Here’s the music video from 1985 that was sponsored by Nancy Reagan’s anti-drug campaign. Some notable participants: New Edition, Toni Basil, David Hasselhoff, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Tootie from the Facts of Life, Boogaloo Shrimp (aka Turbo) from Breakin’, and for a delicious bit of retro-irony… Whitney Houston.

Best line:

“I see them now in Camden where I live and think ‘Fine in your twenties. But when you’re 30? Sorry – you look like a twat”

Videogame Theater presents, Pac Man: The Insatiable Hunger. It’s like VH1’s tragic Behind the Music… but for video games… as told by puppets.
