Today's Jew of the Day is Paula Abdul!
Paula Abdul is a choreographer and musician well known for very long career in the music industry. She is the child of a Syrian and Canadian Jew. Ms. Abdul began her career doing choreography for the LA Lakers, and was discovered by the Jacksons, with whom she did choreography for, as well as films, such as the keyboard scene in Big.
From there, she started her own musical career and her singles "Forever Your Girl", "Opposites Attract" and "Cold Hearted" all charted #1 on the US Billboards, and her second and third albums were successful as well.
Since 2002, Abdul has been on the reality competition show American Idol.
