Johnny Rivers peaked at #3 on the Hot 100 with a solo cover of the Four Tops' 1964 hit, "Baby, I Need Your Lovin'", which got him booked on The Ed Sullivan Show. Rivers would follow this up with another Motown cover, this time Smokey Robinson's "Tracks Of My Tears":
A NY detective moves to California not only to become a PI, but also an actor. Unfortunately, viewers voted with their remotes, and Half Nelson, a spring replacement series from Glen A. Larson & 20th Century Fox for NBC, was gone in 2 months in 1985.
Before "Home Alone" & "Goodfellas" made him a box office attraction in the 90's, Joe Pesci top-lined in the title role as "Rocky" Nelson. The title refers to Nelson's relatively short size, not a wrestling hold that the show actually gets its title from. Nelson joins up with the Beverly Hills Patrol, and, well, I might as well say it, he looks like a football running back opposite three of the game's greatest defensive stars, Fred Williamson (his first TV gig since, I think, Julia), and Miller Lite pitchmen Dick Butkus & Bubba Smith, who'd co-starred in Blue Thunder a year earlier. Victoria Jackson moved over to Saturday Night Live a year after this series ended.
Half Nelson is also notable in that its other star attraction is Dean Martin, in his final series for NBC. The Celebrity Roasts were, or, had come to an end by this point. Martin also sings the show's closing theme. Robert Jason co-wrote & sings "LA, You Belong To Me", the opening theme.
This sample episode features a rare appearance by the Bobby Troup Trio, marking the return of Troup (ex-Emergency!) to NBC. John Beck, who also guests, had appeared with Butkus on Matt Houston three years earlier.
30 years after the original Charlie's Angels had solved their final case, ABC decided to dust off the concept, but there were too many problems, leading to a quick hook.
The new Charlie's Angels had a lot to live up to, and not just the original series (1976-81). There had been the movies featuring Drew Barrymore. ABC entrusted writer-producers Alfred Gough & Miles Millar, fresh from Smallville, to breathe fresh life into the franchise.
The problems?
*Location: The series was relocated from Southern California to Miami. This was the biggest mistake.
*Casting: Millar & Gough went with mostly unknowns for the three leads, the most famous name in the group being Minka Kelly, who at the time had been the armpiece of Yankees star Derek Jeter (they subsequently split). Former football player turned actor and Old Spice pitchman Isaiah Mustafa appeared in one episode at least as a detective. Millar & Gough wanted Robert Wagner as the voice of the never seen Charlie Townshend (voiced by John Forsythe in the original series), but when Wagner had a scheduling conflict, Victor Garber (ex-Alias) was brought in instead. Ramon Rodriguez was cast as John Bosley, repackaged here as an ex-hacker.
*-Scheduling: ABC, perhaps wary of past reboots, slotted the new Angels on Thursdays, just as they had done with the reboot of Night Stalker a few years earlier, when the original series had always been on Wednesdays, either at 9 or 10 pm (ET). I think this version was on too early (8 pm).
*-Missing the Spelling touch: Sony, which owns the rights to the franchise, produced this themselves, leaving Spelling Entertainment out of the loop. This, then, would explain the shift in setting from California to Miami, since a majority of Spelling's crime dramas were based in SoCal.
*Plotting: In order to fit Minka Kelly in the mix, one of the three other Angels was killed off in the opener, as you'll soon see. As a result, this played more like another Gough-Millar bomb, the adaptation of DC's Birds of Prey, with so much angst.
Let's check out the opener:
At DC, Fradon co-created Metamorpho, and penciled most, but not all, of the comics adaptation of Super Friends, beginning with issue 3, and ending with issue 41, at which point inker Romeo Tanghal was promoted to penciller while Fradon left to work on Brenda Starr. Fradon also pencilled Plastic Man when DC revived the series in 1976 for a short run, and drew Plas, seemingly for the last time, in Super Friends 36.
Fradon retired from Brenda Starr in 1995, and continued contributing to comics until her final retirement last month.
Fradon briefly worked at Marvel, but a planned issue of The Cat never saw the light of day, and a 1-shot of Fantastic Four was not very popular with fans.
To give you some idea of her art style, well, you might like her take on Wonder Woman and a certain polarizing political figure.
Just three weeks into his NBC series, Tennessee Ernie Ford performed his signature hit, "Sixteen Tons", with a prerecorded background behind his live vocals.
In the early days of the Nashville Network, the one that later was bought out by Viacom, and has morphed into today's Paramount Network, the channel built a solid lineup of programming, but because of it being a niche channel, it doesn't get the flowers it deserves.
One such series was Yesteryear in Nashville, which was an interview series with country legends and then-current talents. Archie Campbell (Hee Haw) served as the series host, which meant he often got to interview friends and colleagues, such as, in this case, Hee Haw castmate Roni Stoneman.
Prior to the New Hampshire primary, a robocall that used an AI impersonation of President Biden tried to discourage voters. It didn't work, and Biden won the state anyway.
Now, it comes out that a New Orleans magician, Paul Carpenter, says he was behind the AI robocall, claiming he did so at the request of a Democratic rival, Dean Phillips. The Phillips campaign is denying any involvement, saying that Carpenter acted on his own volition.
General Hospital had been on the air a year when it spun off The Young Marrieds. That it took some 30 years before there would be another spin-off from General Hospital should tell you about the series' viewer base and their preferences.
The Young Marrieds lasted 17 months (October 1964-March 1966), replaced by Dark Shadows, giving ABC a 1-2 punch on the back end of their daytime lineup. The cast for Marrieds included Ted Knight, Charles Grodin, Brenda Benet, Paul Picerni (ex-The Untouchables), and as seen in this sampler, Frank Maxwell, who would do a lot of primetime work after Marrieds ended, including another ABC series, The Second Hundred Years.
If you go to Dunkin' to get your coffee, or donuts, or bagels, or whatever, you're bound to see the edited version of this Super Bowl stinker in continuous loop.
Jennifer Lopez is in the studio, presumably prepping a new CD. Husband Ben Affleck shows up, with Matt Damon & Tom Brady in tow. My advice to those two is that while this was fun for them, it was stomach churning swill for the rest of us, and you'd think they'd know better than to play along with Affleck and his latest bout of stupidity.
The "Dun-Kings" look like they belong at the nearest NASCAR event....
Today, the Survivor Benefit Plan has been folded into Social Security. In 1972, it was introduced by the Department of Defense under then-President Richard Nixon, perhaps intended (though I don't know for sure) for Vietnam veterans and/or their families.
This ad features Phil Silvers, who was making a bit of a comeback in the 70's after appearing in Disney's "The Boatniks" with Robert Morse, and Michael Bell (ex-The Bold Ones).
I'm reading that conservatives are having a collective cow over another pop star, this time because she dared to cross over to the country charts.
That would be Beyonce, who dropped a pair of country-themed singles a week ago, in line with a Super Bowl commercial she made for Verizon. Thing is, she's not the first African-American to climb the country charts, and won't be the last. I grew up listening to the late Charlie Pride, for example. In more recent times, Darius Rucker spun off from Hootie & The Blowfish to begin a solo career that for now has been short-circuited by his recent arrest on DUI charges.
Rapper Cowboy Troy ran with Big & Rich a few years back.
Big Al Downing, not to be confused with the baseball pitcher of the same name, was a contemporary of Charlie Pride.
So, Beyonce experimenting with country shouldn't be a big deal, should it?
10-20 years ago, no, it wouldn't, but conservatives today are easily triggered. They ignore the examples noted above, and they whine & cry because another big name pop star is going country.
20 years ago, Sheryl Crow & Kid Rock scored a crossover hit with the ballad, "Picture". Today, because of Kid Rock's political leanings, you probably wouldn't see that in the same light. Subsequently, Bruce Springsteen & John Mellencamp experimented with country music.
Last year, Luke Combs covered Tracy Chapman's "Fast Car", making it a hit all over again (Chapman's original version came out 35 years earlier), and two weeks ago, at the Grammys, the two performed a duet of "Car", which, to my knowledge, didn't set off conservatives the way Beyonce did.
Let's check out "16 Carriages". The lyrics appear on the screen as the song plays.
Donald Trump is on the hook for nearly $450 million in New York, can't really conduct business there for three years, per a judge's decision on Friday. So what does he do?
The Annoying Orange showed up at a sneaker convention in Philadelphia on Saturday to shill his own brand of shoes.
SAY WHAT??
Unlike, say for example, Patrick Mahomes, I'm not a sneakerhead, so I wouldn't have known about Sneaker Con until the headlines started appearing yesterday. However, that's where the Archduke of Affluenza was on Saturday, in addition to a campaign stop in Michigan where he did his usual whining & crying about his legal & political ills.
To his credit, Trump is only charging $400 a pair, as opposed to the infamous Big Baller shoes hawked by LaVar Ball a few years ago for $500 a pair. Still overpriced, and, as I've read, they only look special, but they look like another brand's shoes being repainted, branded, & priced. Seems Trump is resorting to another grift to pay his legal bills because he refuses to pay out of his own pocket.
It was the topic of discussion on MSNBC:
From season 9 of The Carol Burnett Show:
It starts as a pantomime sketch, with Carol as The Charwoman, who has made her way under the big top, and fangirls through the empty arena, drawing the attention of Weary Willie (Emmett Kelly). The rest is pure magic.
Reality and Donald Trump are not friends. The Archduke of Affluenza is finding out, one case at a time, that the rules do apply to him after all, and they always have, despite what he was taught as an entitled youth.
Earlier today, Judge Arthur Engoron ruled that Trump must pay $355 million for years of fraudulently making financial estimates on his properties and such. He is banned from conducting business in his former home state for 3 years. His sons, Don, Jr. & Eric, are banned for 2 years.
Life has been one big grift after another for the Trump men. However, NY Attorney General Leticia James earned a major victory in court, and addressed the press afterward.
Walking along Congress Street this morning en route to the bus stop, I caught sight of a flier circulating and condemning Governor Hochul for what appears to be her position on the Israel-Hamas war in the Middle East.
Our final Video Valentine of the year is one that carries a global message.
Jackie DeShannon's "What The World Needs Now" has a message that still resonates today, amidst all the hate and rhetoric in this country and elsewhere.
From season 1 of Sha Na Na:
Johnny Contardo sings lead on a boss cover of The Five Satins' "In The Still Of The Night":
Two repeat offenders have picked up fresh Dunce Caps this week.
We have to start, of course, with the oldest narcissist in America, Donald John Trump, Sr., who was subtly trying to persuade----or is that pressure?----Taylor Swift to not endorse President Biden, claiming credit for some of her success because of a law he signed six years ago.
Problem is, and Dumb Donald is too engrossed in his own fantasy world to realize this, Swift was already a millionaire before the Orange Toddler set foot in the White House. She's doing just fine, thanks, but all this means that Trump, who has a problem with assertive, strong willed women, tried playing the bully card with T-Swizzle, and failed spectacularly. Of course, he got roasted on X (formerly Twitter), even though his self indulgent rant was on Truthless Social, which doesn't allow dissenting opinions. He had to leech some attention away from Swift, and, well, that won't end well if he gets barbecued by the Swifties.
Empty-G complained that the people in her district, if not also the state as a whole, were labeled as racists & rednecks. The truth hurts, doesn't it, Empty-G? You've pandered to these folks to be elected to two terms in Congress, and likely a 3rd, unless a comparable challenger comes along, but it bothers you more because, warts & all, you've been exposed as being one of them. You spend more time clout chasing than any work you're supposed to do for your constituents. Larry David and the Curb crew made you look bad, so you're having a big cry. Well, boo hoo to you.
The ThunderCats are on the loose again.
The popular action franchise from the 80's has returned to comics with a new series from Dynamite, the first salvo in a licensing deal with Warner Bros Discovery, which will also see Cartoon Network's We Bare Bears & The Powerpuff Girls coming later this year, along with an adaptation of The Wizard of Oz, and, in May, Space Ghost & Jonny Quest are set to return.
Writer-artist Declan Shalvey only handles the scripting chores here, and has rebooted the classic origin from 1985, such that Lion-O ages into an adult when his suspended animation pod cracks while en route from Thundera to Third Earth. Aside from a few other minor tweaks, it's pretty much the same story you remember.
Rating: A.
I have just two words for DC's Titans event, Beast World, which just wrapped. Epic fail!!!
Writer Tom Taylor is revisiting an old plot line developed by Marv Wolfman in the 80's, but what this miniseries didn't need or want is another effort to make Amanda Waller public enemy #1 in the eyes of fans. I get the idea of making Waller more ruthless, erasing the imagery from the 80's when she was introduced, and modeled after actress-singer Nell Carter. Modeling her after her portrayer in the "Suicide Squad" movies, Viola Davis, would be just fine, complete with the nasty attitude. The miniseries was built around Beast Boy and, oh, did they ever screw up.
Rating: C--.
J. Torres is sharing the writing chores on the now-ongoing Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries, but, oh, did he ever lay an egg in issue 2, out now. Solomon Grundy is meant to be the featured villain, but Torres gives away the game waaaaaaaay too early, earlier than normal, when you think about it. Artist Scott Jeralds worked at WB for a few years as a writer-director on shows like Krypto The Superdog, but he gets everything on point.
I am begging them to actually bring in the Wonder Twins before this series meets its inevitable end.
DC is experiencing delays with Batman '89: Echoes, with issue 2 now set to drop the first week in March. Apparently, artist Joe Quinones is having some issues that are being kept under wraps. Bill Willingham and Mark Buckingham's revival of Fables is crawling to the finish line, as it, too, has fallen behind to the point where it's being released every 6-10 weeks. I can chalk it up to Buckingham's detailed artwork, but who knows?
Fellow blogger Sam Wilson noted the other day that Dynamite may be having problems getting their Jonny Quest book ready, as solicitations for a Free Comic Book Day 1-off in May don't list a creative team. I'm thinking Dynamite may be trying for a secret surprise. We'll see come May 4.
Over the last few decades, the Super Bowl hype has been just as much about the commercials, and how much advertisers are willing to spend, as the game itself, adding more water cooler talk for the morning after.
Independent Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., son of the slain US Attorney General, dug up an old campaign ad made for his uncle, John F. Kennedy, 64 years ago, and revamped it for today. Unfortunately, the RFK Jr. version is not available on YouTube at the moment, but if you wonder where he got his inspiration, here's the original:
Ever since the Kansas City Chiefs eliminated the Buffalo Bills in the AFC divisional playoffs three years ago, the NFL changed its overtime rules for the post-season. Those rules were tested tonight, in Las Vegas, as the Chiefs sought to become the first team since the New England Patriots won back-to-back Lombardi Trophies 20 years ago.
The game started the same way it did four years ago. San Francisco took a 10-3 lead into halftime. The lone touchdown was on a gadget play, with receiver Jauan Jennings throwing a touchdown pass to Christian McCaffrey, whose father, Ed, won titles with the Niners and the Giants.
Jennings would also catch a TD pass from Brock Purdy, duplicating the feat of Nick Foles, who caught and threw TDs for Philadelphia 6 years ago vs. New England.
But, predictably, Patrick Mahomes brought his team back. All the frustration on both sides of the ball subsided in the 2nd half. Niners fans had to be cringing, knowing history could repeat itself. Harrison Butker's 4th field goal of the game sent it into overtime.
San Francisco won the toss for the extra session, and elected to receive. They marched down the field, only to be stalled at the Chiefs' 5 yard line, leading to a chip shot field goal for rookie Jake Moody.
Back came the Chiefs again. If Mahomes wasn't throwing to Rashee Rice or Travis Kelce, he was running it himself. With time running down in the first overtime quarter, Mahomes hit Mecole Hardman, who came back to Kansas City earlier in the season after the Jets traded him back, with the game winner. Pandemonium in the Chiefs' skybox and everywhere else.
Mahomes and the Chiefs have been in four Super Bowls in the last five years, the lone exception being when Cincinnati upset them in the AFC title game two years ago, only to lose to Los Angeles.
For all the right wing conspiracy theories being bandied about the last two weeks regarding Swift and a possible endorsement of President Biden, that never happened. Still, Florida Misrepresentative Matt Gaetz raised a fuss over "Lift Every Voice & Sing", which is considered a National Anthem for the African American community, but it was just noise in the wilderness.
Moody & Butker rewrote the history books with record setting field goals in the 1st half, but a missed extra point by Moody almost was the difference in the game, if it wasn't for overtime.
From season 5 of The Andy Griffith Show:
The Darling brothers (real life folkies the Dillards) are back at the Taylor house, and Andy sits in for a round of "Ebo Walker":
Long before Listerine began expanding its brand to include additional flavors like "cool mint" (peppermint), it was just a basic antiseptic mouthwash. In 1969, Warner-Lambert, then the makers of the product, served up this bit about an aspiring rock group's rehearsal marred by some bad breath. Actor-singer-songwriter Clifton Davis makes one of his first TV appearances as the guitar player.
The Commodores burned up radio airwaves in the summer of 1981 with the peppy "Lady (You Bring Me Up). The video features Lionel Richie and the guys playing soccer with a group of women......
Four years ago, Kansas City defeated San Francisco, coming from behind at halftime to do so. Sunday night, in Las Vegas, the two teams meet again in Super Bowl LVIII. The 49ers, the team of the 80's with coach Bill Walsh and quarterback Joe Montana, have lost in their last two trips to the big dance, as, in addition to losing to KC in 2020, the 49ers lost the Harbaugh Bowl to Baltimore, and some folks thought that, even though Jim Harbaugh isn't in San Francisco anymore, there would've been a rematch with the Ravens.
After Kansas City beat Baltimore 12 days ago to punch their ticket, there were accusations coming from obvious non-fans that the game was rigged. It wasn't. Baltimore's defense disappeared in the 2nd half. The whining from conservatives, of course, was due to the Chiefs' current #1 fan, singer Taylor Swift, whom right wing screwballs think will make an announcement at halftime to endorse President Biden's re-election campaign. I wish they'd just get over themselves, but they're just too paranoid to think straight.
In beating upstart Detroit, Purdy earned himself a chance to break the 49ers' Super Bowl hex, after his injuries last season left them a game short of the big dance with a loss to Philadelphia. He has weapons like Christian McCaffrey and Deebo Samuel. Mahomes, of course, has Travis Kelce, and a supporting cast on both offense & defense that isn't settling for "been there, done that". Hardly.
So what happens? This will be a shootout, unlike last time. Kyle Shanahan will play back the tape of Super Bowl 54 to remind his team of where they went wrong. There are even prop bets available on Swift, for cryin' out loud. If the 49ers obsess over avenging their previous defeat vs. Kansas City, it's the wrong road to take. They need to focus on the here & now to win their first title in nearly 30 years. Otherwise, it's going to be business as usual for Kansas City.
The pick: Kansas City by 3. Of course, I could be wrong.
"Tonight, I Celebrate My Love" put Peabo Bryson on the Top 40 map in 1983. The duet with Roberta Flack soared up the charts, peaking at #16 on the Hot 100 and #4 on the Adult Contemporary chart. You can bet there'll be calls to oldies channels for this one over the next few days.....
The Guardian Angels were founded in the late 70's or early 80's by Curtis Sliwa, who later became a radio talk show host and made a failed run for Mayor of New York City a couple of years back. The Angels' reach extended upstate, and I remember they did a recruiting drive around 1982-3 in downtown.
40+ years later, the Angels' reputation has been soiled. On live television.
Sliwa, in particular, drank the Trump-Ade. Years earlier, he'd been forced to admit that the Angels had fabricated some exploits for publicity purposes. In 2024, they're back to lying, and they had the right audience for that on Tuesday night, when Sliwa was interviewed by Spam Hannity of Fox No News. Farron Cousins has the video footage.
While Dick Powell & Four Star had the rights to adapt any and all of Zane Grey's novels for Zane Grey Theater, I don't think Grey ever wrote about the Buffalo Soldiers, African-American Army regiments in the old West.
Season 4's "Mission" paints a portrait of one such regiment. Sammy Davis, Jr. stars, along with Hari Rhodes.
Pay close attention to the preamble before the opening credits. It sounds like Olan Soule (ex-Captain Midnight) is the narrator.
Embattled attorney Alina Habba whined on Newsnacks that the recent defamation trial against former president Donald Trump, in which E. Jean Carroll was awarded more than $80 million in damages, was like living in the Twilight Zone (italics mine, of course).
Considering that your client is so afraid of the real world, Alina, I'd think you have it backwards. As usual. Trump, remember, was taught at an early age that the rules don't apply to him, which turns out to be no longer the case. We are in the era where captains of industry, such as Trump, are now being held accountable for sins of the past, such as in the Carroll cases.
That infamous Access Hollywood tape looks more and more like damning evidence that could sink Trump's chances of going back to the White House.
Hot City was a syndicated series that lasted two months in 1978, airing mostly on stations owned by Metromedia (i.e. WNEW in NYC). Producer-director Kip Walton had worked on American Bandstand, Happening, & Where The Action Is for Dick Clark & ABC, but what did him in was the fact that his show wasn't cleared in a lot of markets. For example, aside from WNEW, which was available on cable in the 518 at the time, no local channel picked up the show, simply because there was no room on the schedule. In those days, Hee Haw was the preferred choice on a Saturday night at 7 (ET) at my house. The fact that Hot City debuted in August of '78 didn't help.
Disco was in its waning days. Around the same time that Hot City hit the air, Clark was mounting a 1-shot special for NBC, Le Disco, that aired in place of a Saturday Night Live rerun. His Live Wednesday bowed a few weeks later, and tanked.
Let's take a look at the opener of Hot City, headlined by hostess du jour Linda Clifford and the Sylvers. Animation by Canada's Nelvana Studios. If the announcer's voice sounds remotely familiar, it should to 80's viewers. Shadoe Stevens was in the booth, 8 years before The New Hollywood Squares made him a national household name.
Gallery peaked at #4 on the Hot 100, #5 on the Adult Contemporary, and topped Cashbox's pop chart with 1972's one-hit wonder, "Nice to be With You".
The clip is taken from VH1's My Generation (1st series).
Today, Bold detergent is no longer part of the Procter & Gamble family of laundry products, having been sold to a smaller concern years ago.
In 1966, P & G decided to try a series of musical ads to promote the product, but in this case, they had voice doubles for the two actresses lip-synching the tune. Maggie Peterson (The Andy Griffith Show) & Jackie Joseph are the neighbors. Y'think maybe the ad agency should've asked about Maggie singing on The Andy Griffith Show as Charlene Darling?
In 1979, James Earl Jones was a hot commodity in Hollywood. He was the voice of Darth Vader in "Star Wars". He played Alex Haley in Roots. Steven Bochco had moved his tack from Universal to MTM Productions, and cast Jones in Paris, which spent nearly 4 months on CBS (September 1979-January 1980) before it was cancelled.
Jones had the title role as police detective Woody Paris, who had a side gig as a criminology professor. Nice life to have. Lee Chamberlin (ex-The Electric Company) played his wife, and he would eventually marry co-star Cecilia Hart after the series ended. Michael Warren, two years before Hill Street Blues, another Bochco creation, co-stars.
The Rap Sheet provides the intro:
Toward the end of the 70's, the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band shortened their name on a temporary basis to The Dirt Band, and managed a pair of modest hits under that label.
"Make a Little Magic" was the title song from their 1980 album, with vocalist Jeff Hanna joined by Nicolette Larson, two years removed from her cover of Neil Young's "Lotta Love" topping the Adult Contemporary chart. A year earlier, Linda Ronstadt joined the band for the title song to "An American Dream". The funny part is that up until recently, I didn't know, since the ladies were never identified by the DJ's on local radio back then......
The clip is taken from Solid Gold, circa May 1981
The National Urban League commissioned this star-studded spot from the Ad Council. I'll help you out by identifying the easy ones:

Peggy Cass (To Tell The Truth).
Arlene Francis (What's My Line?).
Ray Charles.
Jim Backus (ex-Gilligan's Island, Blondie).

You'd think they'd slip in the 5th Dimension, who originally recorded "Let The Sunshine In" for the "Hair" soundtrack a year earlier....
One week ago, Cody Rhodes (Cody Runnels) won his 2nd straight Royal Rumble, becoming the 1st man since Stone Cold Steve Austin in 1997-8 to repeat, and the 4th man overall (Hulk Hogan 1990-1, Shawn Michaels 1995-6). The Peacock broadcast ended with Rhodes locking eyes on Universal champion Roman Reigns, who was in a skybox with Paul Heyman.
Six nights later, Rhodes is going in another direction heading in to Wrestlemania, taking place April 7-8 in Philadelphia.
As Smackdown closed out Friday, Rhodes was made to look like a chump, giving up his chance---for now, anyway----to avenge his loss to Reigns last year...
Let this be a warning to right wing dingbats like Spam Hannity, Charlie Kirk, Stephen Miller, and others.
You do not want to see this side of Taylor Swift if you keep buggin'.
"Bad Blood" was the 4th single off 2015's "1989" CD, and the video is loaded with guest stars. Kendrick Lamar does the rapping, while Taylor surrounds herself with friends like Selena Gomez (ex-The Wizards of Waverly Place), Lena Dunham (Girls), Paramore singer Hayley Williams, and Mariska Hargitay (Law & Order: Special Victims Unit).
