Dr. Pam Agullo, a plastic surgeon, notes, "it is evident that Paula has had volume restoration with fillers around the cheeks, lips, and mouth, adding, "this has maintained her youthful and refreshed complexion on point."
The singer shut down the 2019 Billboard Music Awards with a six-minute medley of her best bops, including "Straight Up," "Opposites Attract" and "Cold Hearted." The event was Abdul's first televised awards show performance since the 1990 American Music Awards, and she clearly still has all of her dance moves!

"I get up at 6 and I work with my trainer for an hour and a half. Then I go to rehearsals at about a quarter to 9. We do a warm-up and then we dance. We go from about 9:45 until 7 p.m., and we take one day off.
