Bring Back MC Skat Kat

Seems like everybody is talking about Paula Abdul’s next gig these days. How can another season of Idol happen without Paula and Randy’s sparring, but may I remind you of another fun-loving couple that collaborated long before those two? MC Skat Kat ring a bell? If not, I’m sure this video will refresh your memory. Everyone knew and loved this cartoon cat meets pop princess dance number. But did you know that MC Skat Kat also enjoyed a bit of a solo career, following his collabo with Paula? I absolutely taped the Skat Strut on VHS and watched it every day I came home from school. I will not tell you my age because it might incriminate me. I also have to admit there was a time when I was Paula Abdul’s #1 fan. I had her branded Reebok “dance” shoes with the double shoe tongues. Oh Paula…such a paragon of cool 90s pops culture. Who would’ve thought we’d fast forward almost 20 years later and be watching you fall asleep in your Coca-Cola cup on American Idol? Should we give MC Skat Kat a ring? Think it’s time for a comeback…
