Well, how can I say this...Gangster's Paradise talks abt the so-called paradise of the gangster lifestyle and it has Michelle Pfieffer sitting in the chair like Florence Henderson with Coolio rapping to her.
Ireneparalegal 03-09-2006, 04:14 PM Michelle Pfeiffer - Coolio (Gangster's Paradise)

Edward216 05-05-2016, 02:45 AM Wow, there are so many. Here are some I can think of off the top of my head.
More recent ones.
Weird Al Yankovic's Tacky has Jack Black, comic Margaret Cho, comedian Aisha Tyler, actor Eric Stonestreet and I believe there's one other celebrity that I can't remember right now.
From a few years ago actor Tony Hale was in the video for Lady Antebellum's Hey Bartender.
Back in the 1990s actress Kirsten Dunst was in Savage Garden's video for I Knew I Loved You.
In the 1980s model Christie Brinkley was in videos for Billy Joel's Uptown Girl and Keeping The Faith, although she has a much briefer appearance in Keeping The Faith than Uptown Girl. They were still dating at the time and later married and had a daughter and have now been divorced for several years.
Rock/pop singer Huey Lewis is in Reba McEntire's video of the song Is There Life Out There, he plays her husband in the video actually. I've always wondered how that one came about.
Actress Angie Harmon is in Craig Morgan's video of This Ol' Boy.
Actor Rick Schroeder is in the video of Brad Paisley and Allison Krauss's Whiskey Lullaby.
Well known Star Trek actor Leonard Nimoy in the 80s was in The Bangles' Going Down To Liverpool video.
I'll have more later.
Ed. Edited because I mixed up The Bangles and Bananarama.
Edward216 05-05-2016, 04:07 PM I've thought of some more.
Actor Andy Griffith is in Brad Paisley's Waitin' On A Woman video.
A few with Toby Keith. Heather Locklear is in his video for Crash Here Tonight. And former NFL football player, commentator, and sometimes actor Terry Bradshaw is in the video for Keith's song I'm Just Talking About Tonight.
Several fellow country singers are in Hank Williams Jr.'s All My Rowdy Friends Are Coming Over Tonight video. Too many for me to remember actually.
Model Paulina Porizkova is in The Cars' video for their song Drive. She would eventually marry lead singer Ric Ocasek a few years later. And they have 2 sons together.
Ed.
Vahan 05-05-2016, 04:14 PM Jennifer Love Hewitt in Smash Mouth's Can't Get Enough of You Baby.
Edward216 05-05-2016, 04:21 PM Comedian and actor Robin Williams is in Bobby McFerrin's Don't Worry Be Happy video.
Ed.
UMFaninMD 05-08-2016, 11:30 AM Jake Gyllehnaal and Ron Howard, of all people, were in Jamie Foxx's "Blame It."
Stevie Nicks was in Destiny's Child's "Bootylicious." Makes sense since the guitar riff from "Edge of Seventeen" is sampled.
Weird Al had Donny Osmond, Judy Tenuta, Seth Green, and Key and Peele in "White and Nerdy," Doug Llewellyn (from The People's Court) in "Headline News," and Drew Carey in "All About the Pentiums."
Zoneboy 05-08-2016, 01:14 PM Soap actress Signy Coleman - "Heart & Soul" & "I Want a New Drug" by Huey Lewis & the News.

Edward216 05-08-2016, 09:51 PM Zoneboy, mind telling me why you decided to edit my first post in this thread? I really want to know.
Ed.
Zoneboy 05-08-2016, 10:05 PM Zoneboy, mind telling me why you decided to edit my first post in this thread? I really want to know.
Ed.
I edited your post earlier because you credited Bananarama for "Going Down to Liverpool." It was originally done by Katrina & the Waves, but it's the Bangles' version with Nimoy in the video.

It was "Dancing in the Dark."
Ohio8 05-08-2016, 10:22 PM Rachel Hunter was in Fountains of Wayne's "Stacy's Mom."
Jeff Beck's "Ambitious": Cheech Marin, Donny Osmond, and Dr. Joyce Brothers, among others.
Ohio8 05-08-2016, 10:24 PM Matt LeBlanc was in Bob Seger's "Night Moves."
Race's Girl 05-09-2016, 07:04 AM Claire King was in Zodiac Mindwarp's Prime Mover an Hugh Laurie was in Annie Lennox's Walking on Broken Glass

Greg Kilhn also makes a cameo in the end of Weird Al's "I Lost On Jeopardy" as well!

Ohio8 05-21-2016, 07:42 PM Heather Langenkamp was in ZZ Top's "Sleeping Bag."
Edward216 06-06-2016, 02:13 AM Here's one from the 80s that I'd forgotten about that popped into my head today.
Actor LeVar Burton was in the funk-R&B-rock band Cameo's video for their song Word Up! And yes they really did spell the title with an exclamation point. Anyways it's a horrible song with a terrible video. The lead "singer" couldn't sing at all in my opinion. If I remember the song came out in 1984 or 1985 but it was definitely before Burton was on Star Trek: The Next Generation. It's like they're in a dance club or something and at the end of the video LeVar Burton is "dancing" around, but it looks more like he's having a seizure. And the video's made worse by the fact that the lead singer is wearing what I can only describe as a big, shiny red codpiece. It's absolutely ridiculous. I have no idea how or why Burton appeared in this video, I mean he was hosting PBS's Reading Rainbow by then and it was quite popular at the time. Maybe he was friends with the band or something. But the video's not something he should be proud of.
Ed.
robyrob 06-06-2016, 02:56 PM Elisha Cuthbert from 24 stars in weezer's "Perfect Situation" video as the lead singer of a band called "weeze", in which she basically goes nuts, destroys the place and gets kicked outta the band

Holly
You're welcome. :)
Edward216 10-22-2018, 10:38 PM I'd forgotten about this one, but it was several years before the celebrity became well known and they're hard to spot in the video anyways.
Bruno Tonioli (Yes, Dancing With The Stars judge) was in Elton John's music video for I'm Still Standing. But you only see him briefly with the other dancers in the video. And he's also hard to recognize because he and the other background dancers are all done up in this brightly colored body paint, it's all rather weird and really doesn't make any sense. I've sometimes wondered since I've found that out if he helped do the choreography, but it's so strange I don't know why he'd want to take any credit for it anyways. LOL.
Ed.
Jason Lee appeared as a skateboarder in Sonic Youth's "100%."

ilovethe80s 05-22-2024, 06:42 PM Juliette Lewis "Come to My Window" by Melissa Etheridge.
JO Sweet Heart 05-22-2024, 09:06 PM This was the first ever video from the country band named Sawyer Brown released in 1985. It includes the comedian from back in the day who went by the name Gallagher, but when he is first shown beginning at the 1:16 mark, I believe that actress Mariska Hargitay is sitting next to him. She is shown there with him three times. Her last shot is when Gallagher turns around to show the mask that covers up the back of his head.

God bless you and the Sawyer Brown past and present band members and their circle of friends always!!!

Corkys-Place 06-19-2024, 04:17 AM Do the cast of Happy Days count for the 1994 Weezer song "Buddy Holly?"
