So many dead people....

Hoods everywhere weep.

Tawny Kitaen was the absolute pinnacle of 80's rock video chicks. RIP

[Timothy225]

Truth. 20 year old me was surrounded by Kitaen clones/wannabes in college.

That shit must have been Woodstock for pubic lice.

[Timothy225]

I wouldn't know - none of 'em paid any attention to me. It was more someone to look at on my way to class, the gallery, or the student center.

ETA: It was pretty easy to see several of the following on campus...

Redheads: Tawny Kitaens

Brunettes: Kelly LeBrocks (this was the majority, looks wise, and the look was all over the Shore as well. High hair and such is a staple for the typical Jersey Girl)

Blondes: Cyndi Laupers (True Colors era - sightings started diminishing after Vibes came out)
Madonnas (not quite as many as you'd think, though, and not as flamboyant in the outfits. Think Papa Don't Preach/Cherish style)

For the ladies, the eye candy was limited to mostly...
Hasselhoffs (mullets and such galore, yo. Full heads of hair on a guy was very big on women's lists - if you were an 80s rocker type, you were golden)

Stallones (LOTS of Stallones. Especially with the "connected" kids with the new sports car every year and reserved parking spots)

Schwarzeneggers (Only a few, and they were primarily the jocks)

Occasionally, and depending where and when you were on campus, you could spot a Siouxsie Sioux or two, some Cramps lookalikes (usually on Friday and Saturday nights when there was a decent act at The Saint and/or The Stone Pony in nearby Asbury Park), and very rarely, the stereotypical nerd, and that was either in class or at one of the fraternities.

RIP Paul Mooney.

[Ingrid]

Oh no!

Also, Charles Grodin.

[BillyG]

WHAAAAAAAAAT the fuck is this story that Mooney raped Richard Pryor's son!?

[Abraham Smashington]

Yeah, that shit surprised the shit out of me And like, everyone knew about it? So now if it's indeed true that makes Dave Chapelle and everyone else who worked with this guy kind of an asshole.

[BillyG]

Richard Pryor is by far my favorite comic, and I've been obsessed his shit since I was a kid. I never heard the story until today. Apparently his kid confirmed he was raped as a kid, but didn't say who it was...but the mom says it definitely happened. Man what a fucked up situation.

[B_Metal]

First I've heard of that. Fucking crazy.

[Anderson]

First I've heard of that. Fucking crazy.

It's a common story in comedy circles. Richard Jr was a big time drug addict and when he was supposedly first addicted and getting desperate...Mooney took advantage.

There's just as many people that say it happened vs. it not happening. But, Pryor's initial response suggests it fucking happened.

[Abraham Smashington]

Holy shit. John McAfee dead by apparent "suicide" .

It's like the end of an era.

[Ingrid]

Hmmmm, suicide to avoid a tax evasion extradition? I’m not buying it.

[Anderson]

I always thought he would die by having Costa Rican women shit on his face until he died.
