Singer Paula Abdul, the sweet but kookie member of the judging trio on “American Idol,” is the star of a new reality series, “Hey Paula,” premiering on the Bravo cable channel on Saturday, June 28, the Interfaith Family informs.
Because of her features and her Arab last name, many people assume that Abdul is of mixed race and/or interfaith background. This assumption is wrong.
Abdul is the daughter of a Jewish father of Syrian Jewish descent and a Canadian-born Jewish mother. She has been married twice, once to Catholic actor Emilio Estevez (Martin Sheen’s son) and once to a Jewish fashion designer. Neither marriage lasted long.
