amazing Paula Abdul!! She has still got it. Bravo 👏 ❤❤ Great energy and you look fantastic!!!!
What, was that Flavor Flav in the crowd 🤣🤣. Looking good Paula 💃🏾👏🏾
It was! 😂
She’s had a lot of plastic surgery on her face. Looks completely different now.
Says the person with no profile picture 😂
@@PaulaAbdulForeverwhat does me not having a profile pic have to do with her looking drastically different? Anyone with eyes can see it. SMH. 🙄
Loved seeing Paula, Dionne, and Mariah on this parade! Legendary queens
Her head is so big now or is it because her body is just so petite?
She's still got it! I grew up to her music. Love you Paula!
She always be my fave female choreographer. She is one of my very 1st dance teachers love her
OMG AT ALMOST 70 yo she moves and looks amazing! 😍
She is too cute !!! Go Paula
Another commenter pointed out she’s 60 years old!!!!! Holy Hell mama!! Get it Paula!! You rock ❤
I absolutely loved Paula Abdul as a child. I used to watch all of her music videos and try to imitate her. Now my 3 year old daughter is totally into her and I love it.
Love her stellar performance still
Paula Abdul got the moves ,GOODLUCK! MOREPOWER !
I used to be a professional dancer, won many awards in my country - now at age 45, even though I never stopped dancing, exercising, leading a healthy life, I am noticing my brain and muscles aren't working in sync as they used to, it all feels stiff and uncoordinated and no matter how many hours I dance, I can't seem to improve. Aging - It is a terrifying reality but then again a huge privilege too. So anyone complaining about a 60 year old dancing like Paula Abdul is dancing - just shut up, you'll be 60 one day too and you'll see!!!!
Straight up I’m telling you I’ve loved you forever I mean 30 years gorgeous that definitely isn’t a hit and run 😘😘😘
To look at her body of work, her many videos showing her dance, I am amazed she is able to do this at 60 and considering all of her painful conditions. How? ❤
She has more than talent than most people today…love Paula Abdul❤
Her choreography is amazing! You don’t see dancing like this anymore. Somethjng about I can’t put my finger on it. It’s just different. It’s so professional and respectable.
The word you might be looking for is "Class" or "Classy" which is something you don't see alot of anymore either 😢
Love you Paula Abdul still looking fabulous and you did a fantastic job like always ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Who cares about the technical details. Paula is a legend! Fan for life ❤❤! She’s the Queen of dance 💃! She’s absolutely AMAZING! ❤❤
For those complaining she was stiff, can you imagine if you will, that she choreographed all the younger dancers, it’s cold out, everything is pre-recorded per Macy’s Parade rule, so that EVERYONE can hear above all the noise. And she’s probably had to dance this a few times down the parade route!!!! 🎉😂🥂🍾🍷🎇🎆☃️❄️🎊🥰🎄💥
Even Simon Cowell didn’t take Paula seriously when they first met, I read. Boy did he learn…the hard way. 🫡 Respect now after all those Idol years!
And now it’s him that is unrecognizable.. what some do to stay young.
Hope YOU’RE ALL AS GOOD WHEN YOU’RE 60 years old! And maintain your trim figures too, after many surgeries for chronic pain.
Go do what you love for 40 years!☘️❄️🥰💃🏾💃🏿💃🏽💃🏻💃🏼Straight up, forever!❤❤❤🎉
There is noway a live show like Macy thanksgiving day parade or any parade that’s on tv is prerecorded
@@aaronkitchens4151 Yes way. John Legend, Rita Ora, and other artists who performed at the parade have already explained on Twitter that the floats can’t carry the full sound equipment. Search any performer who’s performed at the Macy’s parade and you’ll see some of them missed their cue to start as the track plays.
Paula rocks! What an inspiration.
Not to mention all the surgeries she's had to have over the years.
Yessssss!
Seeing her move like this after so many years of suffering with RSD/CRPS gives me so much hope. I was diagnosed at 26 and have only lived 2 years with the awful disease. I aspire to be as mobile as her at 60 💕
Flava flave in the audience lol love it. He was jammin
Sound recorded earlier!! Woohoo Paula show everyone AGE doesn’t matter!! ❤🎉
The queen of entertainment and stage performance 😎
Paula you are awesome! With all the physical pain and surgeries you’ve endured, the fact that you’re still dancing is a testament to your talent, perseverance and dedication to live your best life doing what you love.
Later to the haters who could only dream to accomplish a 10th of what you have! I grew up watching you and after watching this performance , am inspired to better control my own back pain after several marathons! Kudos to you! Happy New Year🎉😂❤
Mind boggling that anyone has anything nasty to say. She's SIXTY YEARS OLD! She dances beautifully!
🙏🏽
Hands Down One Of The Best Dancers And Performers Ever People Slept On You Back In The Day... 🙌
Did they!!! Not in the dance world. We heard her loud and clear. Almost in the category with Debbie Allen. She bought out the beast in Janet.❤. Love Love her!!!!
Nah !! She got her accolades for dancing .. and choreography
is it me or did I just see "Flava Flav" @ 1:11 bouncin' up n down in the crowd??!! 🤔(humm)
I was such a huge fan back in the day. My fave song was 'forever your girl'.
I absolutely loved watching Paula and the dancers perform...from the 80s and beyond her choreography speaks volumes .Frigid weather and all they pushed through a parade....
awwwww :) she will be always be the BEST LAKERGIRL there ever was :D we love you so much PAULA !!!!!
Uh, this woman is 60. 😮. She is AMAZING!
Amazing for 60 years young! Paula is a star ⭐
Wow good on her, 60 yrs old.. I’d do myself an energy, and not 60… ,!!!
Super Bowl need to hit up Paula for the Pre Game show or Half Time appearance 🤩
My favourite choreographer the fabulous PAULA ABDUL still got that amazing voice & those unbelievable dance moves loved you since you burst onto the music industry have all your album's love you PAULA ABDUL from this Australian fan ♥️🌹🌈
She was miming lol
She was ish back in the day, but Rush Rush was my fav by her n all the videos she did were amazing. She is so really talented n she is older n still got it give it up for her, was that flavor Flav in the audience or am I tripping? Lol. I miss her with Simon n Randy on American idol, the good old days left n are nvr returning.
This woman has survived multiple surgeries and pain treatments! Good to see you still at P!🙏🏾❤⚘
Preach, the kids don’t know.❤
Paula still looks as cute as I remember when I was a school girl...we miss you Paula!!
Love seeing you out there, Paula! You are on my Playlist always 💕
She’s still killing it can’t wait until I start dancing again
Gotta give PROPS to The 👑of Dance... she's Paved the way for so many Choreographer 💯💃🏿🎶🌟🎊and STILL she RISES 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
With all due respect I know she's not Young anymore, but she looked like a skeleton dancing on a Hot tin roof! I do believe sometimes you have to give up what you used to do.
Ageist comment. There’s no age limit to be a performer.
flava flav was feeling that joint
Wasn’t it cold out there? They don’t have on warm costumes
OK- JLO!! … I mean PAULA 🤩🤩 & she did it without a cane 🦯 💃🏽!!
💃🏽You go GURL💃🏽
Marvelous! 😍😍😍

Paula & Vanessa Williams
in their 60's and still look like
they are in their 40's😊😊
AMAZING AGING....😊😊
1:10 - 1:14 "FLAVOR FLAV!! YEEAHH BOI!!" 😎⌚
1:11 Flava Flav stay being a groupie 🤣😂💀
They go back...way back, hahaha
Lol sounds robotic and autotuned like she was before her time with that bullshit 😂 love Paula. Literally she IS like one of my favs as a dancer myself it's her and Janet for me. I also love Ciara!!
Paula is a wonderful human being.
Age is just a number. There are 20 year olds that can not do this. Kudos to Paula.
this brought a huge smile to my face.
All I can see is a golden TURKEY! She danced and was paid very well, I'm sure. That's it. 👍🇦🇺
She’s Absolutely Beautiful!
I have a family member who has had major back surgery. There's no way that they could be moving like this. I have bad arthritis and can't even begin to think about moving like this.
I like this arrangement of the song
Doesn’t age!!❤
*Still fine* ❤ I just have 1 question after all these years... "Ah-do-dooo ya luv me?" 😇
How fake this tape-dance is.........play-back singing and play-back tapdance 😄
still got it!
Yeah. She wasn’t tapping at all.
Great dancing!!
She better than she was in the 80’s!!!Make a comeback!!
LoL.. stop
There’s always lip-syncing during the parades and that’s understandable. Paula can still dance!
💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥Paulaaaaaaaaaaa Energy we need in these days...
Lip sync all u want Paula! I’m just happy ur still dipping and doing in ur 60s! Luv this girl!!
She is so cute and timeless. What a great show she puts on. Paula Abdul music makes me get up and dance. ⭐💜💋😋
The Queen😘👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Love her always. She did amazing 👏
My generation grew up on this song😊
She has lost her dance ability. She moves slow and range of movement is not great. It’s gone.
