Fans Get Nostalgic For Old TV As An '80s ABC Video Goes Viral

The '80s was the decade of decadence as mass consumerism ran rampant. It was the era that helped give birth to the blockbuster movie and introduced strange new TV networks like MTV.

It feels like such a long time ago and it can be difficult to remember precisely what was going on.

Danny Deraney is considered to be one of the best public relations executives currently working in the business today. His client list includes Justin Timberlake, Madonna, and The Rolling Stones.

The 1:15 minute-long clip shows a collection of the '80s most popular celebrities, singing and dancing in support of the ABC television network, and you won't believe some of the faces.

If you look carefully, you'll even be able to see the image of a very young-looking Tom Hanks, sporting a handsome afro. Boy, how the times (and fashion) have changed.

There was no such thing as a smartphone back in the '80s. Social media certainly wasn't around and the internet as we've come to know it today didn't even exist!

Movie studios, production companies, and music labels held all the power. There was very little autonomy for actors and arguably even less for musicians.

Thanks to TikTok, content creators like Charli D'Amelio are making more money than most Fortune 500 CEOs. In 2021 alone, Charli ranked in an estimated $17.5 million.

The only two boxers who brought in higher earnings than Jake was Heavyweight Champion Tyson Fury and the Undisputed Super Middleweight Champion, Canelo Alvarez.

People tend to forget that Justin wasn't shipping demos off to record labels in order to hopefully sign a deal, but rather his mother was filming videos of him singing/drumming and uploading them on social media.

A dinosaur roars the loudest right before it goes extinct. Actors, artists, and musicians have become their own masters and have carved a path so that anyone can become famous. We shouldn't be slighting them but rather celebrating them.
