Eddie and Rebbie: Back in the day…

That happy couple is Eddie Murphy and Rebbie Jackson back in 1984. Rebbie Jackson had her hit single “Centipede” (written and produced by lil bro Michael and a damn good song regardless of the strange lyircs) and Eddie Murphy was seriously funny. Today, Rebbie Jackson looks terrible and doesn’t even try to sing and Eddie Murphy is all weird and not funny. Amazing what time can do. Back in 1984, many folks thought Eddie Murphy would be a legend in the comedy world in future years. Now his brother Charlie gets the laughs. As for Rebbie, when you come from a family where Michael and Janet had such rich solo careers, you just can’t top it. I think the court case involving Michael broke her down. Shame. I had a serious crush on Rebbie back in those days. Just something about her.

Time’s something else, eh?
