"Opposites Attract" was an international hit. In the U.S., it peaked at No. 1 on Billboard's Hot 100. The song was featured on three of Abdul's albums, Forever Your Girl, Shut Up and Dance: Mixes, and the 2000 release Greatest Hits.

"Opposites Attract" was not the Wild Pair's only hit. In 1992, singer Stacy Earl released her single "Romeo & Juliet" which was a duet with The Wild Pair. The song reached the Top 40 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

DeShazer (also known as Tony Christian) and Gunn had previously been members of the band Mazarati, who were proteges of Prince and Brownmark.[1][2]
