Back in the early ’80s, Rick Springfield was the hottest teen idol out there. He had huge hits like Jessie’s Girl and I’ve Done Everything for You and he was starring on General Hospital as Dr Noah Drake. So it should be no surprise that child actress Helen Hunt was mad about him like so many other girls her age.
Well the 19 year old was working on the same lot as him in 1982 and she told Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live that she left a note on his car windshield declaring her love. How did he respond? Let’s just say Don’t Talk to Strangers is not only one of his songs it is what he does.
Sadly, the Oscar winner never heard from her, but she was able to share that story almost 35 years later. I wonder how he will react when he hears this? He will probably say, “I hate myself.” Imagine what could’ve been if he would’ve acted on her affair of the heart?
Back in the ’80s, when a teenage girl would close her eyes, she would dream dream about Night Ranger. Yet she was talking in her sleep about The Romantics. Hoping for the Human Touch of Rick Springfield.
Today, she can tell her Sister Christian to Celebrate Youth because here are the three musical artists from her Rock of Life all together and on tour. If they come to a come to a city near her, then she can tell all of them What I Like About You!
Don’t Walk Away, this post wasn’t that bad! So I will leave you with some wise words and tell you to “Love Somebody”. What you thought I was going to tell you, “Don’t Talk to Strangers?”
Finally, as Night Ranger would sing, “Goodbye,” for now!

Rick Springfield is promoting his new movie Ricki and the Flash, and yesterday he talked about it on Jimmy Kimmel Live. To make his appearance more interesting, he brought along some never before seen video. That video was a band rehearsal he did in 1980 for the biggest song of his career, Jessie’s Girl. Before it was a huge hit, it was in the development phase.
You get to see him perform the song with his band for the first time, and we finally find out who that song was written about.
So if you are like me and have wanted to know who is Jessie’s Girl, well now we know. Did that revelation make you Bop ‘Til You Drop or do you wish he was going to love somebody else?

Back in 2004, Rick Springfield played a concert at the NY State Fair and woman claims his buttocks hit her when he fell backwards and knocked her unconscious for around 10 minutes. In the 2007 lawsuit, she says that she is still suffering from the injury and is not able to work because of it according to her lawyer, Kenneth Goldblatt.
The singer went out into the crowd and that is when Vicki Calcagno claims his backside met her face and then she hit her head hard against the floor according to Syracuse.com.
The case was declared a mistrial in 2013, when a woman at the same concert claimed she too felt his human touch and did not see anyone else knocked down or injured at the time. That woman says she was not hurt from the incident.
The retrial is happening now and Rick Springfield testified yesterday. According to CNY Central, he said that if he did hurt someone, he would take responsibility for his actions.
Since the trial is ongoing, we will have to wait to find out what if any action will be taken against Springfield’s buttocks.
I learned from Hard to Hold that he has nice a$$, I just never realized it was so dangerous.
Rick Springfield posted this photo of himself holding a sword made out of cheese and cheese crown, and he looks like the King of Cheese. Which is just like his music! Just joking, I love his music!
