* MisaimedFandom: Debbie once complained in a 2000s interview about how people assumed "Shake Your Love" was a dance, rather than its intended meaning of being unable to shake your crush on someone, and she cringes whenever someone tells her they've been "shaking their love."

Added DiffLines:

* BigInJapan: 1990's ''Anything Is Possible'', compared to its two multi-platinum predecessors ''Out Of The Blue'' and ''Electric Youth,'' limped its way to gold, and only reached #41 on the Billboard charts. In Japan, it's her highest-charting album at #5, and Debbie enjoyed a few more years of success over there.
* LGBTFanbase: No surprise since Debbie Gibson played in gay clubs right from her early career. As she told ''People'':
-->'''Debbie:''' I performed at a lesbian club in Brooklyn and loved it so much, I didn’t wanna leave! The girls were so thrilled a new teen artist would play there. I am forever bonded with the [=LGBTQ=] community from those early club days!
* {{Narm}}: 1992's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a99v7oW6Itg "Shock Your Mama,"]] both song and video. It's Debbie playing catch-up with NewJackSwing, to the point that she ''raps'' on this song - even though it comes off more like a shy whisper. A lot of young pop stars go HotterAndSexier to transition into a more mature image, but that's a really tough sell coming from sweet, wholesome Debbie.
