Paula Abdul insists Michael Bolton learned all his parenting skills from her after getting a job babysitting the wild child. The 80s pop star first met the future singer when she was just seven years old.

She recalls, "He used to call me a brat and I said he was the worst babysitter in the world, but I actually loved him. I was once wearing my cute little Brownies (Girl Scout) uniform. I stuck a pencil in my knee and Michael had to take me to the doctor. He's a good father now, and I think he got his training babysitting me ... but I don't think he ever sang me to sleep."
