Now that there's an all-80s music video channel on the Roku, we get to play "name that sexist/racist stereotype & trope bingo". Anything by Motley Crue before "Kickstart My Heart" will usually get you to about 80% of a bingo, and if that doesn't work they do have "Thriller", "Smooth Criminal", and even Cameo's "Word Up" featuring a VERY young Levar Burton. One thing I noticed that I didn't back then is in the video for "She Bop" by Cyndi Lauper. I'd straight-up forgotten Alice Cooper's in the damn thing, but that's not what I noticed.
...Is that ADAM BALDWIN whose motorcycle sidecar she occupies??? Cuz it
REALLY looks like a super-young Adam Baldwin. Someone please find this out!!! (if I wasn't leaving town on an unexpected trip to say goodbye to a friend short on time, I'd look it up myself...)
