"Opposites Attract" is a song by American singer Paula Abdul from her debut album, Forever Your Girl (1988).

"Opposites Attract" was the sixth and final single from the album in November 1989 and achieved success in many countries, including the United States, Canada, and Australia, where it was a number-one hit.

[5] An additional rap, written by Romany Malco, was provided by Derrick "Delite" Stevens[6] for the Street mix version of the song, which was edited for the 7"/video.

The Wild Pair Marvin Gunn and Bruce DeShazer did not appear in the video, although two other cats (also animated) did appear, possibly meant to represent them.

This kicks off with a smart little rap then Paula jumps in and tip-taps her way through sounding happy, naive and full of herself, like the homecoming queen out on her first real date.
