Do you remember where you were on August 1, 1981? That was the birth day of Music Television (MTV) and the beginning era of a string of music videos which starred a bevy of sultry video vixens. In addition to the bands and singers who created the songs, these young women (some models, some not) often stole the spotlight and their images have been burned in the collective minds of MTV’s earliest generation of viewers. Now, almost 20 years later after many of these video first aired, Snakkle tracks down our favorite 80s video vixens to find out where they are now!

If there’s anything Hollywood hates more than rain, it’s aging. Wrinkles and a sagging anything are more terrifying than long-term unemployment, so it’s no wonder celebs young and old are always trying to keep the march of time off their faces.

Snakkle is seeing a whole lot of mature faces looking way better than they did in their youth, so we honor the celebs defying their digits with some stellar DNA… (wink!)

Let’s look at some supermodels before they were stars.
