In conversation with People, Paula declared her past year as a trajectory change in her life and career.

“Turning 60 this past year was incredible and trajectory change for my life and career, now I want to build and leave a legacy behind.” She told the publication.

She continued, “Legacy of support, kindness and help for those who can’t stand up for themselves. Self-assuredness that you can do anything as well as to learn to techniques of combating bullies.”

According to her, talent plays only half a role in one’s success the rest is done by perseverance and undying belief in oneself.

Commenting about her transition from popstar to a judge in American Idol, Abdul declared herself ‘Queen of renaissances.’ She added, “I love doing what I do and I love spreading joy.”

Paula revealed that she’s producing a couple of television projects, adding that she’s also building live shows.
