Getting your music video played on MTV was the goal of almost every musical act in the 1980s and 1990s. (Yes, kids: MTV actually used to play music videos instead of a 24/7 loop of Real World/Road Rules Challenge). And there was nothing to make your music video stand out like have a celebrity - or multiple celebrities - show up for a cameo.
Who could deny the celebrity firepower of Rodney Dangerfield, Milton Berle or Ally Sheedy? One of them appearing in your music video = instant hit! We break down the best - and strangest - celebrity music video cameos ever. Jeff's had enough of Michael and Richard's shenanigans, so he's brought in some help - his brother Sam!
It's double the Hopkins, double the judgments.

Eddie Murphy (and others) in "Remember the Time" by Michael Jackson Kim Basinger in "Mary Jane's Last Dance" by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers Christopher Walken in "Weapon of Choice" by Fatboy Slim Every Supermodel Ever in Freedom! 90 by George MichaelRichard's Choices
