First, New Kids on the Block.

Now, Paula Abdul.

We can't wait until leg warmers and Hulk Hogan in the WWE both come back, as well.

Reportedly, the Abudl-inspired aspect of the recent 1980s resurgence is due to the fact that the American Idol judge is not content to simply release a song on Randy Jackson's upcoming compilation.

Paula, who hasn't released an album in over a ten years, has announced on her official website that she's working on a new CD.

"New Paula Abdul album coming summer 2008," the site promises. Are you looking forward to it?

Forget any of this year's American Idol hopefuls: Paula Abdul is coming out with a new CD!
