And that entertainer was…Paula Abdul!

“So how that happened was, her older sister was dating my guitarist and I was writing songs, demoing them to try to get a record deal in L.A.,” Michael shared. “And, we wanted to go out one night and we realized we couldn’t because we couldn’t leave Paula.

“Our friend’s baby sister, little sister, couldn’t leave her alone. So that turned into the perception that we were babysitting for her,” Michael continued. “But basically we were all stuck at the house.

Years later, Michael said that he called up Paula to work together, and he jokingly called her “a little brat.”

“So then she became a top choreographer before her career took off. I gave her a call out of nowhere and said, ‘I want you to choreograph a video. This is Michael Bolton.’ And she said, ‘It is not.’ And I said, ‘Yeah, it’s me,’” Michael recalled. “And she said, ‘This is definitely not Michael Bolton.’ And I said, ‘Well, who else would call you a little brat?’ And she went, ‘Oh my God, it’s you.’”

He added, “I laughed. And she choreographed the video and then she started having hits and it was just a lot of fun. And then I loved bumping into her and in the business.”
