The ULTIMATE in cameos:

 

[zqglass]

this will forever be my favorite celebrity music video

 

[dashionista]

Kat Dennings and Nikki Reed in Hanson's (yes, Hanson) "Get the Girl Back"

 

[CHillDeac]

Zach Galifianakis in a Kanye West video. Zach was still a stand-up comedian at this point and a full two years before he hit it big with The Hangover. Still one of the funniest music vids I've seen. Filmed at a farm in Wilkes County.

 

[EatLeadCommie]

c'mon guys, you're really dropping the ball. This is still the ultimate celebrity vid.

Let's not forget Wil Oldham, a fine actor in his own right.

David Cross/Janeane Garofalo in Superchunk's Hyper Enough

I'm a Superchunk fan but that video may be one of the worst ever.

It's pretty sad the only one I can think of is Jamie-Lynn Sigler in 'Jizz In My Pants'.

ETA Eddie Murphy in 'Remember The Time'

There were several cool cameos in "Remember the Time" including a post-HIV Magic Johnson.

"Liberian Girl" is all late 80s actor cameos.

I love that Jellyfish song- it reminds me of the Beach Boys. Don't know who Robert Knepper is though.

 

[BobStackFan4Life]

Ratt always struck me as one of the more credible hair metal bands
