Oh hey, it’s two MCs and one famously over-sexed megastar. and one Madonna’s “Virgin Tour” strutted across American in 1985 with its tongue firmly in cheek. Her opening act was none other than New York hip hop mainstays the Beastie Boys, but at the time they were just three punks who looked like they crawled out of the sewer. In a recent interview with Jimmy Fallon, the Beastie Boys Ad Rock (not pictured) discussed how much Madonna’s fans had the group, and how much Madonna loved that she had the worst opening act ever.

He told Fallon, “We played the first couple shows and they hated us. She realized that [the audience] hated us so much, that by the time she got on stage, it was the greatest thing ever." Hey, Madonna didn’t become the most famous singer of the ‘80s and ‘90s by not understanding her audience.

Good Heavens Robyn Hilton is smoking hot, but she wans’t much of a conversationalist. Her appearance on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson in 1974 is truly one of the weirdest viewing experiences. Carson tries to lead her through a standard interview but she has trouble coming up with what shows she’s actually been on. Early on in the interview changes tactics and just starts talking to her like they’re on a very awkward first date.

The entire interview is truly surreal and worth watching in its entirety, especially if you need a daily dose of something cringeworthy.
