In the video, it looks like a member of the band was blind-was that the case in real life? They thought it was very cool I was “the girl.” I got street cred for being a music video girl. Like I said, I never thought I would be so recognized from it. My twin brother said he would see it play in bars in my hometown in Maine and he would tell people (I imagine girls!) that was his sister-they were impressed. Catchy tune for sure-which is why it is still a well-covered song! I certainly never anticipated how popular the video would become, though. I really liked it-went home and couldn’t stop singing hit. I had never heard of them before I shot this with them but I thought the song would be a big hit. They blasted the playback for the song at each take-the song was great. Never worked on something like this-so it was interesting. (People think it’s the sun setting-it’s not.
The last shot is me walking out of the studio on the street. We worked all day, all night, and wrapped the next morning when the sun came up. The guys sang on a stage and I played an artist offstage finger-painting the cover. They had a set which resembled the album cover. It was shot at a soundstage in NYC-Brooklyn maybe? I don’t remember the exact location. John also directed all the Hall and Oates videos so I was interested in working with him. At any rate, I was thrilled-I grew up on MTV videos, a trip to NYC-all sounded fun to me. But the lead singer, Tony Lewis, who sings to “the girl” and flirts with her, was not super tall so maybe that was a factor. They usually cast tall, modelly type girls for those things, which I am certainly not. I guess my first reaction to being cast was surprise. Sounded like fun.ĭo you remember what your reaction was when you were cast? I think it was shooting the following weekend. He approached me and asked me if I’d be “the girl” in a music video he was directing for the Outfield. He was friends with the cameraman, Julio Macat (who went on to be the cinematographer on films such as Home Alone). The director of the video-John was his name-came to the set of Welcome to 18 to watch the filming.

Also at the time I did this video, I had just finished starring in an indie coming-of-age movie with Mariska Hargitay and Courtney Thorne-Smith called Welcome to 18-that’s how I got cast. Steven Bochco Taft-Hartleyed me into the union. I played a Catholic school girl with Ally Sheedy. My very first job was an episode of Hill Street Blues. Other kids in the cast were Crispin Glover, Anne-Marie Johnson, and Crystal Bernard. It was a thrill for me to work with them. I played a high school kid and stars from when I was little played teachers and school administrators: Ricky Nelson (his last role before he died, I believe very nice man), Burt Ward, Barbara Billingsley, Henry Gibson, Julie Newmar, Ken Osmond, Paul Petersen, Jerry Mathers, Harriet Hilliard (Nelson).

I had a series regular role in an NBC pilot called High School U.S.A., which didn’t get picked up. In an episode of The Facts of Life, I played a socialite and I had a recurring role on a bad nighttime soap called Rituals. Hooker I played an abused drug addict and William Shatner gave me mouth to mouth resuscitation-a career highlight for me. Hooker that they were using as a pilot for her-I think they were going to call it Mrs. I co-starred with Sharon Stone in an episode of T.J. In Real Genius I played a teenage girl at the science fair-though I was cut out of the movie. I was Girl on Bus #2-and the first killed, I believe, in the crazy bus ride through hell with Freddy. I had a part in Nightmare on Elm Street Part 2. What music videos, shows, or movies had you appeared in prior to that? How old were you when you appeared in the “Your Love” video?
