There's Something About Mary (1998, Farrelly Brothers)

24/11/2023

There's Something About Mary is a 1998 film directed by brothers Peter and Bobby Farrelly.

The film marked a turning point in both the careers of the directors and that of the two protagonists: in the United States it increased their popularity, while in the remaining countries it made them known to the general public. Various famous people took part in simple cameos; among them the American football player Brett Favre, the actor Richard Jenkins and the comedian Harland Williams.

The film was released in the United States on July 15, 1998, and in Italy on October 16 of the same year. It won numerous awards - including four MTV Movie Awards and three Teen Choice Awards - and received two Golden Globe nominations in 2000. Furthermore, the American Film Institute placed it twenty-seventh in its list of the best one hundred American comedies of all time. The film grossed almost 370 million dollars worldwide and proved to be both a commercial and critical success, which particularly appreciated the political i correctness constantly present in the film.

In 1985, sixteen-year-old student Ted Stroehmann falls in love with Mary Jensen, a beautiful girl who attends the same high school as him; he manages to impress her when he defends from a bully Warren, the brother of the young girl who is mentally retarded. Shortly thereafter Mary moved to Miami and Ted never had the opportunity to see her again.

In 1998, the now twenty-nine-year-old Ted, a sports writer by profession, continues to undergo various psychoanalysis sessions to try to forget the girl, but with poor results. To make Ted give up, investigator Healy finally tells numerous lies by stating that Mary - although she is not married - has four children, she has gained weight, become disabled and has also left for Japan.

According the co-director and co-writer Bobby Farrelly, the film:

"It's a cross between When Harry Met Sally... And Blazing Saddles."

The spec script of the film was finished in 1998, however it was not used until 1997. In that year Frank Beddor - a friend of the two screenwriters who wanted to become a film producer - was struck by the work and managed to bring it to the attention of the president of 20th Century Fox, Thomas Rothman.

Although the Farrellys were well known in the cinema world after the success of their first film, Dumb and Dumber, they initially thought that There's Something About Mary would be their last work; Kingpin, the project they had previously dedicated themselves to, had in fact proved to be a commercial failure for which thay had not even recovered the production costs.

The photography and editing of the film were entrusted respectively to Mark Irwin and Christopher Greenbury, roles they had also held in previous films directed by the Farrellys. Actor and co-star Matt Dillon praised the Farrellys for the characterization of the characters and the dialogue between them, also appreciating "their very distinctive filmmaking style and the fact that in each of their films there is a truly memorable group of characters".

Bobby and Peter Farrelly were aware that "there had been no R-rated comedies for a long time" and that studios were more inclined to finance films classified as PG-13, i.e. those whose viewing was permitted from thirteen years of age; the directors also added that in the period in which they filmed There's Something About Mary, the normality was given by comedies such as Doctor Dolittle, from which they however wanted to deviate.

A guide to Robin Finck in Guns n' Roses for people who can't stand Axl Rose

I've spent months reading, watching and listening to all things regarding Robin's time in Guns so you don't have to.

*extremely long post*

L to R: Chris Pitman, Bryan "Brain" Mantia, Robin Finck, Tommy Stinson, Dizzy Reed, Richard Fortus and Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal. At Download Festival, June 11, 2006.

From Cirque to Guns

In the beginning of 1997 Cirque du Soleil was touring Los Angeles and Axl Rose went to see the show. Matt Sorum (GnR's drummer until then) pointed out to Axl that 'Robin from Nine Inch Nails' was playing the guitar.

"I told Axl to see him and he said, 'That's our guitar player,' I said, 'Bring in Robin to play alongside Slash', but Axl said, 'I want him to play lead.'" - Matt Sorum, 1999.

Robin got a call from Axl and then he started to jam with the band (already without Slash) every Monday, his day off (circus' dark day). In April, Chris Vrenna also joined for a few sessions before he split to focus on his Tweaker project, and Robin brought Billy Howerdel (former guitar technician for NIN) to help him program his sounds, but wound up staying for two and a half years with them.

In June, Robin quit the circus and joined the band.

2 years contract (August 1997 to August 1999)

Over the year of 1998, the band took shape, consisting of Robin and Paul Huge Tobias on the guitar, Tommy Stinson on bass guitar, Dizzy Reed on keys and percussion, Josh Freese on drums and Chris Pitman helping them with writing and engineering. Although Axl was contributing with ideas, he wasn't laying many vocal tracks at that time, as he was allegedly suffering with writer's block.

They wrote at least half of the Chinese Democracy album along with other still unreleased songs and many instrumentals in this period, including parts/ideas Robin had previously come up with during his circus days. Some sources had said they were working on 35 tracks.

They also re-recorded Appetite for Destruction, which was never released but a segment of Sweet Child o'Mine was included in the closing credits of 1999's Big Daddy movie. Axl's intention was to use the entire song, but Slash and Duff didn't allow it, so they made a hybrid of the old version with their new one. You can listen to their segment starting at 2'58, with the second part of the main solo and the last one played by Robin:

It was rumored that Robin recorded an uncredited overdub of backing vocals for the track Mr. Brownstone in the Live Era '87-'93 compilation album. You can listen to it below, around 1'25 min.

Just in time for NIN's Fragility tour v1.0, his contract came to an end in August and soon he went to Bahamas with Nine Inch Nails to begin with their tour rehearsals.

Atlas Shrugged

"I have respect for Axl Rose, I wish him all the success that he deserves and if his album sounds a little industrial, I will take it like a compliment... On the other hand, when we played MTV awards, he made pass a press release announcing that it would cut of his disc all the parts of guitars played by Robin Finck and I find that a little ridiculous, it is a whim of star." - Trent Reznor, 1999.

"And they just said, 'Come over and do some stuff.' It's a long story to be honest and I won't bore you with all the details, but Axl was feeling that he was in a difficult place because the guitarist that he'd been working with on this new album had sort of replaced Slash, because they fell out, sadly. [...] The guitarist that had done most of the tracks had departed and Axl had a real emotional attachment to what he'd done, and yet he didn't want him on the album - and I hope I'm not saying too much here - he didn't really want him to stay on the album because he'd disappeared, you know - so he's feeling a kind of divided loyalty and he said: 'Brian, can you come and do stuff which I WILL LIKE, (laughing) and I won't feel too bad about ditching this other stuff?'" - Brian May, 2000.

While Axl was trying to cut Robin's work out of Chinese Democracy, hiring high-profile guitarists such as Dave Navarro and Brian May to lay guitar tracks, he started recording vocals for some of the songs, like HardSchool (now Hard Skool), Catcher in The Rye and The Blues (now Street of Dreams). Among them, the still unreleased Atlas Shrugged has lyrics which are allegedly about Robin.

An excerpt from Atlas Shrugged lyrics.

Whether it's about him or not, the lyrics go along with feelings of "following his heart" Robin expressed through interviews from that time.

"It was a difficult decision to make because I was so wrapped up in what I was doing at the time and I was proud of the work I'd done. But when it came down to it, I couldn't imagine NIN going out without me or with somebody else. I'm in a good place right now." - Robin Finck, 1999.

Prior to quitting the band to form A Perfect Circle with Billy Howerdel, Josh Freese helped Axl getting in touch with Buckethead. In early 2000 Buckethead was convinced to join in.

3 guitars lineup

"Originally it was gonna be a two-guitar player group. I split forever so I thought and went back to Nine Inch Nails. In my absence they were looking to replace me and Josh Freese, the drummer at the time, had brought Buckethead in to essentially fill the slot I had left. They really liked him but he's kind of a stunt guitar player. He does a very specific thing and he has a real genius sensibility about him. But he rarely plays the same thing twice ever and when you're trying to cruise through 'Nightrain' that just makes it a little (laughs) too different. So they needed someone to anchor the songs. They kept Buckethead to do what Buckethead does and they needed someone else to play alongside." - Robin Finck, 2014.

In late 2000 Robin returned to Guns for the upcoming gig as headliner act of Rock in Rio III Festival. As a sort of warm-up show, the band was booked for a New Year's Eve gig at The House of Blues in Las Vegas. It was the first time Robin performed live with Guns n' Roses.

Robin and Buckethead playing Paradise City at The House of Blues, January 1st, 2001.

With two lead guitarists, rumors that Robin and Buckethead weren't getting along very well began to emerge. And it seems that Axl encouraged competition between them.

"So it's taken a long time to pull these guys together and then have them develop a chemistry with themselves. When we first did our first show in Vegas, Robin and Buckethead didn't know each other at all, and you've got two lead guitar players trying to kill each other. You know, with their abilities. It's like when I tried to bring Zakk and Slash together. That didn’t go too well. (...) It was fun to watch." - Axl Rose, 2002.

Although neither Robin or Buckethead talked about it, years later Tommy Stinson showed his disdain for Buckethead on interviews and soon-to-be a member Richard Fortus has talked extensively about how difficult it was to make a lineup with three guitarists work. I'll return to this topic later.

Skullet

For these shows, Robin appeared with an extreme form of the mullet hairstyle, the skullet. Differing from his previous tours with Nine Inch Nails, this time he maintained the same haircut for the whole touring cycle: from the few performances in 2001 until their last gig in 2002. The only difference is that he straightened his hair in 2002.

Better

Between his comeback and early 2001, Robin came up with a song working titled 3 Dollar Pyramid, which turned out to be Better, the only song released with credits attributed exclusively to him and Axl Rose.

"[Better] was brought in after Josh [Freese] and was written by the band. It was Robin Finck’s song. We jammed it for a couple weeks and then went into the studio and recorded it." - Bryan "Brain" Mantia (GnR's drummer from May 2000 until June 2006), 2009.

Better without vocals

Richard Fortus

In 1999 Richard auditioned for Robin's place. He wasn't the chosen one but became good friends with Tommy. When Paul Tobias stepped out of his role as rhythm guitarist, Tommy called Richard to replace him for the 2002 tour.

Soon Richard and Robin formed a strong bond, which could be seen on as much as offstage throughout Robin's tenure, with Richard stating several times how much he loved working with him afterwards.

Refusing to leave

After the 2002 tour being cancelled halfway through and "Guns' inability to complete an album", Buckethead quit in late 2003. In spite of the uncertainty of their situation as a band, Robin preferred not to leave them this time to tour with Nine Inch Nails. According to Reznor, his choice was driven by greed.

"Robin Finck [was] getting paid loads of money to hang out with Axl Rose and his house was getting paid for. You know what, f*ck you." - Trent Reznor, 2005.

Robin has never touched on this subject, but there are two things that need to be stressed: The album was very close to be finished and Guns was planning to perform in late 2005 - which only became reality in 2006 - so his decision might have been because of it.

2 guitars lineup?

"As far as I know, he [Buckethead] hasn't been replaced, but we already have enough guitarists". - Tommy Stinson, 2004.

"At the moment, Robin Finck and I are the only guitarists in the band. We switch off between lead and rhythm." - Richard Fortus, 2005.

They kept rehearsing as a duo until a few weeks before their warm-up gigs for the European tour at the Hammerstein Ballroom in May 2006.

"It was just Robin and myself, and we were doing rehearsals and Brain, and it was phenomenal, I mean, absolutely amazing. And literally, I think it was two days before we were supposed to do our first show, the energy was palpable. [...] Axl came down, he was like, 'This is the band I've always wanted.' The next day Bumblefoot comes in, and I guess, they found this guy and he came in, and the whole dynamic just completely shifted." - Richard Fortus, 2020.

Bullying Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal

Tommy had stated that they weren't doing auditions for a new guitarist, but Axl's team contacted Ron in 2004. Although nothing happened from it, in April 2006, Axl called him to "jam" with the band while they were rehearsing for their tour. Ron became Buckethead's replacement and stayed with them until 2015. In the beginning, he wasn't treated well by "some" members.

"Well, when I first joined the band, they did not want me in the band. And it’s not me - they just didn’t want a third guitar player. 'Cause at the time they had worked it out for two guitar players. Then suddenly the old manager at the time hits them up one day, and the tour was, like, two weeks away. He said, 'your new guitar player is coming down'. And they’re like, 'what the hell - who the fuck is this?', and I showed up, and they wouldn’t even look at me. For that first tour, you know, I was treated like shit. Like absolute shit. They wouldn’t really talk to me. If I spoke, they’d roll their eyes and walk out of the room. I was made to feel as unwelcome as possible. Until, finally, I had to get a little violent. And then they started realizing that I’m not gonna leave. They’re gonna get hurt. Physically. Then they realized that they couldn’t bully me, and that I was gonna fight at a level they weren’t prepared for. [...] ‘Cause I didn’t know why they were so cold to me, and I realized that they would have treated anybody that way. It was a set of circumstances, a lack of communication from the management that was there at the time, that set it up so it was almost like a stranger thrown into a crowded cage." - Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal, 2013.

Note: By "physically", he meant he "tried to stab three people on stage at a show in 2006", as he told WickedInfo in 2010.

Extreme makeover

"A third guitarist stood apart from the others both visually and sonically, effortlessly tearing through every riff and solo like a man possessed; think Jimmy Page on ecstasy. Even after Rose introduced the bearded, sunglass-wearing phenomenon by name, dressed like a cross between Jim Morrison and Chris Robinson, I still couldn’t believe I was looking at Robin Finck. [...] Exuding a confidence no amount of posturing can imitate, he brought a searing intensity to each Guns song with impassioned intricacy and soul. [...] Finck was great before his apparent bohemian awakening, but this was something else entirely. He was essentially running through a gallery of world-renowned portraits and landscapes, the best of their time and sacred to many, casting his own colors and impressions onto each canvas. Somehow, blasphemy be damned, he made improvements." - Antiquiet review of Guns N' Roses' performance at Gibson Amphitheater, December 16th, 2006.

Robin's definitive departure

On April 4th 2008 NIN.com broke the news that Robin was back to the fold with a picture of him at the studio. Without knowing for sure Robin's position, Axl showed being open for a return.

"Last I was aware, he had some interest in touring, though I can't say what that means until then. In our opinion, he's made things a bit awkward publicly, but that's just his way." - Axl Rose, 2009.

Unfortunately, even with the Chinese Democracy's release in the end of that year, Robin didn't come back afterwards.

One night reappearance

The guitarist had a surprise appearance on March 12 2012 at House of Blues venue in Los Angeles to perform his song, Better, and that was the last time he got up on stage with Guns.

That's it, most of the info and rumors here I've gotten from GnR forums: MyGnRforum.com, a-4-d.com and GnRevolution.com, so a big thank you to everyone.

Fatboy Slim - Praise You: A Phenomenon Among Dance Floor Classics

Released in 1998, *Praise You* became one of the biggest hits of Fatboy Slim's career, securing its place among the classics of electronic music. As an iconic example of the Big Beat genre, the song stands out with its energetic rhythms and creative use of samples. The vocals are taken from Camille Yarbrough’s 1975 track *Take Yo’ Praise* and presented in a modern arrangement. However, what sets this track apart from an ordinary dance song is its fun and unexpected music video.

The video for *Praise You* made music history thanks to the brilliant vision of director Spike Jonze. Jonze, portraying a fictional character named Richard Koufey, performed an impromptu dance routine in front of a shopping mall with a fake dance group called the *Torrance Community Dance Group*. Far from professional productions, this low-budget and improvisational-style video resonated with viewers and generated immense sympathy. With its absurd yet amusing aesthetic, the clip quickly reached cult status and won multiple awards, including *Best Direction* at the MTV Video Music Awards.

The music itself is highly creative. With its repetitive rhythms, simple yet impactful vocals, and dynamic production, *Praise You* creates an explosion of energy wherever it is played. The track carries both a nostalgic and timeless feel, leading to its frequent use in commercials, movies, and events over the years.

Still played on dance floors today Praise You remains

494. Seventeen Magazine, March 1997 - part 1

(1996)

So, story time. Right after I paid like, $30 for this issue on eBay, my Xterra's engine block died. Boy did I feel foolish. Suffice to say, this issue will probably wind up on my Etsy shop soon. psst, I'm having a sale right now in honor of my dead car.

This was the last Seventeen prom issue I remember owning. I lost interest in fashion in 1998 when I was a freshman in high school and had to start wearing clothes from Lane Bryant. The plus size section at my local Deb was gone. I also knew by then that I was never going to prom because I was the ugliest girl at my high school.

This dress Duff is wearing gives vibes of that time Shirley Mansion from Garbage wore that all white dress at the 1996 MTV Movie Awards:

(source)

I mean if you're dying your hair, don't you want to go full on dying your hair? Why do you want to only half rear end it?

This beautiful messy curly look appears a lot in this magazine. Get ready.

So I still don't know what Chelsea wore at her prom. This is the only photo of her we have at her pre-prom party :

Is that Marimekko?

I'm here to talk smack about this DIY bracelet. You know those beads fell off in 20 seconds.

By the time I knew what American Eagle was, nobody at my school was wearing lipstick that color with their AE. I remember the "smart" kids wearing AE in high school around 1999.

Jordache and White Mountain always had the most outdated clothing ads! That black and white outfit is straight out of 1994, 1995.

Every year when we look at the prom issue together, we find the same variation of a black and white dress.

This color was everywhere. I thought this was the issue that had my dream prom dress in it, but I think that was Teen's March 1997 issue. It was a shade a little darker than this and it was more of a ballgown. I can't find it right now because looks like archive.org has removed all the issues of Teen. (part 2)

He established himself as a pop and R&B artist with his Grammy-winning debut album “Justified” and hit singles such as “Cry Me a River” and “Rock Your Body." Timberlake has continued to release popular albums, most recently releasing "Everything I Thought I Was" in 2024 and "The 20/20 Experience" in 2013. Timberlake's innovative music videos and impressive live performances have made him a household name. He has tried his hand at acting as well as music. He has demonstrated his comedic talent by appearing in films like "The Social Network" and the "Trolls" series. In addition, Justin has had an incredibly successful and multifaceted entertainment career, transitioning from a boy band member to a highly acclaimed solo artist and actor. N'SYNC N'SYNC was founded in 1995 by Lance Bass, Joey Fatone, Chris Kirkpatrick, Timberlake, and JC Chasez. The group's name, which is frequently stylized as "*NSYNC," is represented by the last letter of each member's first name. The American market, NSYNC, which was managed by Lou Pearlman, a former Backstreet Boys member, first became well-known in Europe. Their rise to prominence in the mainstream music industry was aided by hit songs like "I Want You Back" and "Tearin' Up My Heart" from their self-titled debut album in 1998. The band became famous when their second album, "No Strings Attached," came out in 2000. The album broke a record by selling more than 2.4 million copies in its first week on the market in the United States. Hit songs like "It is Going to Be Me" and "Bye Bye Bye" topped the charts and cemented NSYNC's status as one of the most well-liked performers of the time. 2002–2004: Justified and Super Bowl XXXVIII controversy

At the 2002 MTV Video Music Awards in August, Timberlake performed his debut solo single, "Like I Love You," which reached number 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number 2 on the UK Singles Chart. His first solo studio album, Justified, came out in November and debuted at number two on the Billboard 200. It sold 439,000 copies in its first week, which was less than the 'N Sync albums before it. Over ten million copies were sold worldwide and over three million in the United States. Its R&B influence, provided by hip-hop producers The Neptunes and Timbaland, was complimented by music critics. The musical direction of the record, he commented, "I just want to do R&B. It's what I grew up listening to". The album produced the two top-five singles "Rock Your Body" and "Cry Me a River." 26 Solo Success

Solo Achievement Timberlake collaborated with Pharrell Williams on music when NSYNC went on hiatus in 2002, but the idea of going solo had already germinated in 2001. Timberlake had written a single titled "Gone" for Michael Jackson in 2001, but after Jackson turned it down, NSYNC recorded it instead. Jackson got in touch with him after the album came out and said that he wanted to do the record, but only if it was a duet with Timberlake and him, not with the whole band. "The first time ever really felt the confidence to ," Timberlake says of their phone conversation. In August 2002, Timberlake released his debut solo single, "Like I Love You," followed by his debut solo album in November that same year, "Justified." By the summer of 2003, Timberlake was touring with former "Mickey Mouse Club" castmate Christina Aguilera as co-headliners on the Justified/Stripped Tour. Solo career in music and acting roles A part of NSYNC, Timberlake established himself as a songwriter, and his split from long-term girlfriend Spears became the inspiration for several tracks on his acclaimed solo debut, Justified (2002), particularly “Cry Me a River,” which won a Grammy for best male pop vocal performance. In 2003, Timberlake joined the Black Eyed Peas for a performance of their popular song “Where Is the Love?” He gained further notoriety during the halftime show of the 2004 Super Bowl, where he was involved in a widely publicized “wardrobe malfunction,” purposefully revealing a part of co-performer Janet Jackson’s outfit. Timberlake’s second album, FutureSex/LoveSounds (2006), influenced by Prince, included collaborations with producers Timbaland and Rick Rubin and won four Grammys, including best dance recording for “SexyBack,” which dominated the Billboard Hot 100 for seven weeks. Throughout the early stages of his solo career, Timberlake faced mixed reviews from critics, yet few would dispute that his solo output, rooted in rhythm and blues and blue-eyed soul, had evolved beyond his dance-pop beginnings, allowing him to sell millions of albums along the way. The Yellowstone Club The most well-known homeowners and club members of Montana's ultra-exclusive Yellowstone Club are Justin and Jessica. In 2015, they purchased their property for an unknown sum. Located in Big Sky, Montana, the Yellowstone Club is a private club spanning 15,000 acres. The resort boasts some of the world's best private ski slopes, spanning 3,000 acres. In addition, there is a five-star restaurant, an 18-hole golf course, and much more. Other proprietors of Yellowstone include Jack Kemp and Bill Gates. According to reports, Justin and Jessica intend to bring up their kids here so they will not have to deal with the spotlight of Hollywood. The initial cost of membership in the Yellowstone Club is $300,000, followed by an annual fee of $30,000. Acting and Other Endeavors Justin has expanded his career to include acting, featuring in movies like "Alpha Dog" from 2006, "Social Network" released in 2010, and "Trolls," which came out in 2016. Additionally, he established his own fashion brand, William Rast, and was a co-founder of the social networking platform Myspace. Movie Career

Film Career Starting his acting career on television, Timberlake was soon seen in the 2001 teen film Longshot, which was used as a tool to promote the young and budding artists, and girl and boy bands. Together with his bandmates, Justin Timberlake was cast in the movie because he had been in the boy band NSYNC. He was then cast in the 2005 thriller Edison alongside Kevin Spacey, LL Cool J, and Morgan Freeman, which debuted to mixed reviews. He appeared in the crime drama Alpha Dogs the following year, which premiered to favorable reviews at the Sundance Film Festival. He then voiced the character of Arthur Pendragon in the animated comedy-fantasy film Shrek the Third in 2007. In the 2010 drama film The Social Network, which is based on the life of Facebook's founder Mark Zuckerberg, he was cast as Sean Parker, the founder of Napster and a key player in the social platform's expansion. Despite the criticism of his subsequent film, Runner Runner, the film went on to become a commercial success in 2013. Ben Affleck, Gemma Arterton, and Anthony Mackie were also cast in the action-thriller. The same the year, Timberlake was seen in the dark comedy Inside Llewyn Lewis. The movie opened to positive reviews and was declared a hit. In the 2016 animated musical buddy comedy Trolls, which also starred Anna Kendrick, Zooey Deschanel, Russell Brand, James Corden, and Gwen Stefani, Timberlake played Branch. Read the full article

Chauncey Street creates the Nickelodeon’s Kids’ Choice Awards

The blood was quickly draining from the faces of Gerry Laybourne and Debby Beece.

Chauncey Street Productions –Albie Hecht, Alan, Fred– was describing a scene of hopeful optimism of an annual kids' award show Nickelodeon should produce.

"There'll be the biggest movie stars in the world while 10,000 kids will be screaming at the top of their lungs!"

"But why will any stars come to a Nickelodeon kids' awards show?"

In 1988, Nickelodeon was only three years into its Fred/Alan revival. Even with the network at #1 in the ratings, Nick management was, smartly, still working like the channel was an underdog. It allowed the staff to keep their creative and business edges, striving to be the best.

As much as Nick had grown, the general perception was that The Disney Channel was bigger. It wasn't true, not by a long shot, but Disney clearly had a bigger brand name in the public's –and the media business's– imagination. So the underdog needed to keep up the pressure.

We thought an annual Kids' Choice Awards, executed well, could be Nickelodeon's nail in The Disney Channel coffin. After all, Nick was the most popular kids channel on television, by far. This show would be the proof, like ESPNs ESPYS and MTVs Video Music Awards had done for their channels.

Gerry and Debby became convinced, as did the MTV Networks higher ups, that with cable in 50 million American homes in the late 1980s, and Nick at #1 in the ratings (not to mention the dominance of Nick-at-Nite), in addition to kids, parents –and please, movie stars were parents too!– were more excited about Nickelodeon than anyone realized. And the chance to be in the presence of a live Nick show would draw out the crowds.

Alan: A nice detail is what Gerry told me years and years later. “When you guys told me the idea I thought I was going to throw up. I was so worried celebrities wouldn’t come because we were still new. But I also knew you were right and we had to do it.”

It was still an uphill battle to mount the show. Budget would be an issue for several years, convincing Universal's Hollywood theme park to give us one of their pavilions for free was, to say the least, a triumph of negotiation (we promised that we’d feature the tour in the show!). And those movie star guests? That took a while.

From the very beginning, we were thinking about what the actual physical award would be. Albie was drawn to the blimp version of Nick’s logo that Corey & Co. had designed for Fred/Alan. It was his brainstorm that insisted the dirigible would double as a kaleidoscope.

Dan Schneider, Debbie Gibson, Brian Robbins frightened by King Kong on the Universal Studios Hollywood tour KCA 1988

The first show host was Tony Danza, then flying high on "Who's the Boss," Nickelodeon network ID singers, Eugene Pitt & the Jive Five and pop sensation  Debbie Gibson. And maybe most prophetic of all,  guest presenters included stars of the sitcom "Head of the Class" Dan Schneider and Brian Robbins. "Prophetic" because Dan went on to create Nick's iconic live action comedies like "Drake & Josh," "iCarly" and "Zoey 101." And Brian? Well, after several years of being a hit television producer with partner Michael Tollin ("Smallville," "All That," "One Tree Hill"), in 2018 Brian became the president of Nickelodeon.

Alan: Other details: We couldn’t get Eddie Murphy that first year. We couldn’t even get Judge Reinhold to accept on his behalf. Thank goodness John Ashton did the appearance. (He was the cop sidekick.)

Also if I’m not mistaken Alf won best actor for TV. Hey, they were kids.

Albie went on to become the Nickelodeon's president of production where he produced all the Kids' Choice shows until he becamse Spike TV's founding CEO in 2003. Not for nothing, after a steady build, the 1998 10th Annual Kids' Choice Awards was held at UCLA's Pauley Pavilion. The sold out capacity? 10,000 screaming kids.
