She killed it. The fact she’s still dancing like that... WOW! Generations of pop stars who consider themselves dancers owe their careers to her.. so, nice to see her get some mass exposure dancing at the top of her game.

I was doing the MOST last night during her performance. God is all about timing and he made sure her time was NOW! She was remarkable and showed everyone how to work a stage. Serious 80s nostalgia watching this!
Are we also forgetting she's fucking 56!!

Has anyone here mentioned her Vegas residency? Starts later this year at Flamingo! Perfect for her and if she can keep up the dancing, people will pay to see her.

I saw her with NKOTB and B2M...
I paid the ticket JUST to see her lol
She was amazing, my thing with her lipsyncing is she does something AMAZING, like I feel like she pre-recorded it all 30 min. before she performed lol What I mean is, at least her pre-recorded vocals sound like, legit what she would be sounding like at that moment So when she talks to the audience there isn't a Britney moment (*Speaking voice* "Everyone count with me! 1! 2! 3!" *autotuned vocal voice* 1!2!3! Not only you and me!"
Her dancing was then and at the BBMAs is killer... like as a dancer, she (for me) layed the groundwork for what Britney did to me... I've always looked at Paula's work for inspiration...

I wonder why she does not put out an album or ep I mean she has money to do it does not have to expect any big sales but just for her fans... which she always thanks etc...
this year is the moment
30 years after her breakthru

I loved her performance, so glad to see she still has those moves. Just the nostalgia alone, I was obsessed with her when I was a kid, so many killer tracks in such a short period of time.
In terms of dancing when it comes to pop stars, she's the greatest to ever do it IMO (better than Michael, Janet, J.Lo, Britney, Beyoncé, etc.) I can't tell you how many times I fall into a YouTube hole and end up on her old performances. Her dancing was always so fluid and varied.

I hear she's been working on music since the late 2000s and yet never ever comes out. So...

Maybe the material offered to Paula over the past decade has simply been subpar for her. She's always given us quality music -- I even thought "Dance Like There's No Tomorrow" was very strong.

She talks live in her concerts. I think she just wanted to make sure everything was perfect since it’s sort of a sample of her Vegas show.
(Or, more importantly, Cesar’s probably wanted everything to go perfectly.)

Paula's never been a critical darling, but I've always enjoyed the first two albums. Head Over Heels. not as much, though I do like some tracks.
I would like to see a new album- it's been 24 years. Less than a handful of new tracks officially released in that time? It's time to release new music like there's no tomorrow.

I so wish she throw on Boombox (IN FULL) onto whatever album she does... I hate that she has basically confirmed an album in like 2000 2003 2005 2007 2008 2009 2010 2013 2015 2017 2018 It's almost the same time every decade lol and I believe ( STILL believe) it's coming lmfao

Legendary performer. I agree with whoever said she’s the best dancer of the pop circle.
