80s Flashback Battle: Tiffany vs. Debbie Gibson

After seeing Debbie Gibson's cameo in Katy Perry's latest music video I was feeling nostalgic for the 80s and was reminiscing on the supposed rivalry between Debbie and Tiffany.


I was always a Tiffany fan myself but what about the rest of you? Here's a couple of videos to remind you of them in their heyday.





Of course the two girls have now grown up

as their respective Playboy shoots demonstrate

and all that rivalry is now behind them right? Perhaps not. Here they get physical in a fight scene from Mega Python vs Gatoroid that gets pretty hot and heavy (sNSFW wrestling while covered in food)



Debbie and Tiffany seem to have made up in time for this performance of Don't Stop Believin' (sadly Debbie's singing isn't at it's best)

Katy Perry's 'Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)' is all about the cameos

Check out the folks Katy has appearing in this thing:

  • Rebecca Black (legally required to appear in all videos with Friday in the title)
  • Darren Criss & Kevin McHale (Blaine & Artie from Glee)
  • All 3 Hanson brothers
  • 80's sexpot Debbie Gibson
  • 80s saxpot Kenny G
and
  • Corey freakin' Feldman!

I'm in love with Lady Gaga's madness

Below is the video for Lady Gaga's latest hit 'Born This Way'. It's the extended story-length video so skip forward a few minutes to get to the singing. I have to admit that I've fallen instantly in love with this song, there is something in the combination of vocal melody, beats, electronic effects and 80s nostalgia that just appealed to me at once. I'm not one of Gaga's little monsters but I do think she has some very well written songs and I enjoy the persona she uses to promote them.
