Known primarily for her eccentric persona, including brightly-colored, odd hairstyles and a thick Queens accent, Lauper made her mark in the entertainment industry with her debut album, "She's So Unusual" (1984), which produced four Top 5 hit singles, including her signature song "Girls Just Want to Have Fun" and the poignant ballad "Time After Time". Her follow-up albums, while critically praised, generally failed to repeat her early success. Lauper assumed a behind the camera role, co-directing the video "I Drove All Night" from her third album, "A Night to Remember" (1989). She has since directed her own videos which are noted for their arresting collage-like images generated through cross-cuts and dissolves.
It was difficult to say whether Shannen Doherty was best known for her acting or her off camera antics. As Brenda Walsh, twin sister to Brandon and the resident Midwestern girl putting down roots in Beverly Hills, Doherty made her mark on pop cultural history with her four-year stint on Fox's iconic TV hit, “Beverly Hills, 90210” (1990-2000). At the same time she played virginal Brenda, Doherty began attracting media attention – both tabloid and mainstream – for her perceived temperamental behavior off screen.
