A 1980s pop star-turned-TV personality is coming to Winnipeg this fall.

True North Sports + Entertainment announced Tuesday that Paula Abdul — known for 1988’s Forever Your Girl album and her role as a judge on American Idol — will perform at Canada Life Centre on Oct. 10.

She’ll be joined by two other artists who saw their greatest success in the same era, Tiffany and Taylor Dayne.
