The big talk when the clock struck midnight on January 1, 2015, is where are the Hooverboards they promised us in Back to the Future 2? But that was not the only thing that didn’t happen from the ’80s movie that takes place 9 months from now. Lea Thompson shared a photo of Elizabeth Shue and her from the movie and said, “What we don’t look like in 2015.” That is so true! Both actresses look almost the same as they did when they made the film 1989. Something you can see when you watch Lorraine McFly on Switched at Birth and Jennifer Parker McFly on CSI every week.
Granted, if you think about it Thompson’s character is almost 25 years older than the actress, so let’s see how she looks in a quarter of a century. When it comes to Shue, she is a little older than the character she played, so she looks better than the makeup artists thought she would look. Either way, they still look fabulous!
Back when everyone knew who Simply Red was, there were a lot, and a I do mean A LOT, of women who got to know the band’s singer. In fact, according to the rumors, Mike Hucknall bedded around 1,000 women. That’s right, one thousand women.
Now that band is reuniting for a tour, The Telegraph wanted to know if there was any truth to the rumor, so they straight out asked him. The singer told them, “It probably is. I’ve not denied that but I never claimed it. I never bragged about it. I don’t keep count. I’ve no idea, but I would think over a 25-year period that’s probably reasonable to say. But do I want to say it?” Then he added, “No. It’s not what makes me tick. I don’t put chips on the bedpost.†He concluded his answer with, “It’s like kids in a candy store. You can’t believe it. There’s girls chasing you all the time – it’s incredible. When you’re 24 you don’t give a toss. You’re invincible. You can do anything. Your mind is set in a way that the world is just ready and you’re just going to take it all. You’re just going to have a grand time.†With that many women notched in his bed, or not chipped into his bedpost, I think we can all agree he had more than a grand time back then.
He also told the newspaper what changed his ways, and why the band broke up for a few years. It’s an interesting read to learn more about the man who had one of the most soulful voices in the ’80s, so I suggest checking out the article.
It has been 25 years since Spandau Ballet released an album of new music and now the band is finally working on a new one after a quarter of a century according to NME. The musicians broke the news on their Twitter account that they are working with the legendary producer, Trevor Horn, on it but have not yet said when the CD will be coming out. Hopefully they will create some more huge hits that will last the span of time like True and Gold.

For years we have wondered if Kevin Arnold and Winnie Cooper finally had sex in the series finale and Fred Savage and Danica McKellar finally answered that question as part of the special features included in The Wonder Years’ DVD that comes out in the fall. Sort of.
You see, Josh Saviano and Savage say it is left up for us, the audience, to decide, but McKellar reveals the truth. She explains, “In the first draft of the script it said, ‘Kevin and Winnie make love’.” Then she added, “And in the revision’ after your mother (Savage) got involved, it was taken out.”
So the answer is just like our teenage years, when our parents found out that we were going to have a sex, they made sure to put a stop to it. Unlike what happened to us, his mom actually got her way. Which is sad because I think it should’ve been left in. The show started with a kiss, why shouldn’t it have ended with the big bang?
So do you think they lost their virginities in that scene or do you still think they remained innocents?
Kenny Loggins Facebooked this photo of Steve Perry, Tracy Chapman and him from an event they attended yesterday, and I think it is like totally awesome to see these three together. Loggins said he was the only one of them who sang at the Beverly Hills Bar Association dinner honoring Lee Phillips as Entertainment Industry Lawyer of the Year, but imagine if they harmonized as a trio? Their voices together would literally make sweet sweet music.
