Paula Abdul underwent cosmetic surgeries to enhance her look

In October 2019, Paula Abdul admitted that she went under the knife to enhance her face. While appearing on The Wendy Williams Show, the host praised the now 60-year-old star for "never" aging, to which she admitted to having undergone cosmetic surgery to get a "little sleeker jawline" before she began her Las Vegas residency.

"Women of our age, we start really looking for aesthetic treatments that resonate with you. I was thinking, ‘I'm going to have my residency, I want to do something,’ but I wasn't ready to have the big incisions or any facelift."

Abdul celebrated her 30-year-old career in the music industry by headlining a show in Vegas called Paula Abdul: Forever Your Girl.

In May 2021, Abdul revealed that she had breast revision surgery to remove her implants as they were "a little too big" for her body. She revealed that because of her "petite" figure, her implants were causing a lot of back pain.

Born on June 19, 1969, Abdul is a native of San Fernando, California. She began her career at the age of 18 as a cheerleader for the Los Angeles Lakers and later headed the Laker Girls as a choreographer. She was later discovered by The Jacksons.
