DEBBIE GIBSON'S SHOCKING TRANSFORMATION!

The 80s pop sensation who ruled the airwaves with her sassy tunes and chart-topping hits is back, and this time, she's unrecognizable!

Debbie Gibson, the queen of teen pop, has undergone a stunning transformation that will leave you speechless. Gone are the days of big hair and bigger hooks; instead, we're treated to a radiant Debbie rocking extremely short shorts and a printed camisole.

She went on to star on Broadway in popular shows like Grease and Cabaret. And the talent appeared on reality TV shows like Celebrity Apprentice. Then there was that racy Playboy photo shoot that won raves. She also dated TV stars Lorenzo Lamas and Ryan Seacrest. Who is she?

But before we dive into her fabulous new look, let's take a trip down memory lane. Remember "Lost in Your Eyes"? That song was EVERYTHING in the late 80s! Debbie's debut album, Out of the Blue, shot to number one on the Billboard charts, making her an overnight sensation at just 16 years old.

Fast-forward to today, and Debbie has traded in her microphone for a stage in Las Vegas. She's been killing it with her up-tempo tunes and sassy performances that have fans eating out of the palm of her hand.

But behind the scenes, Debbie has been working on something even more exciting – her memoir! Titled Eternally Electric: The Message in My Music, this book is set to drop on September 9, and trust us when we say it's going to be a wild ride. Debbie has been opening up about her life story, sharing stories that will leave you breathless.

"I found it terrifying to write my memoir," she confessed to PEOPLE magazine. "But I hope it will inspire people."

And what can readers expect from this tell-all tome? Well, for starters, they'll get a glimpse into Debbie's personal struggles and triumphs. She's been candid about her experiences with fame, love, and heartbreak, and we're talking major tea-spilling here!

"I always felt like the girl who was like, people would say, 'Well, if you could do it, I could do it.' I hope they read this book and they say, 'Oh my God, you went through that? I went through that. And you turned that around. Great, I want to turn that around.'"

It's Debbie Gibson. Gibson was seen running errands in Sin City where she has been working. The versatile crooner was sporting extremely short shorts that revealed her underwear and slender legs

Debbie's also been sharing some juicy behind-the-scenes stories about her time on Broadway, where she starred in shows like Grease and Cabaret. She even appeared on reality TV shows like Celebrity Apprentice (remember when she worked with Donald Trump?) and Secret Celebrity Renovation.

And did we mention that Debbie has also had a thing or two to say about her Playboy photo shoot? Let's just say it was a major comeback moment for our girl!

In the midst of all this drama, Debbie's been touring the country, spreading love and good vibes with her Acoustic Youth shows. These intimate performances are a far cry from her days as a teen pop sensation – but we're loving every minute of it!

She also had on a printed camisole with lace trim and a dainty necklace as her blonde hair was clipped on one side and pulled up. Later Debbie added a NEW YORK sweatshirt as she looked at her cell phone

"I have always loved breaking songs down to their purest form and Acoustic Youth will find me at the keys, super intimate, telling stories and playing the songs the way I first wrote them on the piano," she shared.

So there you have it, folks! Debbie Gibson's life story is about to get a major overhaul with her new memoir. Stay tuned for more updates from this pop phenomenon!
